Telling your Doctor is a huge step in your fight with this demon!

That's a wonderful plan mama! Helping others is the best way to keep busy and get that dopamine flowing.

Yay Mama! You made 30 days! You are so awesome!

Oh mama you know you can do anything.....save baby snakes.....cook for the homeless....help other recovered addicts......remain clean for 30 days! The possibilities are endless! As long as you remain in recovery the world is open to you...you can live your life anyway you choose...be and do anything you want to! That's a fact Mama!

Thank you clean. You are free to!we can make a difference!

No more "I hate myself" , "what's wring with you?" "When will you get caught?" "Your family is going leave you" NO MORE!

I'm doing what you told me. I'm chasing my recovery like I chased the pills.

Oh gosh I put a LOT of energy into addiction. And it's still hard. It's hard changing everything about my life, my SELF. But it's so worth it. And every bit of advice I got here at SR helped me.

That's awesome Mama! No more guilt, no more fears, no more anxiety, no more worries!

Did you enjoy your day with hubby?


That's funny because I was thinking the same thing.....you must have put tons of energy into using....because you are pouring it all into your recovery!

We had a great day. I served him breakfast in bed. Ham, cheese and onion omlette and fried potatoes and onions with toast. I told him to stay in bed all day! He did and he loved it. First day off in over 60 days. I served him dinner in bed to lol. Did y'all have a good day?

It doesn't seem real to feel this good. I keep thinking "So THIS is what LIFE is like" I know hard times will be ahead when this "honeymoon" phase is over but I have faith. In God, in myself, and in my family. But I still have fear if I can do it. Can I really just walk awY like this after 20 years?

I think the most important thing I have learned (I learned it here) is STAY BUSY!!! I had to force myself to in the early days and I still have to give myself a mental push in the morning. But I just thought if all of those people on SR got through it by staying busy so can I. I know it's OK if you can't but for me it helped.

You already walked away. But the way I view my own recovery....it isn't so much about walking away from something as it is walking toward something. You know I visualize myself at a crossroads one way lead to darkness, anarchy, death and distruction and one way lead to light, health, happiness and a good life. I chose the light.
