Thanks friends.

I feel normal, which is great

I had a minor accident this weekend and I'm immobilized, walking with the help of crutches. I'm a bit depressed because of it. The day that happened I craved really hard for the first time, and I had the opportunity to relapse, because weed was right there. But I kept strong and did not cave in.

So I'm very proud of myself. 100 days

FlyingDutchMan

I can imagine, that's great! 100 days is a long time!

Good for you that you didn't relapse. Makes you stronger the next time you feel cravings.

Thumbs up for you Pacoloco!

Congrats Paco!
How are you feeling about it? Do you still get thoughts of using or cravings?

FlyingDutchMan

Wow Paco, great milestone. Let me know how it will be when I get there (in a month and a half)!

Pacoloco

I'm actually feeling low these days, because I'm still injured and walking with a crutch, it sucks.

I don't have any cravings and I don't even think of using, I don't know why.

4 months is nice but it is a really short time if you think about it. It is just the beggining. But it is a progress and it's worth the effort.

I hope you'll be able to retire the crutch soon Paco

I never thought those things could have such an impact, but I am seeing the same thing happening to my girlfriend. What's the prognosis? How long will you have to use them? In the mean time: stay strong!

Hey there Paco (I'll drop the loco, as it appears that has slipped away!) Commendations for 4 months. And I can tell you exactly how it happened, without even knowing you, One Day at a Time! And, if you live long enough, don't use or drink, one day at a time, that year will be here before you know it. And, guess what, you will start understanding things and it will be hard for anyone to stop you from sharing YOUR experience, strength and hope, and as you do you will find a new freedom and a new happiness like you've never experienced before. Your devastating weakness will be your source of strength, best wishes

Few more weeks I guess. But a couple months to return to sports and such. It sucks but it's nothing too serious. Nevertheless, I'm having a hard time having a positive attitude about it. I'm really depressed these past few days, but it will pass soon. Life is a struggle, always. I guess it just gets tiring sometimes.

Thanks for asking. Have a great day.

FlyingDutchMan

I feel for you man! And (today especially) I can relate to that struggle-of-life-sentence (the words, not the punishment). Better days are ahead for us. It must be. Wish I had some good tips for you but at the moment I don't. Just an advice to check in here as often as possible if it makes you feel better.

FlyingDutchMan

How's life on crutches Paco? Hope you're feeling more positive these days and I hope the feeling-low hasn't lead to cravings. Drop us a line!

Pacoloco

I'm not on crutches anymore, I'm better and having no cravings. Thanks for asking. I'm seeing a physiotherapist, rehabilitation is going well, just need some effort and a lot of patience. I hope soon I'll be swimming in the sea again, which is what keeps me in balance. And how are you, my friend?
