Back from detox
 
Hi everyone. I just got back from a 6 days in detox (physically only needed about 4½ days, but the rest really helped mentally). I'm so glad I went; it was such a positive experience; met some great people.

Got a plan for moving forward, just need to work out the details. But for tonight at least back home alone in my apartment. I am however I'm feeling pretty strong (though to tbh honest I did get a few new meds :wink3:). Hoping maybe they'll be some people on chat later though (yeah, I knew it's xmas eve and all :emb).

Anyway, just wanted to check in, let you know it went great - better than I expected, and just wanted to say thanks for all the encouragement last week :wave:.

I'm sure I'll be having questions on tx options and people's opinions soon, but just looking forward to relaxing and having a computer and my phone back tonight, not too mention a t.v. I can watch whatever I want to on :biggrin:.

:thanks

I'm glad you're feeling strong :) Remember this feeling the next time you have an urge or craving. You CAN do this.

It's really good to see you back and that it was such a positive experience for you.

Going took courage! You are well on your way I think. Glad you are back home and appreciate the simple things we often take for granted.

So glad to see you back and I'm happy you considered detox as a positive thing. I know how scary it was at first, but it doesn't take long to settle in. Thanks for checking in! (((HUGS)))
