EN- its day 17 and im still alive

Oh my God what a ride.... I took a couple days off of here to try and finish getting ME back! Last night i slept 4 hours...STRAIGHT....I feel myself starting to come back little by little. Im still not doing too hot with my energy level but Ive been making sure i get my butt up and moving. I never realized how much of myself-my true self i had let go while usin an abusin. I went from cant keep me still with superglue to cant get me off the couch without a pill. Im still struggling with that 1st pill- u know the early morning "coffee pill"- other than that i have no desire to take those freakin things!

I want to thank u again for stickin thru this maddness with me and everyone else im sure youve helped- your sobriety has been a true inspiration. Will keep you posted and u please do the same!

Girl I hate to say it but addicts HAVE TO hit rock bottom before they can rise. This $hits a cruel game to say the least. Worst part is its everywhere so even when u kinda think u wanna stop then u meet a new hook up and its on. It took me almost loosing my children, marriage, home- everything ive worked 25 years to have to wake me up and decide to come clean. A friend recently told me the only way out of addiction is to loose- loose everything you have or loose your life! Unfortunatly i dont have a magic answer if i did i would offer it on a gold platter. I do know it will never happen unless
HE truely wants it to happen. Just stay strong- get ur boy on here to talk and read threads- that was one of my biggest problems when i was using- i was scared to detox! Its by no means a fun experience but In the end its going to be so worth it. But u will find there are some awesome ppl on here ( like EN OPP

)that can help, be it recommeding a OTC med to help the withdrawl or a shoulder to lean on- maybe just knowing there are ppl out there going thru the same thing will wake him up. Please keep us up on how u are doing. Good luck and God Bless
