I wish I could give you some fabulous 12 step advice or something.
I decided to come clean with my doc and husband. I guess I have been off the stuff for 3 weeks now. I started celexa (worthless, as they all are).
I keep thinking that my body is probably clean and that i could just start the whole thing again...
One thing that has been helpful to abuse instead (ha ha ) has been neurontin. Probably won't do a thing for your pain, but it could take the edge off of temptation.
Take care,
Diane
> I feel your pain, and your love of pain free time. It seems that if you take them on and off you are thinking that you till be fine. The problem is that dealing with life without the high sucks. Not only does it suck but schlepping yourself along sober takes so much out of you. The mood variances from the withdrawl symptoms is certainly worse then almost anything. I have been clean for almost forty two hours. I pray to God that when I go to work no one offers me anything, even more so I pray harder that I have the strength to say no thanks. Oh man, another day, another dollar....hopefully just not another high.
