Actually, tomorrow makes a week (I haven't been really keeping count because I didn't get sick this time)....

Physically, I'm fine.... Mentally, it's a lot tougher. I went to work Sunday night and my back hurt sooooo bad..... I was really at the point where I would have gotten some pain pills or I had to leave - I chose to leave work early and go home.

Addiction to pain pills are so much worse because they are normally started because of a real medical problem - chronic pain. Once you kick the addiction, the pain is often still there (unlike getting addicted to coke or ecstasy where many people do it just to be high)...... and my job is physically demanding (although it doesn't look like it... lol)....

But I am planning on being strong and staying strong, and SOBER. Even if that means just working a couple of hours each night but working more often.... I'm considering all of my options.....

It won't be easy....
You can do it. I have the back pain..and it is a b****..
I also think that these pills keep a stronger mental hold than anything..
hang tough....
I am off to get out of the house..I will ttyl..
