Hello fellow addict... i must say first that i am still using vics.. i am clean from cocaine for years now but have substituted pills.. sometimes i don't know if i ever got all my feelings back but after just 2 days of weaning myself off of pills i am looking forward to feeling just a little bit again.. today a couple of times i experienced being relaxed and not on edge so much.. i feel like i want to be touched again and found myself laughing inside at something stupid which i don't even remember what it was.. as you can see by the time i am unable to sleep which i do not like at all..i remember after getting free from cocaine that the longer i went without the fewer and fewer the desire got.. i remember my sponser telling me (on a really bad day) that the good news was that i don't have to use because of it (whatever was going on),, well now that was novel ideal to me! It never occured to me that i could choose not to use.. i guess deep into the addiction it wasn't an option..the scariest thing for me was friday nights.. what to do besides get high? I had to keep really busy and force myself to do things i had totally lost interest in.. it took awhile before i could enjoy them again.. and of course recently i have lost interest again because of the vics.. but i am holding firm to the belief i will get thru this.. and life is good. God is good.. love from a fellow addict

I am on day 6 and using the sub. Right now I really don't feel any emotions. On the other hand I have been none stop thinking about what if 's. For example "What if I don't know how to act around other people sober" or "what if they don't like the new sober me." No one knows that I am sick except for my husband. I asked him last night what if my sober life is boring?
He replied how could your life be boring with me and our daughter? He also said when your sober you'll be able to catch up with us and or actives.

I still have a hard time feeling. I have no interests, no energy, I don't want to go to school, nothing. that, in itself is scary. Then, I get really bored and just want pills. People invite me out or to dinner and I don't ever want to go. Takes too much energy. I just want to feel normal again! i think of the times before I ever took pain pills and I was so ernergetic and joyful. I don't think I'll ever be there again and that is sad and maddening. But all we can do is stay on a clean path and know that we are doing the right thing....for ourselves and everyone we love. Jess
hello fa,
i stopped 2 weeks ago off of methadone . i stoopped c/t for 13 days since then
i am back to using but i haven't gotten over 3 pills per day, before i was up to about 10 to 15 per day. when i was off everything i did was weird i would just bust out crying some times i would get real edgy at times and yell. i guess the scariest thing for me is the pain i am in most of the time that maybe it won't go away or maybe that i will never feel normal again. i have a great fammily and my wife is very supportive. if i can control it as i have been now i may stay here but i need to gain control over things and my med's
thanks to you all
