I was just wondering who is still up. I was going to go to an NA meeting tonight, but I think I will stay home. It isn't until 10:30pm, and I have to be at work tomorrow @ 8am. The last one I attended ended at 12:15am, and I didn't get home until almost 2am. I got lost in downtown Denver, and I wasn't going to stop for directions.lol
Anyway, I am just looking for a little support tonight since I will miss my meeting. I am not being very nice to my hubby, but I am trying. It is day 10, and I am very proud of that.
So if anyone has any suggestions of hope (if that makes sense).
I hope everyone is having a great night.

Britney, why are the meetings at 10:30, is it a NA meeting or an insomniacs meeting?
Just seems kinda late for a meeting.

Having a hard time at home. I need to get some stuff done (like laundry), but I have so little energy, that I can't go to the basement to do a few loads. All the x-mas decorations are in boxes in the living room, and I am worn out.
I keep snapping at my husband, and can't seem to stop.
It has been so long since I did laundry, that I am trying to wear skirts, because I no longer have clean socks. That is really bad. lol
Anyway, I always have such a hard time at night, I do pretty well durring the day, but after the sun goes down, so do I.

They have meetings before that, but my husband is a UPS driver, so you never know when he is getting off (especially durring the holidays), so the only one earlier than that is at 7:30pm. And he is never home by then. I would go to one in the day time, but they smoke there. And even though I smoke, there is a BIG difference between someone who smokes, and someone who has sat in a smoke filled box for 90minutes. lol
If I went there durring lunch, I would not be able to return to work without a shower and change of clothes!!!

hey britney,
maybe you could try and relax, take a nice hot bath, maybe some tea and call it a night. don't be too hard on yourself. what you are going through is tough. the christmas decorations will be there tomorrow or the next day. :)
maybe tomorrow you could wash some socks though. hehe.

Anna,
Good luck tomorrow, if you two have any questions about sub post them here on the board one of us will answer.
Britney,
Funny you should mention that the night is rougher for you, the same thing happens to me, I feel my worst about 5 everyday. I've been trying to workout when I dont feel so hot and that helps. Some days are worse than others.

thanks john! keep your fingers crossed for us!
I am always soooo COLD. Does anyone else experience that???
Brit, I used to always be hot when on the pills, now I seem to feel the cold more. I used to swaet a lot and have clammy skin
I hear its been real cold in your area.

Have a question...What good does the sub.'s do if you have WD's from them as well. Is the process the same as the LT's? Trying to decide (when I do come off) to just cold turkey or get on something else.
Thanks, Allie
Thanks, Allie
Allison, the withdrawals from sub are very, very minor if your off them quick, by quick I mean about two weeks, although I talked to a guy at the docs office who was on sub a month and his withdrawals were very minor.
I ct twice from percs and the third time was a bear and I had a lot of trouble, thats why I tried sub. The sub withdrawals were about a 1 on a scale of 1-10 while the first time I ct the withdrawals were a 3-4, the second time a 5-6 the third time a 9-10.

very cold here. Tonight it is going down to 4 degrees. Way to cold for me!!!
I have lived here all my life, but I have never had a problem with it until now. So I think it must have to do with the w/d's.
