Hey all, can someone please pick me to be on there team. I wanna bicker and fight too!!!! Just cause I'm new doesn't mean I can't name call with the best of them.
This place is pretty pathetic!!! People come here for help, not to read a bunch of threads that do nothing but call others names or ridicule people.
Sorry if I'm coming off as an a-hole, but it's true.
Hey Irish...how's the sweating tonight?
It's been coming and going. Took a hot bath lil bit ago. Not sure how well I will sleep tonight.
Try not to overthink it. Go lay down with a book and let your body relax, your mind let go.
If you need to take another bath, do it.
I really hope you sleep tonight.

Thanks, i hope so too. I really don't want to put anything in me to force sleep.(Nyquil or Tyl PM) Hoping it will come naturally. Today has soooo tough. Between the muscle aches and the stomach cramps. It's been almost 2 whole days now, I'm hoping only a couple more before some of these feelings begin to subside.

Hi Irish -
You may want to try some Epsom Salts in your bath water. They help with the muscle aches. Bananas (potassium) also help with leg cramps. Plenty of fluids, as well!!
Hang in there - you're doing just great.
Love,
Marie

Temptations have been around me today, but I have found ways to avoid them. This has to get easier. I'm afraid of work tomorrow. Not having the web all day and not being able to reach out to anyone makes for a long, long day.
I know that I have come too far to give in. Just ned to be strong!

Keep up with that positive thinking - try to stay busy as possible. Just look at how far you have come. I'm sure you dont want to start over!!! :o)
Even if you cant get to the web tomorrow while at work, just know that you have all of us thinking of you and we know that you will do the right thing!!

Hey Irish,
At work tomorrow, reach out to your higher power. If you don't have one yet, you can use mine, I call Him God, use Him He'll help ya'. You don't need to get on your knees infront of everyone, just ask Him silently in your head, a million times if you have to, to give you the strength to get through the day. Ask to have the obsession lifted, and for the desire to stay clean/sober. He'll hear you, and if you do the foot work I garentee He'll help ya'. But for now, just worry about tonight, go to bed clean and sober tonight your a winner. We only have to not pick up for one day. It's better to have a day then to be trying to get one.
Take care.........Bob

Good luck tomorrow Irish - your mind is imagining something worse than reality. Sure you will feel crummy, but havent you gone to work with a really bad cold, or backache, etc. You babied yourself, got home, had a cup of tea/soup, read a book or put on your fav show, cuddled up and went to bed. Sometimes we really need to pamper ourselves and we seem to save it for when we are sick sooooooo pamper yourself tomorrow - you will feel good about yourself. Dont forget to add a little lipstick and blush lol so you wont look as bad on the outside and noone will be the wiser. Look how fast time has already flown since Thanksgiving, before you know it you will have 5 days under your belt and your "illness" will be on the mend!
Great advice Bob (as always).........Love Marie
I want to thnk everyone (again) for their continued support and words of encouragement. Not sure if I would have made it this far with out This place.
Although I haven't posted alot, I have done quite a bit of reading. It's really a blessing that everyone can share their experiences and be there to talk.
Thank you all once again.
