If I read another post correctly, I think today makes one month for Rae.
Congratulations!
Aww aren't you sweet. You always bring a smile to my face. Technically, I quit on Feb 2nd and today is Mar 2nd. There is only 28 days in Feb so I don't know if we can say 1 month but if you want,LOL go ahead. It feels like a year since I have taken a pain pill. Everyday gets a little easier, I guess. I still have the lack of energy and need to start working out again. My idea of working out these days is going to the bathroom or throwing a load of laundry in the washer-Ha-Ha... That is sad. Sometimes I wish I just felt normal but then again what the heck is that? Right!
Thanks Danni for the post it was very nice of you and meant a lot to me... Rae

Yeahhhhh!!!! Way to go Rae!!!!! Who cares about a day or two, you are clean - NO MORE NARCOTICS IN THAT BODY!!! Did I forget to mention, that along with Kerry and Danni, I think you are so beautiful and also have a heart of gold. Hey, I'll tell ya what - we've got some good looking addicts around here, lol!!!!
Love ya girlfriend,
Marie
Love ya girlfriend,
Marie
LOL~ Marie. Thanks for the compliment. I don't think anything is better than being a beautiful addict,LOL
As far as the heart of gold that was very nice of you. I can be very loving and at the same time be the biggest bit*h in the world. I am in one of those foul moods today. I know it's just the time of the month but I feel like pulling out my hair and screaming. One minute I am happy about being clean and the next minute I think damn this is boring. I had so much fun taking pain killers. I was more out-going, had so much energy and felt I could do anything. You know I think I am just having a lot of mental cravings and I am just beating myself up. I will get over it, just having one of those days...
So how are you Marie? Really? How do you feel? How are the kids? Rae

Rae..........WAAAAAA-WHOOOOOO! Congratulations! 1 month, 28 days, who's counting? It's enought to warrant a celebration!
You'll get used to the lack of energy thing. Or maybe you'll get past it. I still haven't, it's just become a way of life, but I am much older. I am fine mentally, though, and hope you are, too. You sure sound good with your sweet posts all the time!
Keep it up!
Thanks Carol,
You and I posted at the same time. Now you see how I really feel,LOL
I'll get through it, I know it all takes time. My biggest thing is going out and doing things. I was so used to taking a pill too go out etc. Sometimes I look at " normal people" well non-addicts should I say and I think wow they can cope. People go to work, take care of kids, clean the house etc and still have energy to work out.. I just feel like I will never get to that point. I am just really depressed today. I have been getting like this though around that time of the month for a few months now. I seriously need some PMS meds,LOL....
Anyway, thanks for posting me. I can always count on you to cheer me up... Hope you are having a great day! Rae

Thanks Kerry,
Yes you know I never had PMS either until resently. Just within the last 3-6 months or so. I will be 32 in October and man look out when I am getting ready to start. I could kill someone to. I am just a major bit*h and I can't control the moodiness and the tears. You know last month I took Midol and it really helped. It has caffiene in it to so it gave me some energy. I think I should take 2 right now,LOL seriously... Hope you are having a great day and feeling better than I am.. Rae

Rae, I wish I had better words to say how proud I am of you!!! I'm proud of your accomplishment, I'm proud to have you for a friend, I'm just plain proud of you!! I haven't been online in two days because of puppy cord problems (again!). But I finally got to get on and spotted your thread. This board is a better place because of you. You tell it like it is, but you're sweet when you do it. What a nice combination for a person! You're loaded with common sense and experience, and you're just a friendly and likable person. So congradulations on your huge accomplishment.....and no kidding....it's huge. In fact if you ask me, a week is huge. Thanks for being a cool friend, thanks for being a great friend and the opportunity to know you. You're the best!!!! Love you girl, Kat
