Amity, you're a strong willed person, you know this won't break you!! So, you've had a lapse..not a relapse, you have to use this and turn it into a positive thing. You have been doing brilliant with youir recovery since i joined this bopard, and you'll continue to do that. Don't be too hard on yourself, i know you'll be feeling bad, but you can and will bounce back. Take care, Kev

I have been on/off the beer benzo mix for months myself EVERYTIME i feel so crappy i get freaked out i'll get drug tested and fail. It's not worth the stress yet I do it a few times a month totally stupid. I could lose A LOT by getting a dirty drug test. Sorry this was about you. Wanted to say you already know it's a bad path to go down. Addiction is terrible. This is a lapse .....not a relapse. Those lapse can turn quickly into more be very careful do everything to stop that.
How you feeling today Amity? Hope you're feel;ing better today. Hope you have a good wednesday. Let us know how you are, Kev

thanks guys, i was mad at myself, i guess i just have to revisit it for some reason--how it happened is thatMy sons dad has decided he wants to be a father--he does this about once a year, and I ended up having to take him down to see him(this town is the root of alot of pain and angst for me) he knows im on methadone and I always carry a bottle in my purse, well he was in withdrawal, so there was a trade and bam I was taking xanax and drinking beer, this is what my last relapse was from and it lasted for 6 motnhs and was hell to get off of, I only will take the bars, anthing less isnt worht my time--the bars arent either, but you know what im saying, so i had a bad bad withdrawal. so now im stuck with this issue and alot of others, he had his little girlfriend hidden in the bedroom--it was weird how everything happened, i really need to get it all out but i havent the time--im at work, it just all threw me off, i am not drug seeking, but now I am worried about seeing him again--although hes already called and said hes gonna be out of town for 3 weeks (after promising to pick him up this weekend) he said hed call dane and talk to him direct, but hasnt happened, i dont need this sh*t, things are too good, plus he kept trying to like hold my hand and stuff--i think thats whats really bothering me the most, I am just now (4years later) not feeling emmense pain associated with thoughts of him, i loved him, wanted to take care of him and be with him forever, he destroyed me, but I still wanted to be with him, NOW he wants to hold my hand--what the heck is that, I think he sees I am doing awesome and am actually over him...i dont know im not gonna try to figure it out, but it messed with me. thank got i could come hom to my stablehome my nice little cubicle job, and a family that wants whats best for me and will help me acheive...so why am I tense and not able to breath--please god take this off my shoulders, or show me the way to deal with it--you know im feeling desperate when im praying to god, LOL i gotta stop talkin about this now, im at work already feeling tired and run down--TGIF thanks guys, sorry to leave ya hanging i am so gratefull for so much, i think ill write a gratitude list at lunchtime
Hey Amity, sorry you're going through all that sh*t at the mo, you don't need it. You're right you are doing too good. You were on about going to meets in an earlier post, maybe you should get to one, it might help you. He is most prob trying to bring you down to his level cause he's jealous, don't let him. Sending you some p vibes. Take care, Kev

I'm so sorry to hear your feeling so emotional. If i lived closer we could eat ice cream watch chick flicks talk about our crappy ex boyfriends. I've only had ONE boyfriend that still gets to me. I know the feeling it's terrible. I've thought a zillion times i was over him hahaha.
Hey girl. I haven't been on in a couple of days or I would have been right there calling to you! You take care of you and your son. Just think...you can choose the ex and the drugs or your child and you....not a tough decision. I know that the decision is the easy part but you can do it! You have done it! Your stronger than you give yourself credit for.........and we are all here for you! Hugs! cyndi

Old lovers can bring you down because you feel an obligation to them that they aren't always feeling. In the future if he wants to see his child he should come to your place to visit, even if he has to take a taxi. Much more controlled and safe. You didn't lose the time that you had sober, you just interrupted it. Sounds like your doing well all things considered.
