Hey guys
A quick note. I hope its nornal. I didnt sleep good at all last night, maybe it was the funeral. It felt like i had some wds at work today, sweating not feeling 100%. Is that normal? Dont get me wrong im 1000 times better than a week ago. The more i think about it and if anyone who is trying to quit listen in. The fear of wd is the worse part.
Well im going to a birthday party for my little niece shes 5 and very cute. Ill be back on tonight.
Ohh i registered for my gmat for July 18th for grad school. So im happy.
Have fun guys
Red
you sound like a really nice person---i hope things get easier for you--good luck w/ everything
Yeah Reddog! Everytime I read your screen name I think of the legendary roadie from the Allman Brothers who was depicted in Almost Famous.
Keep it up, the worst is surely over, you may have some insomnia for the next few nights but you should be in the clear. Have you been to any meetings yet?

reddog!
I'm sorry about the crappy w/d's still. It is normal very normal i hear they can last for maybe three weeks. SYpmtoms pop up every now and then. But you are so positive and you have so much to be happy and proud of yourself about. Great Job!!!!!
One of the things that helped me was exercise. I'm not sure if you have been but walking or jogging or anything with activity is great for these types of things. Also keep drinking plenaty of water and I hear OJ helps too! Have a great night at your nieces Birthday party!
WIth Love

Hey Reddog
You're doing great! What helped me most at 6 days was eating breakfast, oj and vitamins. For me playing golf and getting exercise and drinking lots of water helped. If you don't golf, try walking or anything you enjoy to get ya going.
For me, 6 days was definately 'over the hump', physically.
Good luck & take care

My 1st post didn't take so the one that looks 1st probably doesn't make sense (which I don't sometimes (haha)
Sorry about lack of sleep and some WD's coming back.
They will go away, my energy comes and goes but comes more now.
My sleep is not always great BUT we're not taking drugs.
When you get to your little 5 year old niece's b'day party, you will forget there was anything ever so bad as drugs - 5 is a perfect age and they can do that for you. You have so much going for you and YOU DESERVE IT - YOU HAVE WORKED HARD!!!
Go, have a blast, be a kid again.
Love, Jean

hey dog... sleep sucks here too, hang in there, it gets better(so im told) but if its just a little insomnia, what a small price for us to pay for our lives back.
Hey guys
I just got back. Well the party was over earlier but i went to my girlfriends watched scare face/ What a freaking awesome movie. I like you guys bikerman, molly all of you. Please dont leave me anytime soon. I am taking 5mg ambien tonight. I need to sleep. Its like a phobia now. I used to sleep soooo well. A lot of you are saying exercise. I have been working out every day. Its funny you guys say lack of energy. Im a hyper young man so im pretty good energy wise.. Thats if i sleep. The night is a scary time you know. Especially the dam spiders in my room lol
Some of you are saying meetins.... im seeing my psychiatrist for counseling.
One more thing before i crash. Last friday i was gonna quit, didnt quit till last sat night but i remeber how freaking scared i was. I never thought a week would pass by. Oh i cleaned my room and found pills, they went down the toilet with my stomach lol. Not good today. I think i took way too much vitamin water at work. The stuff is great
Well enough good night sleep tight. I wish we could all get together guys. Maybe one day
Peace

Red,
Great job on the flush bro. And I know what you mean - I used to sleep forever when I was taking pills, sometimes till 2 or 3 in the afternoon if I didn't have to be up for something. Then when I quit c/t I'd have insomnia and not sleep for 45-50 hours straight.... it sucked balls!

PS I don't care how much recovery time an addict has - every single one of us feels at least a slight twinge of jealousy when Pacino snorts that mound off the desk at the end.
