Hello to all!!! I've really missed being able to talk with all of you. Okie, I am sooo proud of you...i know it must be tough as hell, but girl you did it :) :) you sound like you're doin so good - i know you really love those babies and you did it mostly for them, but you did it for yourself too! have you gotten any of your energy back?

Cowboy, I know you really wanted to detox, but you have legit pain. Even though you're tired of the same old "routine", don't beat yourself up about it, you need the meds to function. How are you doing now??

I made it to day 5 of w/d's and was hurting so bad i couldn't take it anymore. I think it was a combo of w/d symptoms and real pain. I haven't gone back to ALL of my different meds, but I am back on the soma...unfortunately, i am taking too many, probably about 25 a day. I go to the dr on tuesday, and i know he's gonna give me all my old meds again, and i *wish* i had the stregnth to turn them down, but i know I won't. The sad part is that i've been off the lortabs, percs, and restoril for 2 weeks now and just having the scripts for them in my hand is going to kill me :(

Things blew up betweeen me and my bf last night too...i told him about the soma, and he's like "just take tylenol like everyone else"...he just doesn't get it. It's caused alot of tension though, cause in so many words i FINALLY admitted to him that I am an addict - he never knew before. I don't think he knows how to act. He's very anti-drug. Any advice on how I can make him understand better??
