    hi am Tricia i wrote a post 3 days ago about getting off methadone.. and to let everyone know i am still going strong 1month and 5 days!!!!!!! somedays i wounder if it ever is going to be over but at least now i make my self. get up take a bath try to do my make up and get out side and ride to do something every day. it wears me out. but i am starting to relize that i can love and talk to me children with out getting aggravated. my best and and my cuzin came and seen me yesterday and i had a really good day . And daydreamer you made my day with your uplifting words i need any incoragement i can get because this is the hardest things in my life. and yes i did not think about the side effect to look at them as the prosses for getting better. i want to be my old self a good wife and a great mom, all the other teen agers come here and call me aunt tishie i want to be there for them to and i know the only way to do this is to get off this devil drug. but God is helping so much….

    i am not a full blown Jesus freak like a lot but i do beleive God is helping me because i asked for it. but sometime God lets you go through things so you want do them again. if anyone needs someone to talk to please let me know we can be there for each other. please let me know that i am not the only struggling through this. it never hurt to have a freind going through the same think i am and i promise i can help good luck and my heart is with you

    your doing well! we love u we love u we love u

    but ur the one quitting, not god doing it

    it’s great to hear how well YOU are doing! :group_hug

    if your struggeling have you tried NA? sometimes it’s good to get support and encouragement from others who are / have been similar to where you have
    and always come on here as there is usually someone around who can give you words of encouragement

    keep up the good (hard) work :bounce_fl

    thanks everyone sleeped really good last night. the only drouble with goint to NA is i leave in a hick town where they only have AA and theysay drug addicts are not allowed . it is made of of abunch of men.” So a sweet little girl like me needs to go somewhere else”. and they nearest Na meeting is an hour and a half a way. That is why i have turned to forum boards and today is another day 1 month and 6 days i know that my not sound like alot but is a whole lot for me lol.
    And i know I am the one doing it , but i know i could not do it without God. I have tryed it before without him and there was just no way lol
    hope to hear from anybody soon

    one onth and six days is amazing!

    I don’t know about your ‘god’ but i believe its shear arrogance to think we know all of it so if you know there’s someone helping you then there is.

    well done mate, keep going :love:

    Shame, AA can be snobby sometimes unlike NA who’ll accept drinkers too – they are both mind altering substances after all and no difference in my mind!!!
    NA have on line forums so that may help!

    glad you slept too, its difficult enough to do anything if your not sleeping so a really big part of the recovery process!!

    In my opinion I think you should be glad you are on methadone and stable and not using heroin on top.

    I did both for years and ended up with a worse habit than if I had taken methadone alone.

    Now I have a great doctor, a great Hep C Nurse and an even better drug worker. They are empathetic and realise that if they impound there “you MUST drop down 5mg” this week crap” or we are putting you back on supervised consumption it doesn’t work. I like to take it at my pace and i’ve done better than someone telling me what I am restricted to.

    Apologies, I digress.

    Well done is the idea behind this and i’ve been there. In fact, you will find more people on here than at first. We seem to get “waves” of addicts or ex addicts.

    Isn’t a grat feeling for YOU to accomplish everything? Sure, you asked your “God” if thats what you like to call it, and you succeeded. If that works for you then go for it. But I got clean myself and with the help of real people. Just like on this board. We are real and any one of us will help you.

    Dont take the decrease in methadone too quick, make sure you are stable first and wait until you have had enough. Then slowly decrease. Thats what I’ve always done and it seems to work for me.

    So you see aunttish – “You are not alone”

    /me breaks out into a Michael Jackson song :laugh_at:

    and made it . it’s been 5 weeks and 2 day and today i cried all day i feel like i am not a wife and not a mother even though i have full support of my family. i did not get on it to get off another drug i got on it for pain and just did not know what it was. does anyone know how much longer this will last and will i will get my energy back. my daughter has surgury on her foot tomarrow. She is going to need me. What can i do for her in this condition!!!! some one amino acids will make me feel better……….i need help soon!!!!!! and i hear you all saying My God!!!!!! He is all our God. He did not miss me up I did he is just trying to help me though it!!!! you are all great people!!!!!!! You are helping more than you know when i cant stop crying you give me hope thanks for being here for me i love you all and that is from the bottom of my heart

    it will get better with time .. you just have to stick with it:wink:
