Everyday is getting a little easier. . .

Everyday is beginning to seem a little easier to get through.
This has been the hardest thing I have EVER done in my life!
I am so proud of myself for FINALLY (after YEARS) putting my foot down and not allowing this disease to take over my life! biggrin

Bad days still come and go, but I have been keeping my head up because I know that before long, the bad days won't come as often, and life will seem so much easier and brighter! smile

I just keep looking at my daughter and realizing that there is sooo much more to life than those "Devil Pills!"

I'm working on a NEW ME!. . .so far, so good smile

Thank you so much for the reassurance smile 

I REALLY am having BAD days at times cry
It is getting easier, but I am VERY new to this whole sobriety life, so some days I just want to break down and go back to my old lifestyle.
Let me rephrase that. . .My brain is telling me that I want to go back to "roxies," but my heart and soul are telling me that I want to stay clean.
(If not for me, atleast for my wonderful, 4 yr old daughter)
I love her too much to risk my life ever again.

Thank You So Much For The Support!
Have A Wonderful Day biggrin  Talk To You Soon

Good and bad are very relative; it is good/ bad cause I deem it so.

Sometimes those bad times wake us up to reality,,reminding me who I am and what I need to change in order to stay clean and serene.

Im an addictb that woulld look at glass of juice after Id drunk half of it and think
"halfs gone"

But New Attitudes (NA) shows me how to think
"there's half a glass left"........

I like how you think Raman...:)

We all know just how painful those bad days are.  All of us. Thats why its one day at a time, even a minute at a time if it has to be that way for now.
Its a whole new lifestyle like you said and your brain (to me its the devil) and body crave what its used to.
I used for more than 20 years...I tried shrinks, changing drugs, weaning myself, and all those things we do when we are trying to control our using. Then one day it just occurs to us that we truly are powerless.We surrender and our HP helps us up. One day at a time, and 12 steps at a time.

Be proud of yourself!!! You have surrendered!! aww
