I know this will help me so much. This has scared the hell out of me for so long but I know it is some thing I have to do. I have been on opiates for almost 10 years, also soma. I was put on these because I had hurt myself. Little did I know when they put me on these I was hurting myself much more then anyone could ever know. After finding this site I see I am not alone in this world. I have been reading everyones story and if yous can be this strong to do what many of you already have then I am going to put my all into this. Like Larry said it is some thing I will never have to do again if I do it now. Thank you for those words. Chuck you have also helped with your words along with so many others. I will keep yous posted but I have a feeling that tomorrow I won't feel much like writing. Tomorrow I am going to start to take my life back. Thanks every one and keep me in your prayers because I will need them. I am going cold turkey because I want this over as fast as I can. I don't want to ever have to do it again. I pray that I can be strong enough to take my life back and once again find the person I left so long ago. Thanks every body GOD BLESS.

So far, tolerable. I think that getting those 7 days before did make a bit of a difference... though I wish I hadn't slipped up, I'd be done by now. But I can only do right moving forward. went and got some passion flower and lemon balm and other herbs the lady at the store thought would be good. So far, tolerable.

I'm so happy for you. You inspire me. Keep it up. :-) So can anyone explain to me why I was able to spend several hours at the gym after surgery (Sept 1) while stoned out of my senses and now 30 minutes has me on my knees. I refuse to take anything at all. No sleep aids, no ibuprofen, no tylenol, no weed, no wine, nothing. Have had about an hour of sleep in about 5 days. Eating healthy but not enough...no desire really. Trying to wear my ass out so I can get some sleep. It's not working. Today is 4 days for me. I can see a pinprick of light into the old me...bring it on chick...not gonna lie...pretty terrified. Any advice? Thanks everyone. I am proud of and pulling for all of you. You and your loved ones are in my daily meditations. I know this may sound counterintuitive, but its an honor to be "among friends". Tashe Delek!!!! Steven,

Been 3 days since suboxone. Not doing too bad, feeling super groggy from the cold medicine I took last night but things are tolerable. I soak up the good hours so I can stick it out through the tough ones. Made it through the night. Been 3 days since suboxone.

My wife and I went on a ate last night. Grabbed a movie and then a real good dinner. Dear lord did I pig out! I came home, took a hot bath, drank my tea and gatorade and then we crashed around 10:00. I was asleep by 10:30, after some lovely physical activities, woke up around 3:30 for a few minutes. We both awoke at 6:00 with so much excitement! My wife has been sleeping in our guest room because of my constant fish flopping in the bed due to not being able to sleep. This is a BIG step in y recovery process mentally as well. We will be married 20 years in April and it pained me big time to sleep in different beds. Talking about hitting home! The name of this sleep aid that is working for me is made by Peak Life. It's called Somnapure. It's a natural sleeping aid. It has the following ingredients in it. Valerian Extract Root 500mg Lemon Balm 300mg L-Theanine 200mg Hops Extract 120mg Chamomile Flower Extract 50mg Passion Flower 50mg Melatonin 3mg This stuff has allowed me to go from 2 to 4 hours of sleep a night to 7 to 8. Insomnia sucks beyond it all, at least to me. Here is a link to it at GNC. http://www.gnc.com/product/index.jsp?productId=11957353&kwCatId=#pr-header-11957353 Night #2 with SLEEP!
