Hey Poo---glad to see your post. YES---I DID IT!!! I am finally off of those horrid little pills. It is so nice to be able to go out and do things without counting pills or freaking out because i don't have enough. I am having a bit of a problem with sleep the past 3 nights or so...but i guess that's a small price to pay. I have gotten SO much done around the house, i am pretty sure i just sat around all day thinking about pills. Glad that's all behind me.
Now the only thing hanging over our heads is court...NOV. 4th.....he plead guilty to Assault3, but was on probation. The sick thing is, he was 3 weeks away from probation being OVER!!!! Well the "court investigator" is recommending that he does---a lot of stress and anger management programs, and feels that it wouldn't benefit ANYONE to incarcerate him. But the end decision lies in the judge's hands. I am cautiously optimistic. I am praying daily, because, i don't think i am ready for something like that to happen to me, i don't work, and have ALOT of mouths to feed, i think it would be totally OVERWHELMING. Any ideas on what to say to the judge??? Weren't you the one that is a police officer????
As for my family....they are "high-demand" and i think they are so used to me picking up after all of them. My hubby tries as much as possible to help me, but he works from 6a.m. til about 7 at night--6 days a week. The last thing he wants to do when he gets home is clean, he eats and goes right for the kids or couch and t.v.....
Well thanks so much for the post. I do feel very proud of myself, and quite frankly, a little surprised that is went that smoothly. I am going to continue to post---in hopes that people will see that no matter what is going on with your life, PILLS are NOT the answer. Those lil *****s sure had my brain re-wired. It was rough, but i did it, and have such a "HATE" for those things. Don't ever want to feel dope sick again. Well i hope you post again....thanks again for the encouragement, it means a lot to me....
