Well I'm on day 11 and still no signs of wanting to go back to using, well small ones by they subside pretty quickly. Moved to a new apt I figure a fresh start and change of scenery helps. Whether it does or not I'm not totally sure but the fact I'm out of the place I smoked and snorted opiates in makes less triggers for me I suppose. Change of jobs as well. Everythings a bit more colorful, I hope everyone else is going along well. Listening to Old music helps bring back old memories, I feel pretty fantastic. Hoping I never have I deal with that shit again :) their is light at the end of the tunnel, I'm slowly but surely making my way, in no hurry though, I think I'll savior these moments.
 
I really liked your other post/thread this week - it's so good to see you are continuing to do well. Keep us posted.
 
Sounds awesome! I like how you say everything is more colorful. It makes a lot of sense. Substances have dulled our senses so much in the past.

I also moved a month ago. At that time I made a rule for myself, "No booze in the new place". It was a key commitment. Since then I've gone a lot further than just that 1 rule.

Keep it up. What other replacement behaviors have you started?
 
good for you my friend, make it 12 days, 1 DAY AT A TIME, keep counting, good luck to you....
 
Thanks for the support :) a for new activities working two jobs keeps my busier than ever, I'm hoping I can get a new car before the year ends! That would be an awesome gift for accomplishing getting and staying clean, everytime I drive I'll remember I wouldn't have it if I was spending all my money on drugs. I've started attempting working out again, man back in the day I was a gym rat! I've lost all that over the past few years though haha. I've been reading a lot lately though, most recently on theories, and such. Strange to think people actually believe nothing is real other than our thoughts, an everything we see and everyone we talk to our created in our own minds. Haha I entertained the idea, it really makes you wonder haha also trying to get back into old hobbies I destroys with using, I used to play games back in the day then only played high, I'm starting to get that same happiness I did before. I also though maybe soon down the road I can volunteer for March of dimes or relay for life. Things like that would really make me feel better about what i do with my free time.
 
It's so good to hear that things are still going well.:) Volunteering is a great thing to do to feel connected and get you out of focusing solely on yourself--that's a worthy goal! I'm doing the opposite of you right now;I used to read several books a week and now I have not been reading at all but I am going to the gym and have become somewhat fanatic about it (for me, anyway). I would like to reach a happy medium where I do a little more reading and a little less gym.:\
 
This is fantastic news :)
You are a real inspiration to others around here dude.
It is really good to see you making proper changes, and even better to see you slowly getting your old life back.
Good on you :)
 
Day 13 :) damn though, two jobs is easily kicking my ass haha hopefully I'll he used to it in a couple weeks haha right now caffeine is my new drug haha only way to stay up working 12-14 hours a day with 6 hours sleep haha I feel very productive though, man I know I couldn't do this of I was still using, If I didn't have pills or what have you, I'd make excuses and call in guaranteed haha well this cup of coffee is on me hope everyone has a great day!!
 
grats man, it's day 10 for me and I noticed the trees a little diffrently today while drivng.:)
 
To the above 3 posters, VF, Omen and cool, congratulations and keep it up. Omen, you are almost at a month! I am so happy for you all.<3
 
2 weeks without anything! Almost 6 weeks since I last actually got high! I'm a bit ecstatic tOday haha feels fantastic to genuinely be smiling again :) good luck to everyone out there, I hope you find what makes you happy, or at least the drive to keep searching, it's a glorious view on the other side I assure you, faith in yourself and knowing inevitably you'll come to find what your searching for will lead you to unimaginably gReat places.
 
wow - congratulations so far man keep it up, the drug free life is the better life!

i am so proud of people when they manage to keep clean. keep up the good work!
