Im 10 months sober from pills…my last bout with them had the dreadul fentanyl in them and thats how i knew i had to stop…not to mention the money i was spending (when not getting robbed and ripped off).
It was rough at first…like really rough, and some days (sadly) theres still the urge, but im doing it and I’m so proud of myself. Now im kinda worried im attached to kratom/kava…i will eventually stop that as well…atleast its better then what i was doing. The mental part of addiction and becoming sober is the hardest for me. Yes the physical symtoms are horrible, but god damn your brain can be your own worst enemy. I just wanted to make a post because i never have and figured, why the hell not?!? Glad to see so many people doing well.

Thank you so much! 
I have noticed that using really take a toll on your body…duh… lol serotonin and energy were lacking for a long time. Some days i still struggle with that. But all in all im happy to not be a prisoner anymore…not being broke all the time…not worrying about when my “friend” isnt around. Its nice. My son and family needed that…i needed it.

Hey K80Buggg,
I’m really proud of you, keep the grind going!
I really feel what you say that your brain can be your own worst enemy. I have fought a lot with myself in the past. Now it is time to look ahead, day by day we will get better all together. Stay strong and have a beautiful day!
Greetings from Amsterdam.
Much love!

Congratulations on 10 months! I know how hard it is to come off pills, especially opiates. It took me a few years to get out of that nightmare. The chronic withdrawal alone should’ve been reason enough, but it wasn’t bc I also used kratom (or suboxone if I could find it). Ultimately it was the fentanyl risk (and 
) for me as well. Thinking about all that really helped stop any cravings I’d get, bc I know how long they can linger. Worse than alcohol, which is my primary DOC. Stay vigilant my friend Welcome to the community
