At 7:05am this morning I celebrated 9-years (IV) since the day I decided that I was done letting pills & chasing the feeling of being numb consume my entire life.
Nine years ago today I got sober from opiates & I haven’t looked back.
Addiction is almost genetic in my family so this is huge for me, my husband & children.
Wow well done you sound so happy and so you should 
Well done, and congrats to you! Your success sets the bar for us. ODAAT.
Welcome to the community Murphie! Congrats on your 9 years of freedom – that is super impressive work! 
Welcome! And congratulations on your 9 years!!!
Congratulations on 9 years! 
Opioids used to consume my entire life too. I’m approaching 5 years and the freedom is an incredible. Happy to be trudging the road of happy destiny with you.
I remember hitting that 5yr mark & it felt like I had just climbed Everest! After hitting my goal of a 9yr milestone it’s like being on top of Everest but actually being able to breathe! The air isn’t as thin anymore & it doesn’t hurt my lungs to try & breathe!
