Checking in daily to maintain focus #32

  1. Coffee. Weekend. Working on battling my avoiding everything. I’m doing at least one thing I’d ‘normally’ avoid each day. And think about the why of avoiding. What are the feelings I avoid by avoiding? And ask for feedback from my friends. Including you all here. Going well so far. This is day seven. And I notice a difference in how it is slightly easier to confront things in my life. Going to do my first spinning class in a year or so. And will cook something healthy. Not much but it’s something. And I know the art is to persevere. One day at a time. Have a good day all. Love from Amsterdam.

This is perhaps the longest time I’ve ever gone without PMOing. It never was a daily thing, I could go weeks without it even crossing my mind before I came to the forum.

Here I am. 300 days today, 10 months on Sunday.

Sorry JJ, my DOC is alcohol so I’m afraid I can’t help you. I just don’t know about your thing. This is a worldwide site, so people are at all sorts of points in their day. Many will be asleep.
All I can say is don’t use whatever it is you’re thinking of using. Hang in there. Help will be along soon.

I have no knowledge of the subject either sorry JJ. There is some info onsite here: Search results for 'espranor ' - Talking Sober - Addiction Recovery Forum & Support Group or maybe try a search for buprenorphine. Success!

Hi John,

Welcome to the forum! If you use the search bar :mag: in the top right you can look up all kinds of things, like the results @Mno posted to you.

Some posts have tags (which can be added when people make posts, and also added by regular members to existing posts) to help make them easier to find. There are a few recent threads with the tag ‘opiates’:

This thread also has some general info about the forum and links to lots of threads which might be helpful to you :blush:

Day 351
I am still at work for a few more days and the kids are off. That means preparing their lunch in the evening for the next day, coming home from work to a house that looks like a bomb hit it, then once I am home they are ‘bored’ and want attention. Grateful for healthy, loving children, but lacking a little time to myself.

About to pass my longest stretch of 47 days on my ED.

I had 210 resets on that counter this past year.

Congrats Beth!!!
Maybe you have 210 resets, but you have picked yourself up 211 times. That speaks volumes about your relentlessness and no-nonsense attitude! Whoop whoop!!!
