Thanks for sharing. I was told in treatment, "The body manufactures the pain to tell you that you need more." Yet don't let the people in the program play doctor, sometimes we do need medications, just because it is a pill doesn't mean it is wrong. I suffer from depression, but it isn't clinical depression and I don't need a pill for it. I just need to apply my program. Depression is part of grieving and part of withdrawal and detoxing, so many doctors dole out pills, when in fact it is a natural process and we have go through it, for me it was a living hell, but a pill doesn't make it better, it just prolongs things and kept me sick and in denial.

Some medications which are good for others are not good for others, for example, Gravol is something I don't have in my house. I can have it's good uses, but it was my drug of choice when everything else didn't work fast enough. For me it was about being aware and being willing to not go there.

Just for today, I choose not to use.
