I doing ok at a month and 9 days sober. Feeling a bit bummed out though that my rehab sessions for next week have all be cancelled, as staff are involved in a big meeting. Oh well it will give me a chance to get some stuff done around the house.

emgreen, well done at making it back to a meeting, even if the topic wasn't the best.

Desoxyn, hang in there. It's good you've got some safeguards in place to keep you away from the hard stuff. Just keep taking it one day at a time.

I did; it was just a quick trip to a nearby pond. Caught 4, only one that was good sized but released them all. Clear blue sky, around 80, fishing in a T shirt in late October. I am worried about the Earth, but have to admit I enjoy the warm days.

Sorry to hear your sessions are cancelled, but I can't believe how much better you sound! I hope you're able to get a lot done this week!

Well,
I have an appointment to see my MDOC on monday.
The new pdoc(that I am thinking about switching to) only takes new patients with referrals. So maybe I can get one from her on monday?
She is a psychologist with prescriptive privileges, So she can provide therapy as well as med management. And she takes my insurance!
This is a big step to change pdocs...I really feel like it is time. Although, I don't know if the new pdoc will prescribe naltrexone for me. That could be a deal breaker.
Will see if it all works out.

I figure since I have met my deductible for the year I should take care of things that I have been meaning to do.

We went to halloween attractions this weekend and it was fun!Daily addiction check in #1
Went with a girlfriend tonight and she screamed quite a lot, it was great! The 13th Gate and it is located in batron rouge. Had my favorite dish at the chimes, New Orleans BBQ shrimp, with a corn grit cake in a peppery butter sauce. yummy!

Need to do a load of laundry and billing tomorrow, behind again.

I have been having the most vivid dreams about buying and using :/ It's actually quite upsetting to wake up from and realize it's all gone. Not only that, but to wake up to the nausea and depression again. Not really sure if I have the flu or if I'm just that depressed lately. Lol. Debating on actually going into the meeting tonight. Maybe.

Please go to the meeting. And step through the door. It's other people like you who want to help.

When I have those dreams I wake up worried that I violated my sobriety (3 days until it will have been 4 months) and then relieved when I realize it was just a dream.

Sorry about the depression but if it is accompanied by nausea and that doesn't subside pretty quickly I would see a doctor. We have to be careful not to assume every problem is MH related.
