Withdrawal

Well its been 7 days since i stopped taking codeine! I think i have been doing well.
There have been times when i have been very sore, uncofortable and shaky but the worst should now have passed... i hope!!

Thanks to Twinnings Camomile and spiced apple teas i have been pretty relaxed plus it tastes nice too especially with 4 sugars in lol

My girlfriend has been my source of strength through all this! And she has been the one to be firm with me during the weak moments and very very caring during the painful and hard times.

Tomorrow i go to the hospital to see how im doing and to probably start on an opiate blocking medication for a few weeks so that any cravings i have for codeine will be removed. Tho i dont get cravvings, i just get my body being sore and saying i need something to make me feel normal! I dont get cravings saying oh it would be nice for the buzz of codeine to come along! I have not had that in years.

I look forward to the time when i am able to do the things i used to do like play football, badminton, be able to concentrate properly, walk up the street without feeling knackered, be able to enjoy life, be a healthy weight etc

Speaking of weight i have put on half a stone in a week!
YAY me
One day in the near future i hope to be my ideal 11 1/2 stone!!!
