BeHereNow Posted July 30, 2014 Report Share Posted July 30, 2014 ZK sorry I missed your post somehow! CONGRATS on 2 months quit!!! That's so hard to do and you must feel amazing!! The worst is behind you! Just don't relapse!!! Whatever you do don't turn back!!! Someone offered me some Vyvanse a couple months ago. I was tempted and considered it, I won't lie. I even considered stashing some for a "rainy day." But ultimately I wanted nothing to do with it. Yeah, GROSS. All it would take is one pill. Ashley I love how you framed it as a gift! Those little reminders are definitely gifts to help us remember how far we've come, and how amazing-- and lucky-- we are that we've gotten ourselves out of that hell. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ashley6 Posted July 30, 2014 Report Share Posted July 30, 2014 InRecovery, Wow, you've come a looooong way....thanks for sharing the story! Occasional, I'm really glad you decided against it. I was thinking to myself, why do people go around offering drugs? Then I realized I was that person, except I didn't want to share much, which is even worse. Oh yeah, I didn't mention I have to transport it again tomorrow. This thread makes me realize how I've missed my quittingadderall friends. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zerokewl Posted July 30, 2014 Report Share Posted July 30, 2014 We are all one pill or cigarette from total relapse. I guess this is true with any addiction but super scaryy when you spend the morning driving with that one pill or cigarette that could start a chain of events that could ruin us or worse kill us. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ashley6 Posted August 3, 2014 Report Share Posted August 3, 2014 I agree.....I miss seeing posts from all of those you named, InRecovery. Occasional, you did awesome this week!!! What kind of dancing do you do? I'm curious. I ran 3 miles this week and walked about a mile and a half....not much, but I'm glad I got in a little. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good job on those 4.5 miles Ashley!!! I have random fun dance parties with friends and have tried various dance forms but mainly I like hoop dancing. It's so fun, and a great workout! I def recommend it! (On a side note, I remember I used to take adderall before my hooping classes..... I thought it would help me learn tricks and stuff. Of course it just made me dehydrated and irritable.... Haha so ridiculous!) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zerokewl Posted August 4, 2014 Report Share Posted August 4, 2014 Nice work Occasional thats a pretty intense dance party. I don't see myslef posting any hours for dancing anytime soon. Girls just wanna have fun I guess. I did 2 bootcamps,cycled, walked went the gym. I had a pawsish day yesterday. I've really got too much going on to be fully sucked into PAWS. I had 2 beers on Saturday which may have set it off. I dunno things a really picking up with my freelance so maybe avoiding alcohol for the near future may be a good idea. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zerokewl Posted August 11, 2014 Report Share Posted August 11, 2014 Wow occasional you are a machine. Boot camp was cancelled last week but I am back this week. I went on a super moon bike ride last night which was amazing. Going to get in as many bike rides as possible before the weather changes.

Greg Posted August 17, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2014 I fly back to Florida on Friday. And then I'm hard core joining this group again, with the added incentive that everyone in Florida, where I am, is freakishly schvelte 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ashley6 Posted August 18, 2014 Report Share Posted August 18, 2014 InRecovery, I heart Florida.....lucky! I did nothing this week....a big fat zero. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zerokewl Posted August 18, 2014 Report Share Posted August 18, 2014 Didn't do much this week. Been on a few bike rides and a few walks. Noticed my mood has been down and pretty dark maybe the lack of exercise is a factor. Hoping for a better week this week.... Scratch that I'm gonna make shit happen this week.
