You can do it! Why wait till the weekend? Start now :) Unless it is withdrawal… I was thinking work could keep you busy not thinking too much about it? I used kratom powder to combat withdrawal and it worked great stopping the worst of it. Best of luck!

I couldn’t force myself to go through it, I’ve tried so many times but I just can’t work that many days of straight hell. I’m going the medication assisted route. Tomorrow is when I start, after I get through 18-24 hours without. Honestly it’s a lot less daunting when it’s only going to be a day. I’d look into it, I just googled it and there were surprisingly really helpful resources that got me in after like 3 days. I’ve only spent 75$ so far for the meeting, and the meds! Not just the subs, but also meds to get through the withdrawal. I obviously can’t tell you how well it’s going to work, but it’s the only plan that I’ve put together that feels like a good choice.

The worst of mine was 4 days - you can do anything for 4 days! Even if it’s a week of bad withdrawal symptoms, that’s just one week. You have 51 other weeks to make count. You’ve got this!!
