I wish with all my heart that there was something I could do to help. For what it's worth, I am sending you all my good vibes. I would send you my will power too, but there isn't a lot of that in me.
Take care of yourself: there's only one of you, and you are precious.

Good luck - if that's the right term to use...?

You sound like you really want to give it up, and you sound very brave.

I hope you don't mind the question but how long have you been using?

you're incredibly brave. That probably doesn't help at all, but it's an observation.

i don't know your full story ..just this post. but you do what is right for you. if now isn't a good time try and lay plans to make it easier for yourself when you do stop. people will still support you. you can still admit that you have slipped and try and understand why you did it and how you can avoid it in the future.don't give up ...stay strong and have faith in yourself ... no one is perfect we all have or vices ..this is yours ..take each day as an achievement ..or each hour if day is to hard and try to push yourself further! goodluck

All you can do is take it one day at a time & never build your expectations up too high, that way you will never have too far to fall & the pressure will never be that great.

Perserverance & determination is all you need.

Good luck :>>

I hope you are getting through it, it's been a few days now.
when I've been at my worst (different thing) I found praying helped - you know - just demanding some help from something super-human, like angels or something.
I don't believe any of it when I'm level-headed! But in moments of severe torture it helps. Don't know why. Maybe something is out there - even if it's only your better self waiting to be activated by your pain.

Hi theHelen...first of all, blogging can be rather overwhelming - I think it's to do with blogland being anonymous yet personal at the same time. So, whilst we're all real people, how close or distant you are is entirely up to you.

Sounds like things are pretty rough at the moment. Do you have a friend that could come and stay for a few days? Or any relatives you could visit? Perhaps it might help when you have cravings...??

Most importantly of all, don't give up - the first steps are always the hardest.

Hi Thehelen...I think Thursawilde has summed it up perfectly in that we all wish you well, but don't know how to say it without sounding cliche.

You have to keep telling yourself that you CAN do this. I, for one, will encourage you every step of the way.

there are people out here who will be waiting right along side you, you should know that.
Most of us are reading and wanting to comment, but not knowing exactly how it feels to be in your situation feel that what we say might sound stupid or trite.
Good luck. We'll all be here when you come out the other side.
Keep posting..

you know I wasn't going to comment thinking it's probably some writer or journo or dickhead writing this just to get material or a laugh but "hey ho" I thought what if.....?

good luck

because you sound like you need it and if you don't survive you'll be dead and we'll never know who you were or, more importantly, what you could become.

:D
