I’m Never Alone

October 19, 2019

Normally, I go to the pharmacy with someone because right now, the temptations are too great. But today I had to go alone because I absolutley had to get my prescriptions filled.

Immediately upon reaching the counter I thought about buying diabetic syringes. I grew anxious, handed my script in and was on the phone in seconds with a friend from NA who distracted me while I waited.

When it was ready, the pharmacist, who overheard my conversation, pulled me aside and said I did not need to come in anymore. My doctor put renewals on the prescriptions so they will be automatically filled and delivered to my home if I so choose.

One more day clean is another successful day.
