Honestly the idea of limiting yourself is probably making it worse. This could be terrible advice but maybe you should allow yourself one more "kicker dose"
You're allowed to use it any day you feel really necessary but it's your last one so make sure you use it when you really really want it.
Or don't do it again works good/better too. But I just feel that giving yourself permission rather than feeling like you're locking yourself up might make it more manageable perhaps?
But nah, you didn't let anyone down, shit happens. Like I said, I just respect that you're manning up and trying to do the right thing.

I don't have any plans on using any more... I just really needed this "break" from this.
My hope is that once this dose runs its course that I'll be back on the tail end of the withdrawal and be able to function and make it the next couple days and let the last of the acute symptoms run their course.

My main motivation through all this is my daughter. She deserves to have me at my best.
When I was hugging the toilet earlier and puking she came in and was hugging me from behind. It was very bittersweet... And when I went and laid back down on the couch she brought her Cheerios snack and sat on the floor in front of me and ate em... So I can tell she knows something is up and is trying to help.
It made me feel extremely proud of her and disgusted with myself. She's such a sweet little girl.

Dude, don't worry too much about that kicker dose. Tbh, the bigger setback would be to beat yourself up over it. Once you start coming down hard on yourself about little shit like that, that's when the floodgates open up and bigger shit comes through. You took it, move on. Tough out as much as you can from there. We're all super proud of you. Many of us very much know the hell of it, you're doing awesome.
And your daughter is amazing. Great motivation there. Isn't it the best when you get a hug from your toddler? That's like my favorite part of my whole life. I'm missing the hell outta that right now.

Yeah, it's the best motivation someone can have I think.
Obviously, I wanna do it for her, but I really need to do it for myself, too. The dumb shit like making plans to go out of town and making sure I have enough shit to keep me going until I get home... Shit like that, I'm tired of it. Being essentially a slave to a substance is no fucking way to live.
Since this is a holiday weekend and everyone else is out doing shit and I'm laid up like some loser makes me feel terrible, but I figure this... It's Independence Day weekend and I'm using it as my own Independence Day, so that has helped me through the really tough parts, but I broke earlier... Time to move on from that and once again start to regain my independence.

Awesome perspective man. Give your Fourth of July a double meaning. Triple, if you count the time Will Smith punched an alien in the face.

I don't think I've shared with anyone here yet but I was in a pretty brutal car wreck a few weeks ago, it was just me thankfully and no one else involved. But basically I was coming home from work and pulling off an offramp and straight blacked out. Hit a median and plowed straight into a tree head on dead center. Car was totaled. Was in the hospital all that weekend and thankfully wasn't seriously injured.. three compression fractures in lower vertebrae and a bump on the forehead. After several MRIs they determined it was not very severe and all and aside from some heavy ass pain when it first happened, I'm healing up fine and can walk and everything just fine. I got lucky as fuck. Some people with similar injuries can't even walk for months. But when I was in the hospital they were giving me Dilaudid through IV and holy fuck was that good and helped. 3 days of that, multiple times a day. Got out of the hospital and was like cool, whatever. I don't think medicine is bad in the right circumstances. Time and place for everything... I've never been a heroin addict so I can't really comment on that really..
I just always thought the whole "relapse" thing is bullshit... if you need something you need it. There shouldn't be any shame in that. Just don't kill yourself. Thanks.
After I got out I didn't have any withdrawal symptoms whatsoever.. or if I did they were masked by all the herb I was smoking.. that helped a lot. Anyway don't get down on yourself.. just recover

I saw your wreck on Facebook. Sounded like your lady was a guardian angel that day. So glad you're relatively OK, brother.
3 days of dosing won't get ya there, but if they gave you a script, definitely just be careful, man.
Thanks for the kind words. I will be moving forward and keep my eyes ahead

I have a script but haven't been using them really. I kinda have a love/hate relationship with opiates.. I can't really see myself ever getting addicted. Good once in a while but yeah.. fuck all that doing them every day shit. And yeah just keep moving forward and heal up

I never imagined myself being here either, but they're a slippery slope for sure.
Just take em when you need to and be mindful is all. Better men then us have lost everything... And I don't intend to be another stat nor name in the "RIP thread" here.
Again, super glad you're doing well, buddy.
