| Excellent article, I am a user of Oxycontin for a true illness I have. I have been on Oxycontin for about six months, and the dose has gradually increased due to my body growing a quick tolerance for the drug. I am not at no capacity next to an extreme dose but it is enough per the doctor for my medical needs. I have had people that knew, I was on Oxycontin try so hard to get me to give them or sell them the drug, I refuse, I have been offered obscene amounts of money for just one little pill, it's truly a scary thing. Let me tell my shrot story though, a few days ago I ran out, and thought I would try to quit cold turkey. Wrong thing to do, I found out quickly that I was going for a road of hectic hurdles. I went two days without the drug and was in extreme withdrawl it scared me. I could not beleive that I was hooked so to speak. I had all the withdrawl symptoms and then some. Could not beleive it, I know what herion users feel like because of it. I read this article and thought how could this happen to me, but it did. I just came back from the doc with another 60 ct. at 30mg ER, and a script for Dilaudid 4mg. I couldn't wait to get them into my system not only because I was in a 10/10 pain level, but also my body needed it bad! 30 minutes later I found releif in my mind and body, felt so so much better, like I am used to. So I talked to the doc and I was given Cymbalta for the sake of anxiety and pain releif, and depression, I guess this is supposed to help as well. So I asked the doc about withdrawls, he said I was lucky not to have had to go to the ER for a fix IV. I quickly learned how to control the use and wean myself off if you will. This drug is a really serious thing, it is not something you take for enjoyment and not to mention for pain but, abusing it could quickly take a turn, especially if you discover the withdrawls, it is horrific. Please to those of you who take, use, abuse this narcotic BE CAREFUL! You will find a road to hell if not carefully used. Regards, Josh< a pancreatic disease victim. |
