Hi, Vicodin withdrawal is the characterised by specific reactions of an addict's body, since it is in the faze of detoxifications off vicodin. This is the first step in recovery, and it is very difficult. The body must relearn how to live without chemical stimulants, such as Vicodine. And this process is never easyAddicts need to use medical facility, in order to deal with the pain of detoxing. A medical detox can be performed under the supervision of medical professionals. The withdrawal period is necessary to go through, in order to recover.

After 8 months of daily vicodin use,. sometimes as many as 10 to 20 a day,. I decided that enough was enough. I quite. GUESS WHAT PEOPLE!? It's not really that hard to quite! SERIOUSLY! I had some restless leg syndrome,. a little 'edgy' feeling,. and a feeling like a flu was coming on. 3 days max. This hour that I am typing this marks the 72 hour mark. I just woke up and I am feeling great!!

Do NOT let all of these so call detox sites scare you. THEY WANT YOUR MONEY! Detoxing off of vicodin was a LOT easier then I thought it would be. I kept waiting for the bad day to come,. but it never did! I'm over it and it was simple,. not bad at all!

Just plan ahead 2 -3 days that you can stay off work (not necessary,. actually staying busy helped me a lot) and tell your loved ones that you may be a little edgy over the next day or so. Then grab a bunch of good movies,. some sleep aids to help you rest,. and KICK IT!

It was so easy,. I can't believe it. If I would have listened to others,. I would have thought that I would be close to death during detox. IT'S NOT THAT BAD! TRUST me! DO IT! You'll thank me! IT'S EASY! Laughing
