I'm currently three days into sub withdrawal. I'm freaking out right now. I came clean and told my husband but having three young kids doesn't help. I'm scared and was looking into that withdrawal ease as well. Since you don't recommend it. . Will you tell me what helped you get through this. .. I'm miserable. Thank you
The withdrawl ease really didn't help in fact, I have a bunch of them left as well as the recovery formula bottom line is withdrawals completely sucks but everyone hooked on any drug has to get through them so just hang in there I did it had problems for 6 weeks went to the doc he put me on Zoloft which seemed to help but now I'm hooked on them damn life sucks sometimes but you'll get through it hang in there.
By very careful with Kratom. I just read the following warnings on some web sites of Kraton sellers: If used daily, it can produce an addiction similar to opiates. Please do some research before using this drug before using it. It can produce dangerous adverse reactions when combined with stimulants and anti-depressants.
Hi Derek! I sure hope things are going well for you now!
If you see a physician for your opiate addiction only thing they are gonna give you is another drug to get you off the opiates like methadone or suboxone, rather try an natural way like herbs which is a mixture of all the things you would buy for restless legs, constipation, cold symptoms and would cost like $300 bucks, would rather try something natural rather than getting addicted to another drug. If you take the herbs at least its natural and practically vitamin based and heard gives you energy and takes away most of the affects of withdrawl. See a doctor and you get hooked on something else. With this seems once symptoms stop you can be done with it rather than taking another drug in replace.
Vistaril is just benadryl. BTW, I know this thread is old but for anyone new that's trying to find out if withdrawal ease works the answer is F***k no! I was going into herein withdrawal and against my better judgement I bought that junk because I was desperate and wanted to believe something could help me get through the nightmare that is herein w/d. These pills did absolutely nothing at all to help with the w/d. It's just a bunch of bs vitamins and herbs that really do nothing to help you with detoxing. It's a huge scam. These natural remedies are not clinically tested nor are they regulated by the FDA. these companies can claim that their products do anything and there is nothing the FDA can do about it. Go onto the website and read theb"testimonials" they are clearly all written by the same person! I personally reached out to the Dr that endorsed this product (Dr Earthman) and got a nasty voice-mail from him in response telling me to never call him again and when the hell didnt think I was to question the product he endorses. Who am I? I am a person who has personal experience with it and it did jack c**p! Don't waste your money. As far as the withdrawal survival guide, it's c**p. The towel trick is just common sense! Put a warm towel on cramping legs! Fing genius! Ugh, please trust me when I say this product is garbage and these people are scam artists preying on desperate addicts! People want so badly to believe that there is a quick fix and will pay anything to get through it without the pain! There is no easy fix! I'm order to get off you have to go through the pain. You must work am program and really want to be clean. It can be done, I have been clean for 2 years now after shooting herein for 8 years and it is worth it!
1st of all because it isn't regulated by the for they can and do claim whatever they want. 2nd I have tried it and it did nothing. I agree that the testimonials appear to be written by the same person. This product is junk. Also I have personal experience with w/d and those products you named hell. Marginally at best. I. Medium will help with diarrhea but clonodin is simply a blood pressure med. It does help but only a little bit. Seroquil made me feel worse personally. The point of these threads is to give your opinion because someone asked for it! Don't tell people not to say something because you disagree with it. I've tried the product and it's a scam, period!
Did you really just claim that your withdrawal was PLEASE?! That's the biggest lie I've ever heard! Come on it seems like you're being paid by withdrawal ease to Co. E here and talk this product up because I use did and it did nothing at all to help me and you claim it made the detox pleasant!
Same exact thing g buddy
Wow Philly, so passionate. You were a heroin addict which -as you may know- is a lot different than being addicted or dependent (2 different things) to pills. You needed a LOT more than a nutritional supplement; kicking Heroin requires a complete paradigm shift in lifestyle. You were naive to think that Withdrawal ease was going to fix your life for you. Again, all of this you probably know.
But, for someone trying to rid themselves of a dependency from opiates after surgery or whatever, I'm not sure why it's such a bad thing to take a product with supplements routinely used in detox centers; not as a cure but as one tool. Especially since many people here seem to have had success with it. Were they "preyed upon" or are they just stupid and you know better? The fact that you are jumping on people who have had success is a bit odd. If I were "in the market" and researching my options, I would look at your posts and wonder if YOU were the one who had an agenda.
And yes, Clonidine works, Neurontin works, seroquel works, anti-depressants work, a short course of benzos work and nutritional supplements work...for many people...not all, but many.
I'm sorry I'm obviously a new member here and don't know how to edit. I wanted to add to my post. I didn't mean to denigrate what you have accomplished Philly. Things get heated and then they become toxic. I was dependent on pills but not addicted. I can say this because after many attempts at getting through detox (cold turkey!), I was able to do it and then I was very happy to just walk away. I may have been a fortunate exception but I think there are probably many levels of dependency as well as detox. What may work for one may not work for others. Anti-depressants were helpful to me (I think) and huge gulps of NyQuil.
Just read your post man gone through Suboxone withdrawal really bad
Thanks for all your posts pro and con. One thing I would like to comment on is that as addicts we tend to be pretty tough on ourselves. When I accepted my addiction as a disease and not a weakness, it became something I could get treated. Weakness just like ugly is not treatable. And to those of you that have relapsed, so what? You now have the experience to know what you need to do to get "normal". After decades of pain killer abuse, I found suboxon, and was quite proud of my treatment. Last year after a broken leg, you can only imagine what happened. Now back on Suboxone, I am looking for another alternative. The Suboxone will cost me around 1200 a month, and I like the idea of supplementands. With all the pros and cons here, I am glad to have had your input especially on the Suboxone. I will be ordering shortly and keep you posted. Thoughts and prayers welcome. PEACE
I came off hydrocodone after several years of using. I had previously done it "Cold Turkey." It was terrible and long lasting (no sleep for 40 days). I should have learned my lesson. But, years later, I was back in the same place. I thought the same thing - Why not give it a shot? I didn't make any difference with me. It's been three weeks, and I am in the same condition as I was without it. Of course, that's just my experience.
It's too late for my opinion (at least for your case). I hope you got help. I did try it, though. It did not help me one bit. I took it for the entire course (until it ran out). I didn't notice any difference between that and going cold turkey. I went through the same misery twice. Hopefully, I won't fall into the same trap again. My body and brain thank me for getting off opiates. They work much better when not hampered by medication. It took me about a month to feel better. It will take about a year for your body to return to 100%. Look at it as an investment. Take it a day at a time. Go to meetings. Talk to people who have been through it. See a therapist. Act as if you had a terminal illness. Get a team of specialists to help you get to lead a normal life.
