gabapentin works amazing for withdrawal. after 6 months of using upwards to6 percocets a day, the gabapentin worked well, except for the emotional bs, that is part of withdrawing
hhi there im on day 7 of tapering dwn from 15 mg of percocet no tynol . it was very very hard the first three days concidering the fact i at one point this month on 4 of the pills , so 60 mgs of perks . but then i went down to 28 mg of vicoden . the reason for my changing of pill of choise was beacause i had run out of my prescribtion so i had vicoden to get me threw it . anyhow i went from 60 mg f perks to 28 mgs of vicoden then to 21 mgs f vics and then 14 mg again of vicks. then i had picked up my 15 mg prescibtion and took a half at the begining of the day then when i started to have witdraws later on that night i only took a qarter piece of my oter half so probabley 12 mgs of perks and wahla !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!im done and i suffer from cluster migraines iv been fine i picked up excedrine migraine to help with any discomfort and also some vitamines, bananans really do help with the leg aches .i truley o beleive tht percocet and vicoden litterly with make you a damn sissy and will make the tinyest of pain larger than it really is ! but thats how i did it i hope it helps someone out there . and i have been trying for a year o really be safe and weater u taper or cod turkey is up to u but if you can taper i woud its just a ess shock t the system others might disagree but its yur body and u knw best god bless ;)or whatever u believe in
Go all natural...what God gave you. All the fruits, nuts and veggies you can eat, make a smoothie, drink green tea, cammomile tea for anxiety. I have been taking about 52 mg percocet a day for 7 years. 7 of the 7.5/325. At one time I was taking 8- 10mg. pills a day. I have 2 bulging discs, inoperable. Tried cortizone-steroid injections. I was left in a wheelchair for 2 months. My percocet was doubled by pain managment so my left leg and foot would let me walk. After 7 years the medicine no longer works. The pain became more intense, more frequent. So did my doses. After I became so depressed on this medicine that I never went anywhere, didn't care what I looked like, no longer laughed, didn't even care if I showered. I started researching percocet. Percocet screws your brain up by filling in all your brain receptors. It doesn't just stop the pain signals from reaching your brain, it stops every other emotion that makes us human. I only became angry, resentful, and isolated. The last 4 years have been very isolated. I found I couldn't even cook for myself. The depression became so much I missed emotions. I missed laughing, going out, planning things, looking good. After I researched about percocet I found that it can cause back pain and lots of other symptoms that users don't or may not have at first. I am tired of my brain being dead. I want my life back. I want to laugh and feel love and feel...just feel. When you stop or taper percocet your brain has to start producing endormorphines again. Your nervous system is what Percocet does a number on. I became unable to take any stress or problem because percocet had all my receptors filled in and therefore I didn't "need" anything from the outside world. My brain had nowhere to put any outside stimulation. I couldn't even feel enough to have an orgasm. Percocet destroys your brain....literally. I have tapered from 7 pills a day, to now 1/2pill a day. I split it into a 1/4 and have 2 doses. I spent 2 months taking 210 pills and every 6 days, I cut a half a pill off my daily dose. I made myself only take at usual times as before. I take flexeril and a 2 mg.valium at night to help sleep. But in the mornings I make a soothie in blender and it helps my nervous system. Add to blender. 1 banana, 3 large strawberries. 20-30 blueberries, 1/2 apple (deseeded, cut in 4 slices), handful of spinach, 1/2 pack vanilla carnation instant breakfast, 4 ounces silk vanilla soy milk. I freeze my fruit so it doesn't need ice. But if needed add crushed ice and ENJOY! YOUR BODY AND BRAIN WILL THANK YOU!! You have to eat and drink good food, so you feel better. Not a hamburger. Greens, fruits, veggies, meat. Eat healthier than you have ever eaten. Your body willl respond and you will not be so severely in pain and nervous. I drink cammomile tea when I feel nervous. Green tea to hydrate. Don't be afraid of sugar right now. Anything God gave us...eat it. I have 2 pills left. I will take 2 1/4's a day for 4 more days and thats it. I have told my family unless I am dying. No more pain medicine for me ever. Oh yeah the pain....it is all but gone. My back no longer hurts like it did. I get on my knees every night at my bed and ask God to help me and give me the strength and courage to get thru this. But first I thank him for all that he has done, all that he is doing, and all that he will do for me. Your spirit also needs help during this time. God says, "You have not because you ask not." If we don't ask.....he can't help!! God Bless all and you can do it. Like my moma told me when I was little. "Diana you can do anything you want to do, because all knowledge comes from reading a book." Everyone is educated in school with a book, If you want to know more about anything in life research it. I am so proud of all of you guys and gals for taking your life back. I will no longer let a frigging pill determine how I live my life and how I treat others and how I treat myself. Those days are over. Reach inside and dig up your strength and determination. Go all natural with pain...God put every herb here that we need to fix our bodies. "I give to you all plants bearing seed." That includes mary jane. It takes the edge off. Research all natural herbs, Manmade medicine will kill you. Read all the side effects of percocet!! Good luck everyone. "You can do anything you want to do!" Please reply if this post helps you. I may be on a mission from God. Everything happens for a reason. PS I never took my medicine before time and I never took more than I should, IT STILL TOOK MY LIFE AND DESTROYED MY MARRIAGE!! PLEASE THROW IT DOWN!! DON'T FORGET VITAMINS IN LIQUID CAPSULES..THEY HELP!! YOU ARE HEALING YOUR BRAIN AND NERVOUS SYSTEM!! DO NOT GET OTHER DRUGS FROM DOCTOR. MAYBE A VALIUM OR FLEXERIL....TEMPORARILY AT NIGHT. OR SOME NATURAL HERBS WILL HELP. GO TO A NATURE PHARMACY AND TALK TO PHARMACIST. DETOX YOUR BODY

Help him buy not giving him anymore of you meds I was highly addicted to oxy and perks for 4 years! It's going to he hard on him and your self. Physical withdraw will last about 5 to 7 days( stay the cores ) for the first while he may feel like his bones are breacking . It's like having the flu but 10 times worse. I would take him to see a doctore for help in getting him off the drugs ( I went cold turkey and it was very hard and painful) make sure he is drinking lots of water and vitamin water is good as well. He more than likly get sick like touching up. It's hard to get through the first 5to10 days buy then he may start to feel better! The worst part after the physical withdraw is the mental withdraw. It was at lest a year for me to kinda get over that part. They say there is a 73% chans of relapse I am now almost 10 years clean. And I am very proud of that. I would maby look at going to NA meetings you can find one by looking on the net to find a place to go to.
Please rember it is illegal to pass your pain killers to your husban and you and him could face very serious legal prombles I am not trying to scare you but I feel the need to say that. I don't know how long he had been taking the pain killed for but please stop and help him get through this! You can e-mail me if you need help!

Omg, these posts are scaring me. I have been on percs for 4 years (325mg x 10/day). I recently told my doctor I haven't needed them for my back pain in about 2 years and that I am ready to come off them. I NEED to come off them. I don't know what normal feels like anymore. I started slowly lowering my doses and by next Wednesday, I am going cold turkey. It's only been about 8 days since I started lowering and this 2 weeks is all I'm giving myself. I have booked time off work starting next Wednesday and returning on July 2nd. I feel I am ready and I know it's going to suck but I'm more scared now after reading these posts. Any advice from someone who is over the worst of it? Thanks
Hi, I am 22 years old and addicted to pain killers. I myself was addicted to suboxne but now I have tried to taper off of the drug with perc's and tabs. Before suboxne came along I was addicted to perc 30's..Where I live they are costly 45-50 dollars a pill. My husband and I spent nearly 15g's on em. Yea, Both of us was taking nearly 10 a day! Then we learned of suboxne..I didn't do my research..I seen it as the easy way out! No detox, Then my life would be back to normal! Boy, was I wrong! Suboxne is the DEVIL! DO NOT TAKE IT! The withdraws last 30-90 days considering your dosage! I am on day 22..It was a hard road to get here but am I proud of myself! I thought I would never be back to the old me..I am so close I can taste it! Now comes another hard part..I have been takin pain killers for 22 days to stop the dt's off of suboxne...I would rather dt for 3-5 days from pain killers than dt'ing off of suboxne! Good luk to everyone who is on the same road I am traveling! We got this guys! Jesus Christ suffered on the cross for ur sins and endured so much for us! We can stop taking pain killers for us and everyone who loves us! I know I need to stop traveling down this tough road before I die...I am only 90 pounds because of drug use. I use to be beautiful...Drugs got to me. I know I can get back to my beautiful self though..I want it to bad! I just got caught up with the wrong people and the wrong things! Please pray for me and I will be praying for you! Thank you all and good luck!
