Thank you so much for your reply and encouragement! I totally know this is do-able, but I am so scared to go through the detox... It's scary to read that it takes some people MONTHS!! I'm sure I could endure a week or two, but if it lasted much longer than that, I know I'd be right back where I started! Also, I'm curious to know where my pain level would be now, without the narcotics...
Is it true that your heart can stop from WD's? I have felt the pain of the sweats, watery eyes, muscle aches, anxiety, the WORST upset stomach ever (although I never vomited, always came out the other way), and the inability to sleep more than 2 hrs at a time... A few Benedryl & Pepto during the day and an ambien or valium at night relieve some of those symptoms a bit, but obviously not completely... it is just so SCARY to me to think that you could DIE from detoxing! My husbands job takes him out of town about 4 nights a week, and living in a new town where I have no family or good friends is hard enough. Do they ever admit you to the hospital for detox? How does that work? I don't really have an addictive personality, so I don't think I would need the rehab part (maybe I do), & I am not worried about trading one dependency for another...
I am getting anxious just thinking about this!!!

Honey stay with it I know its hard you can call me pg do you work or work out . If you work out or walk in these beautiful mountains you need to keep busy if you go to the shelter you will see the people trying to get off this stuff. my wall was when my daughter told me I could not be with my grand kids. I had lost my husband but it was mutual agreement. take vitamins high does of vbs complex calcium and magnesium are good for calming down there are things for for your tummy and above all you have to eat yogurt all you can i will pray for you, pg

I wish people would keep their delusional beliefs to themselves. I've seen this far too often in the medical community. When somebody is in deep water physically, emotionally, and cognitively, they tend to delude themselves into thinking that there is a purpose to their suffering; that there is a "God" who will be there for them. There is simply an overwhelming lack of evidence for the existence of a god such as Yahweh, Jesus, Zeus, Wotan, Thor, or the thousands of others that humans have created over the past 200,000 years or so. It's folklore folks, lol.

I do not believe people go to a so called hell because they get hooked on drugs, I know there are people and places that want to help people to be comfortable getting off this mess. I admitted my self for 6 days to detox . they threw me in a room and gave me a vitamin every morning the food was not meant for people who can keep anything down, the treatment sucked . but I knew if i could make it that long I could stop. I did and you can to.

I don't know if anyone is still replying but I really need someone to talk to you. I take about 2 80mg pills a day sometimes I will take 3 60mg it varies, my body is use to taking it and I am tired of it. I have been living with my parents and I got off of them before believe it or not I did it cold turkey actually I did it by putting God first and I was off of themf or two years and I went right back on it. Talking to one person, opening my mouth and hanging out with the wrong person. I am a really simple person. I take it work or go home. I don't drink or mix it with anything else, but I am tired of it. I am tired of spending my money. I am just sick and tired of it. Today is my first day and I am going to post to this site everyday that I am clean. If I can do it cold turkey with the help of God then anyone can.

Hello all, i've been addicted to Oxycodone for about 2 years now. I have a kidney blockage that I need surgery for, and the pain i get can be very very painful. The doctor that is in charge of my surgery doesn't want to book one right away because it isn't life threatening so i have to wait for an opening to have surgery. My family doctor has me on oxycodone 5/325 and he prescribes me 1 every 6 hours, but sometime the pain is too much that i have to take 2. Lately i've been taking 3 of them twice a day because if i don't i start to get depressed and can't sleep at night. I get a refill every friday but i always run out by tuesday or wed and then i go through withdrawal for 2 days, and it sucks huge. Like i said, i get depressed, anxiety, insomnia, my joints hurt, tons of withdrawal effects. I want to ease off them so i don't have to go through the withdrawal. What do you guys suggest ? Maybe in stead of 6 a day i could go down to 4 a day for a few weeks, then 3 then 2 then 1 ? Any reply would be helpful ! I really don't want to go cold turkey with this.

Hello everyone.Ive been reading some posts on here and feel very inspired so i decided to join in to see if i can help myself.About a year ago i hurt my back at work.I found out it was 2 slipped discs in my lower spine.My doctor prescribed me oxycodone 30mg 3 times a day.At that point i was already familiar with pain killers and was takin oxycodone here and there but with now symptoms of addiction.As of today,i am hooked on the medication.I take more then the 3 a day prescribed and end of getting some alternatives from people i know like vicodin and percocet until i can refill my script.The pills have taken over my life.Im very alone and distant from my friends and family from them.I obviously am an addict but dont consider myself a "drug addict." I have a great job that i wake up for every single day,i pay my bills and have nice things,the opposite description of what a drug addict would be.I know i have an addiction problem and im at the point where i want to quit completely.The farthest i have been was weaning myself down to a pill and a half a day from 5 sometimes 6 a day but i relapsed and fell right back in.I feel like alls i do now is work and relax home.My social life is non existstant because of how they have made me feel.I dont really socialize with any friends and some days not even my family because i just sit in my room and do not want to be bothered.Ive lost alot of self confidence as well and feel awkward goin out somehwhere and seein someone i know.Ill take any advice from anyone whos been through this to change my life around and get me back to my old self.My doctor did not want to write me the script,but he was simply helping me and doing his job and once told me to only take WHEN NEEDED and am almost afraid to tell him i became dependant on them.That is my story and any advice or methods to kick this addiction myself is appreciated!
