Day 8 !!!! Can't believe it....... It's been so much easier the cocodamols are now a distant memory ( which I shall NOT be cherishing ) it's been hard but I really feel I have made to the end ( almost) . No nausea , no aches and pains , started eating properly and don't feel as tired. Just some slight anxiety which really doesn't bother me once I busy myself . I know it's the codien causing it so just a few more days and hopefully it should get better. As each day is passing I really feel things are getting better and better. Now going to have a soak in the bath and then bed .

Happy you've made it so far, every day would be better than the day before. But just be careful, cause after the acute phase of withdrawal, one can be very prone to relapse again. So you gotta not underestimate the possiblity of craving that can hit you anytime, especially in moments of stress. When you are aware of that, you become really strong against the drug. Good luck.

Well it's the end of day 11 and I'm feeling fantastic!! The withdrawals are a thing of the past and I'm actually feeling " normal" . It's important to think about how to cope in stressful situations when you actually feel the need to take tablets. I've been taking kalms for a few days now and they have worked wonders for me. By the end of the day I'm feeling a lot more relaxed and settled. I would definitely recommend them.

16 days clean and dont miss them at all. I'm still having episodes of anxiety which I try to control but its something I manage to ride through and cope with. They do not last very long but still are unpleasant . I think it's my brain that's started to recover and get back to normal ( from what I have read anyway ) so these episodes shouldn't last long. I think I may have entered the PAWS now because there are no physical symptoms anymore just the psychology Of it . Sleep is a lot better and feels more like natural sleep which leaves me feeling fresh in the morning . I have to say as each day passes it does get easier. Vitamins are a must and also some herbal remedy such as kalms which gas valerian root to help relax and calm the the nerves. I hope everybody is doing ok and best of luck to you all .... Keep posting

I know it's been awhile, and you've probably forgotten the entire wretched experience. But I am now in the same position, coming off Co-Codamel. Three weeks tapering before cold turkey. Two weeks into that the most I suffer is tension headaches which outweigh the rest of symptoms. Just found your blog. Wish me luck, and hope you've kicked the habit.

Well I stopped 6 days ago but thought it was ok to take 2 dhc at night but think this has just messed me up as yesterday was the worst day of my life! So depressed and craving the tablets was awful! Today just feel like c**p. So annoyed at myself as yesterday and today should have been a turning point for me if I hadn't of took them dhc I would have been over the worst!! Do you think I'm only starting my withdrawal now??
