MedHelp Member's Question

Thank you. No more pills for me

by DanielleLeigh, Dec 28, 2006 12:00AM
I wanted to thank everyone! I took my last 10mg/325 hydro 2 nights ago. Last night was rough but I managed to get through it. I had the twitchy legs and achey muscles. I ended up taking a bath at midnight and that seemed to help alot. I wanted to thank everyone that has been so supportive on this website. I don't know if I would have been able to do it with you all. Thank you all so much. I will keep you all posted on how I am doing. :-)

Im not far behind you all,and it is posts like this one says tells us all that we can beat the addiction.



Keep going and dont look back on the addiction.

It is you now that leads the rest of us in recovery,when one fails we all feel the pain.



Happy New Year.

Wow!  Thank you for the encouragement.  There is a tremendous feeling of freedom when you hit about week 2.  I was so frightened by the future before and could not believe that I had become an addict (to put it bluntly).  Yeah, I do have occasional back pain.  That may have started my affair with Norco, but I was taking it just for the "feel good."  I remember going to meet my fiance's parents and having to find ways to take my Norco without my fiance or anyone else seeing me do it.  I thought I'd be in rehab someday, but, thank God, I found out I could get off of hydrocodone at home.  



Anyway, that's all over now.  Back pain calls for ibuprofen or Alleve, etc. and a nice, warm bath.  



Hang in there everybody!
