sorry i missed you last post down below. i took a cat nap. moved it up here so you would see it.
My story you asked about it: i am a 26 yr old female. I was hard core heroin addict in my teens. really i was a garbage head.. pot shrooms, lsd, coke, crack everything.. was in numerous treatment centers. before the last one i was picked up for questioning in a case against my dealers for drug trafficking. I was the one doing the driving to pick up the stuff. got a deal and was sent to a facility

You're quitting completely in 2 days? Since I know little of opiates, can I assume that 100 mg/d of Vicodin is a lot? Have you gone through much withdrawal yet while tapering?

don't know what happened my post went before i was done.. anyway..the facility was for cronic relapsers. i stayed clean and sober for what would be 7 years. 2 years ago i had multiple mouth surgeries and discovered i had a herniated disc. never stopped taking my meds. got up to almost 100mg a vicodin or percaset a day. started tapering a few months ago before finding this site. began focusing on tapering as soon as i discovered i couldn't live like this anymore.. i am down to 12mgs a day now i plan to stop next sunday. this place has given me so much hope and strength to get my life back.. i hope others get from it what i have..
