I slept good last night so I'n not so tired, I have no energy to do anything and I remember it takes time for the energy to come back.
No one in my family knows, they all think I am sick with the same virus my grandson had. (I have custody of him and his sister...6 and 4 years old.)
I tried the methadone route several years ago and ended up worse on that. After I detoxed of methadone I stayed clean off the pills for over two years. I had shoulder surgery and got a script for vicodin. That one little script was all I needed to head right back into the pill game.
Did you detox cold turkey?
ive just done my first opiate detox, hardest thing ive ever done, 60+ days now and still not great but much better.
my stomach isnt right either?
being free of pills (after long term use) is something few people ever achieve in my opinion.
they are very very very hard to quit for so many reasons.
well done for following your heart and starying strong................
