Lortab Addiction

I really need some help. I had back surgery 6 years ago and it failed, left me with chronic back and leg pain. Been taking Lortab ever since. My daughter - 20 who is also addicted, are staying in a cabin in the mountains about 7 hours drive away from temptation. We are three days into withdrawels. No sleep, poor appetite, creepy crawlies big-time, irritable as H---. Can someone please tell me how long the actual physical withdrawels last? We are going home in three days and that's when the true test I know will come. The mental part is driving us both crazy.  Mine are Dr. prescribed. Daughter started taking them from someone she knows to deal with father's alcohol addiction. If any of you out there believe in God and pray, please, please pray for us now. Thank you.

i'm very proud of you for taking the step to clean up.  i've been on loratab for 2 years taking about 3-4 pills a day i know thats not alot to some but without them.  i'm not a person to be around.  did u have any sickness from the withdrawls.  i tried about 7 months ago and was sweating,  sick to stomach wanted to thow up and ever time i smoked a cig.  i felt worse.  my husband gave me valium and it  helped and i was clean.   but after a couple months i found them again and the habbit started again.  try the valium it works wonders if you feel the need for a fix.  after about the 3 day i felt great god i wish i had the strenght to get off.  it crazy how a pill can control you.  please pray for me also
