Are the wds going to hit been 24 hrs

Just want to update it has been over 24 hours since last norco and no major wds.  I feel very tired and muscles a little sore.  I am so thankful and just wonder if my body is just slow in feeling the effects.  Any word would help ease my mind. Still worried it is going to hit hard. Hope all has a good night.  Kay

First time here. scared of what will happen if i stop . I am scared to even think what all this acetaminophen has done to my liver function. I've ingested anywhere from 9,000 to 15,000 mg. every day for the past three years. i am scared of the truth of how bad the damage is but i want to live my life trying to be happy without being dependent on vicodin or any other thing . I'm so ashamed of what ive become. so depressed.

Are you taking anything else?  If not consider yourself lucky in this area.  Are you able to sleep?  Keep yourself hydrated and take warm baths or showers if you are achy.....sara

HI......well your 24 hrs in  usually that would put you in acute withdrawals .......about ones a month in here we get someone like you who gets a ''get out of jail free card'' and experiences little to no withdrawals .....take a minute to thank God for your mirical it no fun going threw withdrawals .....there is no way to explain it but for whatever reason your body has not reacted from the sudden discontinue of narcotics....are you taking any other pain meds??
if not your in the free and clear good luck and God bless......Gnarly

Hopefully this will be an easier Wd for you, I'm hoping it is.  I've been following your progress Lost lamb, and I really hope it doesn't hit you hard, but listen to the advice and dont worry too much about when its coming, just deal with the things as they come. There will be people here to help you out with any symptoms as they occur.  I'm just curious, how long have you been taking and how much? also will this be your first CT detox.  I may have read it in one of your earlier posts but I cant remember, I'm on day 4 myself and still not thinking right but maybe everything has to do with the amount and length of time you were using.  Anyway good luck to you, stay strong and let me know if you need anything cz I doubt I'll be sleeping again tonite. === K.J.

Try to just deal with what your going through right at this moment. It will just f with your mind if u keep thinking about what might be. From what I have read, different people suffer different wds. Maybe your a lucky one, who knows. I started having wds even when I was still taking my norcos. I tapered for just a few days, I think it made it worse. Seemed like it just added a couple extra days of crap and anxiety. At 24 hours I was in bad shape. Then 48-72 hours was the worst but at 24 I knew it was gonna get ugly. I left my house to go wd at my parents. Thank god for them and there support..I'm on day 11 and still haven't slept for more than 6 hours in one night and that was night 9. Everyone is different, just try to roll with it. Think of it as a bad *** flu. Good luck, check ya tomorrow. Or later if I can't sleep.
