wd's are no fun.  Lets see i was nauseated, diarrehea, the chills then hot, headache,shaky,jumpy skin, anxious,angry and with all of that it was the best thing that could of happened.  I kept in my head that i have to go thru this to get to the other side. I forced the vitamin water as i wasnt hungry.  Ate popsicles and pudding.  kept the food real bland.  This will all be worth it.  I know that is hard to believe right now but we have to rid our bodies of the toxins.  Take warm baths also.  They feel real good.  You are doing a great thing here.  Stay strong            sara

Hi Laura,
You are certainly not alone - -- I too am going through W/D's although I am tapering from a large addiction to Oxycontin.   All I know is that I hang onto the words of those on this site who went through this and tell me that it does get better.  What day are you on?   The physical part of the addiction may last a few days but the emotional/psychological part may take longer.  Hang in there girl - -- - we can do this - -- there are too many reasons not to fail - -- keep the faith --  pray ---- hold on.   My best wishes are with you.  Ochooked
