Day 3
by Soonerdean, Jul 06, 2007 12:00AM
DAY 3 FOR ME! No hydros for 3 days. Feeling jittery, anxious, get the sweats and have no energy at all....legs feel like noodles. Is this normal? The good news is I'm feeling like I am returning to my old self which is the goal.
It was 3 years ago to the month that I took my first Lortab. Looking back I can recall calling my doctor and saying "my feet hurt worse now that it is cold...or...my feet hurt now that it is raining." What a lie! I really do have cronic pain in both feet..they sting and burn all the time. Pretty good excuse to use. I didn't even realize I was an addict until 7 months ago when I could not afford my Fentanyl patches and was going crazy.
That is when I got scared and realized what I had to do. It has been pure HELL every step of the way.
The people on this board have been my lifeline. Somehow saying "Thank you" does not seem enough. I wish there was a way we could meet and dinner would be on me. You guys/gals gave me my life back. I still have a way to go but am determined.
GOD BLESS ALL OF YOU!

Again Congrats.. keep on fighting
Now i am soooooooo bored and don't know what to do with a sober mind.Crazy.I hope i can find something to enjoy as everything i used to do involved drugs and or alcohol.I do know i would rather be bored than chasing those lil yellow pills all over town.Hang in there the worst is almost over and then comes a new life.God Bless Bruce
Norco was my candy. Those five letters...what a meal. lol
Good luck to you. Benzos work well for sleep. Nothing else works for me. I'm an insomniac and hate any time of diphenhydromene (tylenol pm) (excedrin pm). However if you do wish to go this route I suggest the excedrin because it contains 38mg diph with less apap. tylenol having 25mg diph and obvious large amounts of apap. Assuming your hydro addiction had a lot of apap it always good to say good bye to that. Good luck,
God Bless
I have NO energy to do any thing other than type and feel sorry for myself. I am also so mad at myself for geting back on the pills after being clean over 2 years from them. It really scares me to know that I can never take another opiate again. I am taking today minute by minute.
