Today is day 4 for me, I had been taking 12 10 mg a day for 2 years, I finally took a look at myself n hated what I had become. It's still hard but I know that I never want to go back to day 1, I found for those of on day one sleep for the first 2 days n treat the dirreah and stay hydrate every time you wake up bc u will wake up, this is my second but first time to actually quit, once u hit day 3 it gets so much easier, each morning I wake up I tell myself one day at a time that's what gets me thru, I checked my bank account n was so excited there was so much cash n there lol my habitat cost me ne where from 200_400 a week. That's a car payment and so many other things I can provide for my child, hot baths help so much, banana intake helps with rls too I started that today and already feel the difference, I will definitely come back with an update
i know exactly what yall are going threw w/d ***** anyone out there?
I will be 30 days clean tomorrow! My life is so much better..I will never take hydro again. I feel like I had been in a fog. Each and everyday keeps getting better. The 1st wk was soooo BAD. I couldn't sleep, had RLS, cried all day, was so tired I felt like I could not move. I started drinking lots of water and green tea, ate healthy, took lots of hot baths. The no sleeping and rls was the worst. But with each day that passed I got better and better. I have no cravings for my pills. Sometimes sleep is still iffy. But my energy is great. I just feel like a hugh fog has lifted. Just keep on, keeping on..Stay strong..I also started taking multi vits and B12..You can do this..One day at a time. Good Luck.
I know you don't want to hear this, but ALL of these problems will go away, probably quickly.
I was taking 180 mg methadone ,10- 10/350 mg of Lorcet 8- 350mg of Soma, 4- 2mg of ativan and sleeping pill of restoril. DAILY.
My dr ended up retiring and actually ended up saving my life. I am a chronic pain patient but I was literally overdosing everyday and my body was shutting down. I didn't have long.
I went to a pain specialist and a psychiatrist for the anxiety and got on the right amounts. I still am on methadone, oxycodone, ativan and ambien but at a 8th of what I was taking,
I HAD THE WORST 2 WEEKS OF MY LIFE GETTING OFF THAT. I DIDN'T SLEEP FOR 7 days straight, and that make everything worse.
If you have legit pain go to a pain specialist. If not I can tell you that those jumps, sleeplessness,aches and pains will go away, but you need to go through a few more days.(I AM NOT A DOCTOR THIS IS JUST MY EXPERIENCE)
If you just need to talk I will try and get on as much as possible.
After all that happened and is still happening to me I am running a Chronic Pain Group, and trying to give back, so if I can help anyone .........
