How Long Does this Dazed Feeling Last?

I had been taking a somewhat minimal amount of hydro for the past two years (15-20mg per day). Whenever I try to kick them entirely I have some wd's which I would expect - like the sleeplessness, RLS.  Fortunately I don't have to use the bathroom any more frequently, guess I should be thankful huh?
But I think the worst thing is the dazed, out of it, fuzzy head feeling I get that lasts for at least a week... One week is the longest I've ever made it before relapsing into the daily habit.  
So can anyone tell me if they had this same feeling and how long it lasted for them?  Does it EVER go away?  I mean, maybe I used to feel like this before but it was normal for me then...?  Ugh, this is awful and IMPOSSIBLE!  I am hopeless.

its 7.51 pm here in philly,
to answer your question , oxy is a lot stronger and mor difficult to kick.
they all are drugs that will suck the life right out of you.
but 8 pills a day is the fda limit and you are okay wih taking
that amount, anything more and your entering into the danger zone
for liver and kidney problems.
they all have nasty withdrawls, severe depression, totol lack of energy. it takes about 5 days to get over the worst part, and another 5 or 6 week to get back to some sense of normalicy,

the lack of energy is tough to deal with, i aiways had a propblem with the severe depression when trying to kick  a 15 to 20   a day vuke habit, untill i found the receipe, which took
the depression away, and helped  a whole lot with the lack of energy

keep posting

Hey all:

     Day 12 here and doing well, but I've been on the run all day.  I spent a long time reading all the posts (in today's new threads, anyway)and now I gotta run again . . .

     For those who were asking about lethargy, I can't say enough good things about L-Tyrosine - I have been feeling so good with it that I've actually thought I was feeling a good hydro buzz.  I really wonder if it wasn't something I was missing before, that made the hydro seem so attractive to me -- because I never really felt *good* before and I loved the way hydro made me feel *good* and satisified with life.

     Hope everyone has a good weekend.
