Now or later or what?

So I did quit taking 5-8 percocets in Nov for one month, caved in as I just needed to get a good nights sleep. Big mistake there...any way I stopped again last Thursday just for three days. I have taken four pills each day since Saturday night. I know this site provides support and I have another great site that is very supportive. My questions...I am going on vacation to Florida this Saturday. Would you suggest that I try again to stop c/t. I will be on my fourth day when we leave for the trip. We have three days booked at Disney Land. I can't imagine walking around Disney going through w/d but maybe I would be over the w/d by then. We are going to Disney on the Monday. Wed and Friday...my other option is to take just say two or three a day over the course of the trip. I would be cutting down tremendously from previous amounts, just enough to help me get through a long day at Disney. Any thoughts..

I'll visit my other support site as well and see what others have to say

Thanks...another support site I visit and posted the same question came back with the same reply as you. I should listen to you all. Thanks for taking the time to respond. I guess I just needed a few people to push me in the 'right' direction.

I know you might want me to tell you to take those few pills for the trip, but I can't lol. I would suggest trying to stop the four your taking now c/t and see how you feel by then. I know it's tough, but just think of being free from them and not having to worry about w/d's and all the other hassles that come with pills. Maybe by the time you leave, you will be feeling a lot better. Have you tried taking any supplements to help with w/d's? Good luck and hope you have a great time:)
