Just posting for advice..starting w/d's

[madisonjssmom]

Ugg..starting to sweat and yawning and stretching. I have 4 pills left it's been 17 hours since I had a pill. So scared of the withdrawl:(

[vicki595]

The way you're taking the last of those pills is keeping you in a state of withdrawal!  You need to get rid of them because they aren't helping you at all. They're making this worse for you.

Get your house in order, stock up on what you need and let this happen. We're here to help you through this-

I wonder why it blocked out the word, it wasn't a curse word. I wrote s*c*s

[kerri0219]

My first suggestion is to GET RID OF THE PILLS YOU HAVE LEFT! I went through the same thing and I had some pills left and by the 3rd morning they were all gone because I took them because they were there. If you really don't want to continue than I would get rid of the pills and don't talk to your "Friend" ... Withdrawal ***** but it's worth it! Baths do help but it's different for everyone. . My prayers are with you!

all you do with those pills your holding onto is prolong what your gonna go through unless you do a proper taper down to nothing. Flush them. I always read how people are scared and worried to death about w/ds. Its part of the whole vicious cycle and until you have set your mind to COMPLETELY stop, you will experience more sickness then you can imagine.

My advice is to get rid of whatever pills your still holding onto and let your body return to normal, breaking the vicious cycle is the first step.

Do the Thomas recipe and I swear by immodium.

I had to delete people from my phone then block numbers. I know it's scary but tell them you are done and you are beig watched. Make them afraid to call ya again. Cut the access.

I don't have to have the pills I'm only using right now because I'm scared of the w/d's. I'm not getting anymore pills going to use my money on more important things. Thank all of you for your kind words and advice. The stomach issues are starting now. I think I can handle this

Listen do you want to be free from this?! If so flush the rest of your pills and tell ur "friend" to stop calling and anyone else who is a "friend" and if this is what YOU WANT and not be bound by a prison buzz then jump with both feet in and join me I mean us on the roadto recovery...I am 21 days clean from a 8 year ride with opiates and the last five years I was on methadone. I know detoxing from what ur were on the first 3 to 4 days is intense but if you can just be strong in your will to survive the pain will subside...the real battle to be free comes after w/ds..and the end result is a new life. Are you a addict or aare you just scared of the physical part of it? I mean are you happy with yourllife?? The way I see us as addicts is that WE have been living in a world of lies and chaos darkness and when you realize this waistland has you feeling hopeless and your heart and eyes open for the first time and are looking for an answer, look thru those scared eyes and in the middle of that waistland is a BRIGHT LIGHT it is long beautiful happy/humble road that you will find a lot of  people running together forward in a  life OF HAPPINESS not wondering thru life in a dark waist land. Sry I get carried away buft thats why I ask, are you powerless over your addiction to pills? If your answer is no then pfff just tuff it out and listen to what they say about treating your symptoms and stay hydrated most important I think because you want to flush out your system so your body and mind can start healing. But if you say yes and ur an addict then you have come to the right place you will have these amazing pple here who will reach there hands out and all you have to do is reach for those hands  and hang on long enough until you can reach your hand out to pull another lost soul into our beautiful road of recovery....ive still got both hands squeezed tight...but the person to my left and my right have a free hand. Either way keep posting this place is amazing and full of pple who will help to get you thru it. I wish you the best.

I want to say stay strong a agree with lady: I built it up to and think that just makes it a little harder waiting instead of keeping busy. I am on day 9 and have been going through the depression but will tell you IT GETS BETTER. All of a sudden it's day 9 and I'm still thinking where did 1-8 go. Believe in yourself and posting on here has helped me more than I would if ever thought. Everybody is going through what you are or had before and we know the hell your living. Keep drinking lots of water and power aids and try as best as you can to eat, eat, eat. I have had RLS every night but last night I stuffed my face with 10 kit cat bars and made it through until the morning. My dogs have given me comfort because they don't judge the just love. If you have animals cats or dogs they are your friends. Stay strong your not alone. People here really care, I care and will support if you keep on posting. I was hesitant to post and finally did with an overwhelming amount of support that had gotten me through another day feeling better about myself. Hang in there day by day. Victory is just another sunrise away.

[madisonjssmom]

Thanks everyone. .. My "friend" just called wants me to get 40 more pills.. Ugg

[keek36]

You can do it. Don't freak out too much. Just remember how great it will be when you are free of your addiction!  Hot baths for sure.

[LadySailor86]

Don't build it up so much in your head. I was terrified and it wasn't near as bad as I thought it was gonna be. Hang in.  Thomas recipe. Baths, showers, movies. Anything I get ya thru.
