Relapsed 1st time. Day 2 c/t

I quit c/t a month ago from 7.5 percocet. I got a refill 2 weeks ago of 120 pills & needless to say. They are all gone. I want to do it this time! I'm on day 2 c/t again. Mild w/d symptoms. Can't keep out if the bathroom.  no energy. Called out of work today. Off tomorrow. Two young kids at home. Forcing myself to get up & do chores & stuff. Can't eat anything. Taking vitamins & liquid b12. Valerian root at night. Any words would be great. Thanks.

you did good. you caught yourself before you spiraled out of control. congrats for that. continue to move around. drink lots of fluids, take immodium. were you going to any aftercare? if not you need to get that in place this time to prevent any other relapses. counselors,therapist,addiction specialist,na/aa,church. keep yourself busy. start exercising, take the kids for a walk, to the park,. continue to come on here for support. keep on truckin', press on, be encouraged, keep the faith, be hopeful, keep fighting the good fight, you got this. be strong, you are so worth it.
sending you blessings and hugs,
debbie

You are making the right choice by telling the Dr. if you have no other means to obtain pills. This is the first time I've opened up to him, and I'm glad I did. I know its hard, but you can do it. God bless.

I tried calling my doc to tell him no more. But he is on vacation this week. He has me on a taper to quit but I abuse it. I need to call him Monday morning & tell him I'm done. Thanks everyone for your words. It's easier knowing all of you are there. I have support here, but nobody who can relate. Im not doing NA I've never been a counseling type of person. I am open and honest with everyone who knows me. I've never been the type to buy them on the street & I'm glad I don't know anyone!

Glad you are getting back on track. I wish you the best of luck. I do have a question tho in a few weeks are you going to have another refill waiting at the pharmacy? If you do you may have to call and cancel it. If you are taking 120 pills in a week or two you may not be able to NOT pick up the refill know what I mean? Just something to think about....

I am right there with you. I also had quit  on may 5, and may 17 I called the Dr., and gobbled them up in 19 days. But this time after my relapse, I told my Dr. that I had a problem. I know, that is very hard to do, but it cut my easy access to more pills. I've never bought pills on the street, and have no desire to, it can break the bank really quickly. You can do this. God bless.
