I THOUGHT I'D POST THIS FOR MORGAN.  

To: anyone on line
I am strugling with the addition to Percocet.  It all started the same way.  I had the neck, back and leg pains.  Dr's gave Percocet and rest goes with out saying.  Last night @ 11pm was my last one.  I am doing ok today -- I feel very much at edge and couldn't sleep last night.  I think tonight might get a little harder, at what point should I expect the withdrawals?  Diarrhea, vomiting, flu like sx, edgy?

i too am addicted to percocet 10mg.  i take like 4-6 a day.  i am trying to ween myself off though, not going too well.  i have a back injury that i am struggling with.  i never made it through the third day of wd.  i know everyone is different, but my withdrawals were the worst on the 2nd and 3rd day.  i know a lot of people here had the same thing.  the rls, diarrhea, nausea, sleeplessness, anxiety, it is all normal.  do you want to quit taking them, or did you run out and that was when you decided?  how many were you taking a day? well, you defininitly came to the right place and listen to joanne, the thomas recipe and amino acid protocol work wonders for many.  i bought melatonin yesterday, it's an amino acid that promotes sleep.  i took one last night and was very calm and then passed out and slept like a baby.  no, i didn't take a perc too..hah..by the way..welcome to the forum!!

Morgan...Welcome to the forum. I think the wds will hit anytime and the physical part will last you about 5-7 days like a bad flu with the mental lasting longer.

On the right side of the screen there are Health Pages if you will click on those and read the Thomas Recipe and the Amino Acid Protocols....that stuff will help you alot!

Also, posting and reading on here!

You will be happy to be clean!
