I know what you are feeling. I have been right exactly in your shoes and can promise you that although you hurt it will pass. These are symptoms and they hurt and they **** you off and you may want to blame but if I can say anything to encourage you it takes someone who is amazingly strong, amazing truth and integrity to do what you have started. I am behind you and know you by addiction. I offer my self to you to listen pray whatever. You will beat this and you will one day help someone just like you. Stay strong and know you are fighting for your life its the real deal. Cheche0904

I know what you are experiencing..I am titrating off of Fentanyl I was at the dose of 100mcg and now I am at 50 mcg,  I experienced the sweats, feeling horrible and it feels like the life is being sucked out of you.  It is not easy..please listen to all the good folks on this site. You can make it. We all went thru this state//it takes a toll on your body physically,mentally and spiritually. Be strong.  Keep yourself hydrated and try and eat a balanced diet, try and stay active. Will be praying for you. My next drop of fentanyl will be 37 mcg...I will really have to stay strong! Good luck and God bless  Hugs/Smiles Cindi

What you are feeling is very, very normal, and thinking that you can't do it is also normal. Hundreds have made it through and are living a clean life. BUT, if you have access to meds this is the time that most relapse. Hopefully you've already cut your sources and put up roadblocks. If not, do it because you will lose the battle if pills are around or are easily available.
I promise, promise you - you can get through this. The time will drag, but before you know it you'll be in to day four and will start to see the light at the end of detox hell. 19 hours have passed, a massive amount of time. Now on to the next 19 and beyond.

26 hours is great.  You have 1 whole clean day behind you and you're working on the next.  No, it isn't easy but it is doable.  Start thinking that you CAN do this.  You ARE doing it.
You are almost half way there to the worst being over.
Don't give up now.

What exactly is going on? Every single one of us felt like we weren't strong enough and that we couldn't do it at some point. You can though! You deserve a life free from the shackles of opiates! Hang in there and keep talking to us.
