Norco 10 325 mg

[therealmattj]

I have been on Norco for the past 3 years. Just yesterday I went to the local wallgreens to grab a refill and they were back ordered. I had popped my last three pills in the morning and the reality set in that I have no way of (legally) getting these little yellow pills for another few days or so. I hated the way that I felt, the panic, being so scared to know that I can not lay in bed with a nice warm meal watching a movie with my daily opiate high. I realized at this point how scary and sad this addiction is. It completely controls my entire life. Its funny because the people around me think oh no big deal, you just have to wait a few days and you are good but they yet to understand the panic that sets in and how the withdrawls take effect. Lets face it, I am basically an oral heroin addict. I did research this morning and researched a few websites and in conclusion it seems that in Los Angeles you have to be a rich addict to get help. Every rehab is rediculous! Im already punished enough as it is for my stupidity on getting to this level but now it seems that I am seeking to maintain my addiction because I cant financially afford  to get clean. For those people who have posted " oh its gonna suck for a week but youll get through it" I completely disagree with. The amount that I take is severe and I know that if I cold turkey I will die. Does anyone have any information on phone numbers or an affordable rehab? Should I just go to the local hospitals ER?. As of right now my heart is skipping beats and is classified as Atrial Phibillation. The worst withdrawl I can ever imagine. I have no choice but to call the dealer and get atleast some so that I do not jump off of my balcony. Does anyone have any advice on what to do besides taking imodium and drinking lots of water? Should I taper off? does that work? Thank you for your time, seriously all who post on hear are angels and I wish that you can all reach out to the whole world because life without eachother is a life that should not exist. Love and Respect to you all. Matt

i am ready very ready for sobriety i am powerless over these damn things they have consumed my life. the way they consume my daily thoughts i think about them all day its awful. ive been able to quit smoking and drinking i was never a heavy drinker i did however drink to get drunk so that made me a alcoholic well i quit cold turkey those bad habits years ago but struggle with this one. thanks for your advice i appreciate it

Sorry, but cold-turkey is the only way to travel down this long and winding road.

Unfortunately, tapering doesn't work (for most people), unless it's strictly supervised. If you go to your doctor, and get on a taper program, and it's not supervised (your pills given to you by a responsible adult that will dispense per the doctors taper instructions), what's to stop you from abusing them, or just taking them all?

And if that happens, you'll be back here asking the same question, and I'll be saying the same thing... COLD TURKEY.

Do you want to stop taking pills? Are you ready to take the most important step, in life, that you've ever taken? Are you ready for sobriety? Have you admitted to yourself that your life is unmanageable and that you are powerless over pills?

3 words... COLD TUR KEY

i was on percs 10/325  20 pills a day for three years just in the last few days i made the choice to stop.  I came clean with my family then my doctor, all were ready to help. my doc put me on a taper off plan.  I gave all my pills to my sister and she gives me my doses daily.  in a couple of days i went from 20 10mg percs to 6 5mg vicodin and soon will be off those to.  with the amount you have been on you should talk with your doc (be honest!) he will be very willing to help.  be strong and know that u can do this.

There are 15 Walgreens located within 15 miles of Hollywood, all open 24 hours. So please don't jump off of your balcony. i would think that your Walgreens could transfer your script to one of those. It would be best just to quit now, 2nd best, differnt walgreens, third choice is not an option.

tapering doesn't work IF you do it alone. we've all tried and all failed. you need to find someone you know and trust tell them you have a problem. second you have to want to quit. you hve to want to or your not going to get very far. you may feel like your going to die and WAY out of your comfort zone. but it's better to get it over with then continuing useing and not being your old self.
