She has a point tho u have got clean off alot harder narcotics than norcos so u obviously know the right way but if I can help send me a MSG and I'll give u the list of vitamins I use that help the physical wd's to bad not much but time helps the mental cause that's the hardest part which I'm sure u know
You know the drill in getting clean so what are you going to do different this time to stay clean? sara
Get some drinks with electroliyes(Gatorade,powerade.......) and drink those like they r goin out of style. Amino acids(helps with fatigue). Vitamin C. And it's not a bad idea to try some milk thistle caps either cause that helps with the liver and will speed up detox cause it promotes healthy liver functions and I think someone else already said the potassium and magnesium to help fight the restless legs and meletonin to help with sleep at night. I took this and a few other things when I came off anywhere from 150-250 mg ofnoxy a day if u would like me to tell u all the stuff I took that I found to help from the many times I went thru withdrawals send me a private MSG and I'll let ya know man. Well hope I can help and am willing to help anyone any way I can and good luck gettin clean again
Thanks for all of the responses. Still trying 1965 I wish you the best of luck. I know how powerful heroin is. I also know how great life can be. I look forward to having it back. My life completely stopped the second I took that first drink after 3 years. I have done it 3 different times. The first time I was sober 6 months going to NA and AA meetings. The second time I made it 4 months living at a half way house and going to meetings. This last time I went to Uturn for christ (a christian rehab program) and made it almost 3 years. The thing that I liked about uturn is we didn't talk about addiction very much. We just talked about christ, the bible, and life. For me it got difficult at meetings sometimes when people would tell in depth stories about doing drugs. It would bring me right back. I will probably go to some AA meetings soon. I do enjoy them and it does help. I am very grateful to get the immodium advise. I don't know why I didn't think of that before. It's funny. I have spent a lifetime self medicating, but I do whatever I can to stay away from aspirin, immodium, or any other over the counter drugs. Anyways, I really do appreciate everyones help. I will definately take some vitamins, minerals, immodium, and valerian root. If valerian root helped with a methadone detox it's got to help with a norco detox. Methadone is wicked. I hope everyone has success in their battles.
Yes, for the runs do the imodiam. It works great. For the anxiety, try some valerian root. You can get it at a GNC or any vitamin store. Valerian Root is natures valium, so it may work for you. It helped me a lot when I was comming off methadone. It calmed me down and helped me sleep. Try it
Good Luck

Dont apologise jed we have all done it. I had over 200 days clean after a 13yr heroin habit and relapsed for a couple of weeks, now thats what you call down right mad but im starting again and im 6 days clean i cant tell you anything else except what John says its good advise. If you can beat heroin w/d you can beat anything.Do you go to N?A meetings or a counselour. Iv just started them it really does help. I can only advise something herbal for the anxiety.
Well jed, for the runs... get some immodium ad. It helped me. I don't know what to tell you about the anxiety. I don't want to say take something for it because, fighting fire with fire is never good. Eat vitamins and drink lots of water. Eat alot of bananas for potassium. Get rest anyway you can. I wish you all the best of luck.
