Go to a doctor and get help...suboxone, anti depressents, ambien can all help with withdrawals..but going to AA is reallly the ticket to freedom. You should be able to get off everything in a month or so and then have meetings to go to for the mental recovery it is the one thing no pill can do for you..

Well... I have tried to stop before and I couldnt sleep.. I got diarhea(spelling), my entire body hurt really bad, I would get dizzy, and honestly I couldnt handle it at all. I felt like I was losing my mind, like I dunno its hard to explain. I know 20mg isnt alot, but I have been taking it for over 4 years and alot of peoples stories do make me feel better knowing I do not intake a high amount... but yea thanks
Sports4Life, I certainly wouldn't make light of any one's station in life, but at the small amount you are taking, I wouldn't exactly call what you have as an addiction. You are more dependant than addicted. I would think stopping opiates would be fairly easy where you are now. There are other non-addictive pain relievers out there, so I would check with your Doctor to see what is available. I am sure that between the two of you, a happy medium can be reached. Just an observation.
Yeah im going to try the Thomas Recipe. It sounds good! I feel like a new year is not too long away for me! I am taking a weeks vacation off from work in 2 weeks and Im going to do the Thomas Recipe during that week and hopefully when I return to work I will feel decent enough to help clients.. You guys rock, thanks
it sounds like you have the will power to taper down. are you palnning on going c/t? have you checked into suboxone? it has done wonders for alot of people here with the w/d part. also check into the Thomas recipe, stay hydrated and take B12, post me w/ any other questions. i'll help you the best i can
tink
Well...I am in the same boat you are in. I am a bartender so I constantly have to be active annd deal with the public. This is going to be very hard for me because I know I am going to be really depressed. I just posted a thread on all the stuff I bought at Walgreens to help me. Go to the top right corner and type in Thomas Recipe. It gives you a lot of info on herbal and supplements. I am hoping all the stuff i bought helps. Even if it helps a little. I am currently taking about 150-200mg of oxycontin.
