Hey Y'all,
I've been on here before...about two years ago, maybe? Well, here I am, again, addicted to Tramadol just like the last time only now...I'm literally going to give birth in one month and I'm trying to kick this habbit before I see my little baby in a world of pain. I am just...horrified and disgusted with myself. I am so ashamed that I haven't even told my doctor, whom I love to death. I couldn't ask for the best OB. But for some reason, I just can't bring myself to fess up to the destruction and harm I'm putting my unborn baby through. Everytime I go to my appointments they tell me that he's doing just fine, they smile, I smile, then secretly want to break down and cry, and then crawl into a deep dark hole and do god knows what.
So, starting Monday, I went from 4 tramadol per day (I know I know, shouldn't be a bad case for me but facts are it is, or I wouldn't be on here) to 3 per day. One at 7 am, one at 1 pm and 1 at 8pm. I just need to know the correct way I should be tapering off this drug. Such as after so many days go down to 2? Again, this is my third day so I don't feel TOO bad. But I still feel..well...not like myself as I would with only ONE MORE pill in my day. I need to do this for my baby. As well as for me. But my son is already my world and I just..I need help. Please someone with a strategy to kick this drug in the you know what for EVER.
Thank you so much for anybody deciding to help me... =/ ...I really need it.
