Hooked on Hydrocodone

[3months512]

Wanted to let you know that I'm on day 6 and I'm feeling pretty close to normal.  I have some energy back and had a fairly decent nights sleep.  Just need to continue to stay off the pills and resist the temp to get another scrip.  And learn to deal with the pain another way.  Thanks everyone for your support.  

For all of you that are going through w/d - hang in there, pretend you have the flu and you'll get better.  Bless us all for trying to get clean.

Well ****, i have 1 pill left and its sad but i can get more from my mom.  Im so sick of needing a pill to live.  Damit if you guys can do it so can I!  Yea just after i take that last pill i have.  I hate being compelled to just take 1 more.  Ive been on hydrocodone for about 2yrs.  I have mostly only taken 1 or 2 aday, in the last few days i been up to 4.  Its not like from what ive read on you guys post that i should have any major withdraws with the low dose ive been taking but im afraid because ive been using for a couple of yrs everyday.  I really admire you guys for even being able to stop.  Im so disgusted with myself for being so weak.  So only 4 days of pain right?

Congrats to you and your husband for wanting to come clean.  Hats off to you parents out there having to go through w/d.  I was fortunate, I didn't have to acct. to anyone but my husband who has been supportive.

Don't worry about the tree/Christmas dec., mine's still up along with outside lights and everything else.  Maybe this weekend, we'll get to it.  Now - I'm just washing clothes, and go grocery shopping - this will be my first time out on my own.

Hopeless, please keep it up for your daughter, husband and especially you!  There are so many wonderful things that can make life wonderful.   Make the most of it !!

Congrats on day 6.. Im almost there.. I consider myself to be at day 4 1/2 because I took my last 1 pill at 7am on Friday and started w/d's later that day. I too feel better today, my leg pain is way better today but my anxiety kicked in. I dont like this feeling at all. Im trying some vitamin b and chamonile tea to calm the anxiety. But the anxiety is WAY easier to deal with then the physical pain from the w/d's.
And I have just been telling myself that I have the flu and it will go away soon. I have the will power to stay clean, and Ive already cut off all ties with my dealers. I cant wait for some energy.. hopefully on day 6 I might have some energy to get up and clean or even take down my Christmas tree..lol. Good luck to you staying clean, you are doing great.
