Should I do a detox cleanse to help speed up the process?

[moonshyne]

I am in the middle doing a cold turkey detox from oxys. Would doing one of those detoxifying cleanses help speed things along? I have a good one I'd like to try, just wondered if I should start it now or wait.

Nothing is going speed up the process of something your brain is controlling.
???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

Where do you get your info please do not post what you do not know but think you know. Your whole statement is false. First there are many things you can do to calm and control the brain, plus excercise once your past the half-life of the pills will do wonders however its not easy to do. Excercise is by far the very best thing to reactivate your natural endorphins. Your brain works on chemistry you change the chemistry and you change the brain the brain does not control you but you control the brain. If you just stopped and do nothing and blame it on your brain your taking a fatalist attitude and it really really ***** for recovery.
I am sorry but your comments are not only discourging for recovery they are simply false which is worst.
Peace

Thanks for the info, I really appreciate it. I decided to hold off on doing the cleanse until later (your right, no use adding to my misery) I have still not done any oxy and today I feel better then I have in days. I'm just scared of using again but like you said, every time I'm tempted to do it I'll look at my two lil angels and remember why I NEED to stay clean. I'm also going to delete my dealers number off my phone. She knows I am going off them and I haven't heard from her since I started. I think she got the hint :) There is no easy way out of this I realize. I have to learn how to live life without pills. Having these two little buggers should occupy me enough to distract me when I have bad days and feel like using again. My grandmother is gone home now but she made me promise that if I get overwhelmed to call her and she'll come up and help. I could not have gotten through these first days of detox without her. Thank God for her. There is life after oxys and I can,t wait to start truly living without depending on a drug just to get out of bed in the morning. You and everyone else here has really helped me and I cannot thank you enough. I'm going to keep posting and one day I hope I can help others on here like they've helped me. thanks and God bless.

How are you doing about getting some chondine?
No type of natural detox is really a help with wds. It is certainly a help afterwards to get your system cleaned esp your liver. What happens is this once you stop using cold turkey and you hit the half life of the opiates that are in your system this triggers a response from your nero transmitters and nerves. Theer is really no advoiding this its nature part of the wds. Normanlly its only a very short time to hit the half life but then comes the wds. Some  people are saying they went on Sub...
and had no wds that is because its replacing  one for the other and I can tell you as other members have here you are only setting yourself up for another differnt kind of wds. Now its difffernt if you have the time to go to a clinic stay a week or so get on Ivs etc tec then it is possible with the right doctor to get through this with hardly no wds but such is not your case. If you truly want to quick get some Chondline, have only enough percs in your house to tapering down with. Erase the number of your supplier and block his number from calling you.Get firm with the supplier so he or she knows you mean business in a week you willl be clean. Right now your looking for something that is simply not there.
Its good you found this board but you need to taper now if the miracle happens that you are somehow through most of the wds now. The biggest favor you can you for yourself and esp you 2 little ones is flush every perc down the toliet. And get rid of that supplier.You must keep in mind it gets bettter each day. Look at the smiles on your 2 little ones faces when you feel a urge to start to take a perc.
All they see is a mommmy that loves them very much so make them proud.
This is the best time of your life to get clean. You have a 100% chance of using more and more if you do not and then will come a time where even the love of your kids will be hard to feel. So hang in there keep posting but make a plan and that plan has to begin with tapering down unless you feel you can cold turkey which with Chondline its very possible but with nothing its going to be too hard I am afrain in your current situation.
Always wishing you the best

I would not recommend doing a cleanse at this time.  Trust me on this, you will be getting a good clean out during detox.  It is very easy to dehydrate during detox, so make sure you drink lots of fluids.

i have done alot detox's in the past and they are not fun if you are in bad health. like haven't been eating right, smoker, around pollution. the detox stirs up all the impurities in you and makes you quite sick while it is eliminating them. like nasuea, bathroom issues, rashes.

hah while going through withdrawl i would not want to add this to it. the withdrawl is because the drug is not there anymore. not because it is still in your body. your brain is not getting it. the brain healing is the fastest way to get through it. that can be sped up with taking the amino acids and some decent nutrition.

LOL, Yep will definitely need some good reading material if I decide to do this cleanse thing. I am getting some strong cravings but I'm hanging in there. Fatigue, aches and anxiety are bad right now but still glad I'm not having another day like yesterday.

Now I understand what you are doing. I don't have any experience with it and can only suggest that you make certain you do not get dehydrated. Drink plenty of liquids and, if you can eat rice and bananas. Anything with potassium will help with the dehydration.

And lastly, get a good book. You will need it....

I am doing the Thomas method and no it's called Genesis Cleanse. Just makes you go to the washroom a lot so I figured that might help get it out of my system faster.

[moonshyne]

I snorted 40-60 mgs a day on average, sometimes more. Have been on them for 8 months. I am on my third day. Yesterday was the hardest day so far. Today I still feel pretty ****** but I'm hanging in there. Good luck and congrats on deciding to quit, it's hell at first but if you can make it part the initial real sickness it does slowly start to get better. I think I'll try this cleanse and see if it helps. I'll update and let everyone know if it helps or not.

Hi and Welcome!

Are you talking about the Wasserman Method? If so, please, please reconsider. I do not have personal experience with it but I have heard more horror stories then success stories.

I know all too well that cold turkey is hard hun, but you will not die from it. It may feel like it some days but it will be a week, maybe shorter depending on your usage and it will be over.

There are things you can do to help ease the withdrawal process. Go to the top right of the page and look through the health pages. You will find Amino Acid Protocol information as well as "The Thomas Recipe". So many members have had success using these methods.

Good luck and I hope you consider other avenues for detox.

Hi, moonshyne: I'm a little skeptical about these "detoxification" remedies, but it can't hurt ... if you've tried it before, and you felt better, then by all means go for it.

Sorry about your situation -- I'll be just behind you on the c/t thing ... how much, how long, and when did you stop?

Good Luck and Thanks a Bunch
