How do you exersise during w/d, that sounds like chinese water torture.

thanks I actually started trying to taper my self off with some  davocet a couple days ago ...but there about gone and i want have anything but percs and i really dont want them....but the mental effect is what i am really worried about i hadnt felt like my self in days and i was wondering how long it would take for me to feel like myself again.....

IBKleen is right i started abusing percs 5 years ago and a few months ago got into abusing oxycontin. Stop now before it gets much worse. I only wish i could go back too when i used to just use percs.seems like my problem has become so huge now that its almost overwhelming. I'm not going to give up though and dont you either.

with regards to cold turkey, i once came off using 80 mgs of oxycontin daily, cold turkey and by day 3 i was starting to feel better.

3 days with no work, and then maybe a week for sleep and mental problems to subside.  It won't be easy, and alone time is a plus.

if I quite cold turkey how long will it take me to get it out my system? and about how long will it take 4 me to stop feeling the effects of the withdrawls?

"Quitting cold turkey isn't as delicious as it sounds" by Homer J Simpson.  And to answer your question, like IBKleen said, it will take some time to readjust, but you can make it!

Yes it is. You can do this though. Taper of cold turkey..your choice. I can suggest that you do it now before it gets worse.
