Trying to get my life back from Oxycontin

Been selfmedicating for the past 3 years w/Percosets,Vicodin and Oxycontin,never dreamed
of any real serious complications,as most were average doses obtained from friends and the
Oxy being supplied by my doctor.
Finally caught up to me in the form of depression and just plain lack of interest in about everything.
Recently discussed a withdrawel program with my doctor after I was honest with him.
Would like to hear from those with similar interests,and possible suggestions on withdrawal.

Thanks
