b vitamins mainly b-12 and l-tyrosine will help with the energy a little bit if you want to try that you wont find the l tyrosine at cvs or anything you will have to go to a vitamin or health food store to find it

i didnt use the amino acid or thomas recipe exactly i used something from both of them and found what worked the best for me but either of them will help nothing is going to take the withdrawals completely away only make it a little easier but i would suggest even while on the taper taking some vitamins like a good multivitamin some b vitamins and vit c and for the cramps in your legs and rls the best for that is potassium and magnesium that is a life saver to get thru the withdrawals and i would say a MUST HAVE for anyone

Great choice and way to go on being strong and saying no to the oxy because that just opens a whole new chapter and congrats on not even thinking about doing so because most of us did not do as you did and said o what the hell and tried the oxy just like i did and got up to about a 250mg oxy a day problem before i decided enough is enough and coming off of that much oxy is alot harder than coming off norco because i had been trying for a long time to get clean and started trying when i was only taking norco it just never stuck until it go just way out of hand and i finally did it well once again congrats on the clean time and on being strong enough to say no to the oxy that is AWESOME just stay strong and hang in there because it is only going to get better from here for the anxiety you talk about to now that most of your withdrawals are over i would suggest putting the xanax down and getting some valerian root u can get it at any pharmacy it works like a benzo and will help with anxiety because like im sure you know xanax are just as dangerous as the pain pills you were taking are
Good luck and Godspeed
