What about a diversion...

[pegatha1981]

I came in for the first time a couple of days ago, and I really did get some great input that I have taken to heart. That's why I'm here. Anyway, I'm coming off of Norco, and Hydrocodone. You thought it might be best that I not try to taper, However, I almost always go with what works for me. For some reason everything works opposite to what it should. For example: downers are uppers, and uppers are downers. That's why the Vicoden worked as an upper to me and seemed to help me with my depression. Well, I just remembered a prescription that I had for tenuate-dospan(upper). It was given to me about 3 years ago and out of 60 i only took 2 or 3 cuase I couldn't stand them. So That was wasted I thought. Well. this is the ? time I've tried to get away from the Hydrocodone in 2 years... so guess what? If you thought I'd try the thing I just mentioned, well that would be right. It's working and I'm not getting any of the weird reactions i did before...oh well, my real bottom line is to get back to 100%natutal. I have a goal...

Hey, i hope there's not a problem with my mentioning it. I was desperate not to feel so disconnected, etc. I looked thru my bag of tricks and that was it! I mentioned to you that I also take Ativan. I didn't have it when I got the prescription long ago for the Tenuate. They are workin' great together!  You can google tenuate and check it out...will help with energy. I'd rather take 1 of those than 10 of the other. Take Care.

tenuate-dospan,  I have never heard of it.  I hope it helps you with the w/d and I hope there isn't a prob. when you stop taking it.  With me energy has been a hugh prob.as it seems to be with alot of people on here.  I am thinking abt. asking my dr. for LDN to see if it will help me.  I can't find anyone who has used it to see if it has helped them or not  :(

Best wishes
