So, I'm getting off vicodin after a long bout with it so I was receiving Suboxone for treatment of that but I was having bad constipation so my dr. percribed vivitrol saying that it will help with the constipation, so I took an injection that is good for 1 month, which within 1 hour took me into bad w/d.  I 've had many w/d before with the vicodin but nothing like this.  So I went to the ER and they gave me clonidine.  I just wanted to know with all this stuff in my system, is that ok?  And when is it going to be over?  I'm serverly depress and I haven't feel like this in a long time.  Also I constantly want to literally jump out of skin...Is that normal?  Someone please help....

Ps. It's totally normal to want to jump out of your skin! That does get better until it eventually goes away.

Wow way to go on making the decision to get off what I call the crazy train! Being tied to a pill bottle su??s! I am 8 days clean from opiates myself and it is so worth it! I enjoy everything so much more clear headed! I use to tell myself everything is better with "medicine" but the truth is... It's simply not. Once u distance yourself from that mind set believe me u will see. Life is beautiful through clear eyes. Good luck you can do this. In just a short time u can have your life back.

I too am in the mddle of withdrawal once again and that jump out of my skin feeling is just com g on...  I can deal with alot of this but that creepy crawlie skin thing is the worst.  Just tell yourself this is the road to freedom.  All things will pass in time.  I know it sounds like a line of bull bt it s true.  In a few hours my family will all be sleepng and I will be wide awake and Rockne back and forth praying to god to help me out again!  He always comes thru for me...and he will for you as well!  I'm not saying it won't be hard but he never gives us something we can't handle...  We may not think we can handle it.  But we can!
