day 4 of no vicodin

[done4good]

I feel better but woke up with a racing heart and my anxiety is over the top.
Last night I took a flexeril and an ambien to sleep and that was so nice.
I wish I could just keep sleeping till this is over but I have to live my life, to work etc.

thanks firefaery,
this board has helped me so much. Only 3 others know about this issue. One has successfully recovered from this and clean a year. I am thankful I have been to WFS in my area and met her there or I would not have had a F2F person to tell this to.
I know I have a lot ahead of me. My whole goal in getting off the perc/vike was to be able to go to outpatient. They will only take you inpatient if still using I guess. I'm one of those multi-purpose addicts I guess...anything that will make me feel good..opiates, alcohol....ugh
I will try to help out here when I'm better because you guys have helped me so much already and I'm not even thru this yet.

Day 4, your almost through the worst, please keep your chin up dear!  I know I felt the same way and I couldn't sleep at all.  I had the worst restlessness, I ended up cleaning every inch of my house in the middle of the night because I couldn't handle laying in bed and that helped me a lot.  Keep up the good work and congratulations!
