help for cold turkey HC

HI all I am coming to you guys because I am on the 36 hr mark of getting off HC. I have been on HC since 05.On average it was 8-10 pills a day sometimes more counting on my mood.I started my days by eating 3-4 of anything i had. I only take xanax when I cant sleep but want nothing to do with them seeing what close friends lost and their aftermath. It F****n sux when i have my mind on something else or even in music i can pick out little snuck in lyrics that to me refer to getting high etccc. I tried to work today and omg i was a slug,i then layed on the floor and powernapped.the knee pain started, then my knees ached until I took a 2 motrin 800s. I had diarrhea 6 times today. I cant stand this bs. I jus woke up from a nap again and i feel better. Wat is the best way to get off this w/o detox($$). anything herbal or household help. all I hear is the back of my brain saying go get pills nothing at all tops these thoughts. help?

HI WElcome to the forum ....you been given some good advise right now your in the middle of acute withdrawal so about all you can do is ride out the storm this last about 4 days till you start to feel better usually day 5 or 6 you come out of it just keep telling yourself its only temporary I do truly beleve this is a battle one or lost in ones own mind so attitude is important do your best to keep a positive attitude threw the whole process and dont loos sit of the goal you wont be chained to a pill bottle any more a hot soak releves most of the symptoms sleep is not likely dont force it just get up and vedge on the tube hang in there keep posting for support good luck and God bless.......Gnarly
