By the way...if you give him just one or two a day it will prolong the withdrawals...i made that mistake.
He will have BAD flu like symptoms...stock up on the immodium and TP. Chills, MAJOR anxiety, depressions...i cried ALOT! RLS and probably not much sleep. Just make sure he eats and stays hydrated. I stopped eating and got really dehydrated which made it even worse. He will say he feels like he is dying but he will not die from the w/d from hyrocodone. Hot baths helped me the most....as many a day as needed!!! It will help with chills, help him relalx and possibly catch a few zzzz's. He will be very irritable as well. Try and get him to take a litle walk. It will seem imposible but it helps alot too!
ok quick question. what should i expect the first couple of days with him quitting? he already told me he doesnt think he could do it C/T but i do have control of his pills they are in a safe at home. i dont know what to expect if his attitude will change bad dreams i have no clue.and i dont know how many to start him off with.. i know he takes about 8 a day.. he said before we met he had a really bad prob and then quit so i know he can do it. but he said his friends he was hanging with got him back into it.
my advice is how he choses to handle the situation is he quitting C/T or ween ( i dont suggest personally) if he wants to quit the time is now you have to be his support my G/F was mine a bonus shes a dr and knew how to help me detox at home
