Hi Drake, thinking of you. Please let us know how you are. You have a heap of people on here that will always be here for you.
Hey Drake good to see you made it threw the detox when you get home google N/A meeting in your aera this is a critical step to recovery the meetings are only a hour long and will give you some plase to share where the people will understand you have to realize that the addict in your head is alive and well long after the pills are gone without aftercare most will fail hopelessly I wish you all the best in your recovery but recovery takes work you wont regret going to the meetings........................Gnarly
Immensely overwhelmingly proud of you. Please seek out help. It must be great but also very new to not be taking pills.
No i understood and Today is day 5 I feel great!!! But my stomach is hard as a rock and it hurts like and excruciating pain. I'm working so I can't go to the er but I seriously feel like my intestines are gonna explode. Anyway to give this a little bit of relief until tomorrow
Drake!!!!! What a journey this has been!!!! Soooooooo proud of you for committing and sticking to your guns, (hope this isn't an Aussie saying lol). I'm here for the rest of your journey.
Please seek the therapist out as number 1 priority as in more important then your next breathe.
Keep in touch and congratulations on your already clean days!!!!!!

Good to hear how you're doing. When you get home would you consider seeing counsellor from clinic you looked into?
Well thank u all for the advice I woke up today not feeling to bad my stomach just really hurts I took a sleep aide to help sleep lastnight and I honestly wokw up today feeling good I honestly feel 5 days is better then none just duebto the fact its been so bad lately that I couldn't even make it a couple hours I would stay out here longer but I just have to get back to work . I'm hoping as soon as I get home this all don't go down the drain but I really wanna quit this time so as long as I have high hopes I can be okay and stay strong I cut all resources and I'm good on that and I'm changing my phone number tomorrow so I'll defiently be good thank you all for ur advice.
Hi Drake,
You know what I've just gone and done. I doubt after 5 days of cold turkey you will be well enough to go to work. I think you should look into staying longer with your sister? Good on you.

Hey good for you for trying again and coming back to post! I agree that you have to cut your sources, make it very hard to get any substances. You can definitely do this. I admire your perseverance!!!
Drake welcome back. Listen, are you sure 5 days is enough? When you get home is there anyway for you to score? I forgot if you buy or have a script, but making sure you can't get any pills is absolutely essential. You need to need to make it extremely hard to get anything, next to impossible really. You have to cut the sources permanently for this to work. What's your plan?
You both are doing awsome I had 6 days with only taking a couple subs but didn't make it CT filled my script and I am trying to win myself slowly I take norco 10 325 for 8 years now it's very scary and uncomfortable but you two give me hope that I will do this again soon. I am feeling pretty good about having the pills and not taking them to feel something I normally take 10 to 12 a day but I am only taking 4 a day right now!! Talking about it sure seems to help!
Thank u so much I just took a bath and seriously my heart is beating so fast and I'm so weak and sick :'(
Withdrawals from ANY opiate are narly. and you leaving home to detox was a smart move because otherwise like you said you would have givin up.
its been a good 7-8 years since i dealt with perks and vikes but they were thee first things i got hooked on between my husband and i we had 2 perscribtion with 180 pills of each one at age fkn 19 tht lead to bigger things shootn herion morphine n all of that any opiate i could get id take do snort smoke anything but if i remember right i wanna say your body withdrawals shouldnt last more then a week maybe 2tops just due to the amount of years you used. the first week poss week and a half being the most crutial. your on day 2 you can do this its been done by many people with and without detoxification. however i will say if you do choose to go the detoxification route i cant stree to you how important it is to stear away from methadone at any cost!!!!
look up the thomas recipe its a recipe that was made from another assict/dependant going through withdrawal that is now said to be by many others the recipe to go by to help. i personally havent tryed it but others swear by it.
i recommend you go get urself those vitamens i recommened and if you need two and just can not bear another moment go to the E.r.
i went last night and was perscribed clondine and ativan for sleeping and to help rest and after taking both together last night i passed out. and the clondeen seems to be subsiding the aches im feeling
hot tub soaks as hard as it is to get the energy 2 pur epsom salt in and get in tub turn water as hot as u can bear and just soak fall asleep if u can i really wish you the best of luck and as much as i know it dont help with you pains i can relate to you and am going threw the same things as you and many others are as well. if u have any questions feel free to ask and im here to help support you as much as i can with going threw the same thing. may god havemercy on us both and give us some strengeth and mercy through this rough time.

I told myself I should just stayed home and went to a detox center so I wouldn't have to be miserable but I was stupid and chose just to leave town :(
Three years and percocet vicodin and roughly 30-60 mg a day.. Right now would be when I would give in because I feel l absolutely effin terrible but I have no other choice because I'm n a different city ! And as soon as I get thru this I won't turn back again...
