i advise not to break the morphine pills in half--what kind of morphine are they? if they are time released (which many morphine preparations are), you cant break them- it could release all the medicne at once and cause respiratory failure and death

You are just going to have to go through the withdrawals. Once you are clean for awhile the thought of pills become less and less. You could taper down with the norcos since they are the weakest ones you have. Just drop your dose every 3 to 5 days. Break them in half so you are only taking 5mg instead of 10mg. You have to have a lot of willpower to taper because you have to stick to the taper plan. If tapering won't work, just go cold turkey. Either way you will feel some of the withdrawals. If tapering, they won't be as bad but it does kind of drag them out. Once you get some clean time you will see how you won't think about the pills as much and then one day not at all. Never let your guard down though. Just stay strong and let us know what your plan of attack is! Best of luck!

morphine is definitely an opiate...not a big DOC for many as the high is not as desirable for most as other narcs unless used IV//heroin is a street form of morphine...what can u do differently this time around so u can stay clean?  sounds like u want this badly..have u tried any type of aftercare?

Do not listen to anything else that whomever told you morphine wasnt an opiate might have to say.  Of course its an opiate.  Morpheus - God of Sleep - - - Morphine - makes you nod/sleep.................get the connection?

You were doing 15 percs/hydro's a day for 2 years..... and you quit 7 days ago (except for 120mg of morphine a day) but wonder why you have withdrawal symptoms?   I doubt that morphine is the answer for you.  I would suggest that you do an extensive read on medhelp's Health Pages and with key word searches via the sites search engine......  You need to learn a lot rather quickly here it seems....  There is a lot of knowledge in the Health Pages.......  But keep posting with questions and for information - - that might be faster for you...
