Just wanted to confirm that when i started on these pills they DID NOT come w a warnoingn my dr gave them to me l;ife tylenol adn NEVER once told me anything I never took them due to the high mostly just took more and more so i would not go through w/d i knew NOTHING bout these pills i was on them SO long it formed a dependancy so YES YES YES i FULLY blame the drs for this. On the flip side i now know i take them for other reasons so for getting back on them after 3 yrs clean that is MY fault but these drs have a HUGE part in this taking responsibility yes but when u r in pain and they give u these W OUT knowledge behind them that is THEIR fault i have a flad in my chart and my dr knows EVERYTHING what did he prescribe me for RLS VICODIN ummmm HELLO yes these drs ARE at fault
Hey good for you yoou are doing it. So proud of you. Yes all is normal that you are experiencing. Fluiids.hot baths or showerswere you able to gret the hylands restful legs or the potassium & magnesium supplements?
Yes using is just a symptoms of something much deeper pain.wounds.scars.emotions and pain that have been pushed deep down into your heart.soul and spirit. Counseling is so redcommended.the support groups will help. Try to get more around as much as you can you have to push yourself even if you don't feel like it.it helps a lot to get the endrophhins producinng again.
yes many many people live life on it terms without drugs and they are happy. There are things in life that are hard and sad and it all depends on how we deal with it. The LORD is a huge part of my husbands recovery and our familys healing. Pray and ask HIM to help you. To give you peace .joy.love. and to bbreak the chains of bondage and addiction.
You are on the rioad to recovery to jumped off the addiction insanity train headed for hell and have chosen the road to recovery and life.
Sens0ding hugs and prayers

HI your thinking is good especially for being in withdrawals you understand its not the pills there just a symptom of a much deeper issue it is the escape where after we need to figure out what where running from I have been seeing the same substance abuse consolor for 3 yrs where still digging into why I used it comes out in layers sometimes theres so many there you forgot the original reason you started in the first place for me a big part of it is im bipolar and have spent 1/2 my life self medicating the other part was 2 herniated disks in my back
that got me started on the pills......but once I felt the euphoria of the pills I was sunk it lead to a 16 1/2 yr addiction to narcotics one im glad is over you have all the right ideas your plan is solid now work it and you will be successful in getting yourself out of this mess we all want to see you make it keep posting for support where here to help good luck and God bless.......Gnarly....btw you might want to lightin up on the coffee and switch to gatoraid wile detoxing it gives the body what it needs

well lets say i have felt better that is so so for sure...my mind wont shut up..but thats ok i guess..comsidering what i have been doing to it..it kinda feels like everything in my mind has been shut off and things are trying to wake up that has not been awake for a long time..so it is adjusting to a whole new type of feeling where at one point there was not any at all..kinda like ur foot falling asleep for a long time and u try and wake it up..it hurts some and feels weird...ive been very very moody and tryingg my hardest not to take it out on anyone..i try and sleep as m uch as i can..pretty much ive been trying to listen to what my b ody is telling and and trying to fallow its cues the best that i can...its been only day 2 without anything at all...bbut for me im taking everything second by second..i try to write as much as i can in my daiiryi drink energy drinks or coffee to try and help give me a little boost when i need it..the thing that is killing me the most is my dang legs..it is awfull and my arms..they feel like they weigh a ton and a half..and just picking up and holding my baby girl feels like she weighs 50lbs...oh and i sweat alot i guess that is normal to and snezze,when people ask whats wrong that i dont want to know about this ii just tell them i got the summer flu..part of me just dont want to look bad in others eyes..see im still dealing with underlying issues..beside just getting physicaly clean...im looking into a na or something to help me deal with the my part..and owing up to it all..and then i need to talk to someone about the underlying issue of why i really did become this way..the bad thigns that have happend..i need to so i can try and stay this way for the rest of my life...i need to learn how to cope and live in the real world instead of the drug induced one..and let me tell u for me it is strange...i see people smiling out in public and happy and my mind complety goes to ok..so what are they on..i know itsbad... but this is a update thanks everyone
