Day 14 clean, I keep posting this but it doesn't work x3. No more hydrocodien

To say 14 days almost is unreal I'm happy to say it!!!! The withdrawals are 7 out of 10 completly gone, the insomnia is better but not cured as well as the diarrhea. If I don't keep myself busy I just think about my withdrawals so I get up even if it's just to play with my dog for 5 hours straight lol. I found myself laughing at tv shows that I've seen before that I didn't find that funny, so my sense of humor is coming back I feel like. No more sneezing and tear eyes and (RLS is 85% gone usually only bother me a tad when I get up in the morning. Does it not seem like the days last so much longer? I feel like today has been like 3 days, time goes by slower I listen to music more, worked out and played basketball at the park a couple times a gain my appetite back not all the way but enough to keep me feeling like I'm just stuffed all day long. For example I had a peice of salmon with black beans and fries today then tuna with crackers after that (my first real meal in 2 weeks) I was starving but afterwards I felt so huge like I gained 6 pounds ha my stomach is disgusting it slowly. So atleast I know I can eat a good normal meal without throwing up or constantly be ******** (pardon my french)!!! I've even got a schedule and address to a (NA) narcotics annoymos class and all it's info. I got the info late last night swore I go tonight but it doesn't start till 8pm which where I am its 8:30 now but I've been up since 3am. It might take some nerves to walk inn and tell the (NA) people but I know I should. What else can I ramble on about hmmmmm did anyone else just go 10 days barely eating anything when they first started withdrawals? I just ate bananas or grapes or apples or chicken broth I went days without eating and days where I forced myself but today I felt like a fat kid at a cake eating contest for example ( lard *** from the 80's film "stand by me" with river Phoenix) lol. Yes the example is neccasary. Anyways so eating a big meal today has left me bloated all day just so full I've never been so full still am. I guess everything seems like its in (HD) now like being outside trees and grass are greener sky is blue'r (<idk if that's how you spell bluer). Anyways I read up on more scientific based websites about hydrocodien withdrawals. It said a hard user peaks at 24-72 hours which I found to be crap cause my peak was 12- 160 hours. Then it discused (PAWS) how this comes after withdrawals and really depends on the person but could last up to a month or two. Though it may only pop up a day or two out of a month. Another site said (PAWS) could last up to 2 years and that you could be feeling fine and then it could pop up for a day or two then go away again. I'm wondering if that's true? Anyways just venting here and rambling on long comment so if you stuck through it all congrats on that cause I wouldn't read something this long unless it was a check. Talk to y'all soon!!

No, no, i hear ya! 14 days is great and personally, i agree the days go by much slower, but that could be b/c we were on the hydro fast train! It took my 30 days to have the w/d to a bearable level and i lost like 7-10 lbs b/c i had NO APPETITE AT ALL!!! And everything i did eat, went right through me. It will come back to normal as i've gained about 10 lbs since i started this journey in january.
Honestly, i think it sounds like your doing very well with this. At 2 weeks, i was still sick as ****!
Check out that N/A mtg tonight as i think you will be pleasantly suprised, i was. Even if its just to listen...
