Day Four and Nervous

[attagirl1]

I'm on day four now.  Yesterday morning I was real nervous, but it went away and I felt great.  This morning same thing. Hoping it will fade too. Anybody have that?

[Zakk169]

Yes Mam, I am on day 3 and I am feeling ok, Iguess, but I am worried that day 4 and above will come on like a boot in da ***!!!!! Are you craving, I am! I am thinking if someone comes up with a perc, I will down it! By far, a perc is way less then my drug...(oxycontin 40mg 4 times a day!) but I think it will help with the nerves? Do you have a relaxer pill? I have Tamazapam and it helped me through last night!

I was taking hydrocodone 3-5 a day for pain.  When my pain stopped, I quit taking them and found out my body was addicted.  I'm really afraid to take even Tylenol pm at night.  I don't crave those pills as I consider them straight from hell, but I crave feeling better, and I know time is my best friend because I will never go through this again. I think I'm through the worst of it.  The anxiety isn't too strong. I can still function, but I don't like it.  I expected to wake up today well, and when I didn't I was kind of a downer.  But I plan on keeping busy today.  I have my two kids to take care of today, so time will pass fast hopefully.  Wish you the best.  If tomorrow isn't as good, don't get down.  I hear day 5 is something to look forward to.

Tylenol PM or melatonin may help you sleep if you need them. Feeling nervous or anxious is very common. Day 4 is great. Way to go! It will start getting better real soon.

Congrats on your day 4.  You will start feeling better soon.  I too was very nervous and anxious but it does get better.  I tried to get out and walk and took my vitamins.  Hang in there you are doing great.   stay strong              sara

It's really worth it and you'll be happy that you finally made it through the difficult withdrawal stage.

I'm grateful for my clean time and can't believe that I had allowed myself to become a slave to those stupid pills. You too can break free! Keep moving forward!

I decided to get out today, so I went to the gym, but my car was broken into and my purse was stolen.  Its been a nightmare of a day.  I spent all day dealing with credit cards and body shops.  Hasn't really helped with the nervousness.  Both my boys are scared to sleep in their bed.  I'm so tired.  I hope I can sleep tonight.  I hear day 5 though is alot better.  Day 3 and 4 not too bad like the first two days when I couldn't get off the couch.  Let me know tomorrow how day 6 is and good luck to you.

If it is any consolation,, I went back to work/stressful job both physically and mentally/ on day 5 and made it...was on 80 mg of hydro for 3 years...keep ur positive attitude up and stay busy....if u plan on feeling bad then u will..plan on feeling much better and u will

[avik7]

so im at the end of my day 5. i will tell u i dread the nights. but tonight im actually exhausted and cant wait to hit my pillow. i kept myself busy we had some friends over and my parents..we cooked dinner and hung out while everyone drank beer i drank gatorade! hehe! it helps tho! i will let u know how my day is tomorrow. i usually wake up with stomach aches. we will see. pepto, immodium, and tylenol have been my best friend! invest in it! keep your head up. im sorry to hear what you went through, you will get thru this!

[attagirl1]

I dread the nights too.  I just got through night 5 without anything.  too scared to take even tylenol since there was tylenol in hydorcodone.  I wake up every am with nausea and jitters.  thought today would be different but its not.  Very difficult to eat.  I'm glad to know you wake up with stomach problems too.  I just hope it eventually goes away.
