I am now almost 1 month clean!! Yay!! However I do have a question. My ex fiance was taking vicodin 10/325 for 2 and a half weeks and now understands why it was so easy for me to become addicted. He took his last pill yesterday afternoon and had night sweats and a severe headache this morning when he called me. I told him I didn't think he would be suffering withdrawals but what do you think? Our area has been having a cold/ flu going around but I just don't know. Is it possible he is having withdrawals after only 2 weeks of use?

I wld think just 2 or 3 days max of feeling a little poopy. I remember years ago when I ruptured a disk I was on vic 10mils for 2wks and I was just a little blue and tired and irritable for a cpl of days after my prescription was out. Two weeks should not be enough time for him to build his whole world around pills so the mental aspect of wanting them and buying them and wanting to be high shouldn't be present. Best of luck to your man and a big CONGRATS to you!!!!!

How long do you think they will last? I know mine lasted a week but his shouldn't be as severe right?

when did your weekend binges turn into daily use? i used to recreationally  mess around with pills and i would do a bunch on the weekends and nothing during the week. i always wondered if/when i would cross the line. i never went to far, well, not far enough to have to go to rehab or lose my job.
