Hey Tooter, congrats girl!  Hope the pain mngmnt is getting better.
Sorry you're feeling this anger thing.  I agree with msd, I think it may be a PAWS thing.  60 days I think is when it hit me hard. (Got physical). But it has got progressively better since.  So have faith.  Wish you didn't have to take stuff to go to sleep.
Hugs

I've come off hydros also a few years back and it's different but it still *****!  Learning to be sober again and be interested in things is a challenge for both.  I am getting a little better every day and I can see the light!

Congrats again girl & keep it up!

no matter how bad today is, it WILL get better. I've read where tramadol is harder than hydrocodone to get off of. Be proud of yourself and keep trucking. God Bless

Congrats!  I am on day 12 from tramadol and I'm starting to feel a lot better.  The brain fog is slowly lifting and I know when I'm at 2 months I'll feel great!  It helps me so much to see others that have been through the same crap who are on the other side!

Congratulations on 2 months clean tooter!!! I am so proud of you!
You got this one!! I would definitely ask the Dr. about the Amitryiptiline. Is that for pain?  I take Nortriptiline, don't really know if it works or not because I take it at bedtime. Why do they prescribe all my meds at night, when you need them during the day? Who knows...
Anyway, You go girl!!!

Yea, ampitripilin can cause that. But I find I have nightmares the first few months after detox...

I think it has to do with the amitriptyline. I was having nightmares last night. I think I'm going to stop taking it tonight and see how I feel. I read where it has a long life though, so the sooner I get off of it the better
