Hydro Addicted, C/T day 3!!!!

Well, here I site, starting Day 4. For those who do not know me. I too have a horrible addiction to Pain Meds, Hydrocodone 10mg x 20 per day.

Just entered Day 4 (8am) Not sure how I feel today just yet. I know I feel crappy, but not sure what will be today! I have been drinking like crazy....water, power-aides etc. Also using 1-2 Immodium tabs to stop the runs, even though they never got here - I made sure of that! My son is in town for a week and I just hope I can stay up beat enough to make his trip..a good one. He is 17, but he, like everyone think I just don't feel good. Not right, but thats the way I have to play this out. Some moments I feel like a super-hero kicking this addiction, other minutes/seconds I feel like a **** balloon that just got popped. I am hoping to whatever god there is that my prayers and wanting out of this Hell is answered, knowing it's up to me. God please give me the strength to continue a sober life-style away from this devils pill.

I do find myself listening to TONS of music now, I did before but never like this, ever! It helps a bit too I have to say. I dont know if its the passing of time or what - BUT who cares right. I am hoping I make it all the way through day 4. Have to work in 113+ heat tomorrow and am not lookin forward to it in this condition AT ALL. Will day 4 be better? I have never made it past 3 (Bad)

Anyone else in my quit time-frame or others who are clean and been there could use some advise, wisdom and or whatever. Just feelin down this morning and dont know what to do with myself (son sleeps till noon, thank god - lol)

Help Needed entering day 4 (Entering Day 4)

God help us and our prayers to stay clean and live happy lifestyles

Hey man..morning...can't say good morning...lol...oh **** maybe I can still laugh.....

DAY 4 WOW!!! GOOD FOR YOU!!!!

Day 3 starting for me today....feeling like an emotional roller coaster and bag of poop.

From what I have read and have been told that opiates paralize (spelling??? sorry) the bowels. Thats why we get constipated on them. Maybe unsure.....but maybe it does the same to the bladder.  And since we are not paralizing our bodies organs with polution of these opiates anymore they are coming back around and working overtime to clean themselves out.

Wrap your legs doll with the tensor bandages they work really good for me.  They still ache but not as bad without them on.  I also find they aren't as jumpy either with the muscle bandaged.

Good luck your in my prayers....you can do this...I am right behind you on the feeling like **** wagon but they wagon of feeling great is just up ahead and thats were we heading for...

hugs

Oh, and what is with the urination constantly! I remember EVER having to urinate so darn much. I did drink lots of water then too so Im confused as to why - any idea's? Oh and my body ran 10 miles last night and i never even got off my bed. Athletes could only wish for that, while I pray to go away. Anyone????????
