7 years later im ready !

My question is this . Its day two of Slowly coming off of Oxy and percocet  ! I dropped 12.5 the other day so that's one 10 Oxy and half a percocet . Today even though I had 2 10s my head feels buzzed out is this normal ? I am fed up with pain meds !

The only reason I am coming off it is that I hate the drug so much now I don't even care for it ! I was wondering even from coming off the drug slowly for a week will I experience withdraws no matter what ? Today Im dropping 10 mil again . Tomorrow even more .

The next step is getting off of ambient as Iv been on sleeping meds for 7 years as well ! I got rid of the ambien CR and got the instant kind so I can slowly tapper off this drug as well !! Wasted so much life on addiction !! Cant think today and .  who ever reads this will have a hard time . Sorry

I plan to be med free in 1 week

Hey there! Just wanted to send some encouragement your way.. I hope you are doing alright.  Sometimes the taper can draw Things out ( I ve read) and if you're already feeling awful maybe its time to face this thing head on and say enough is enough. Just a thought. You do what is right for you. But you could always take the power back, flush the pills you have and just move forward. Truthfully, you will have to eventually. I wish you the best and whatever you decide, I'm here to talk. Feel better my friend, and just remember, good days are right around the corner. Stay  positive!
