COLE-TAPERING

You said to take off part of each pill? Can you exlain a lil more. I saved a post that said shaving off a little at a time. The goal for me is to quit however I cannot do a c/t..I am sorry but I cannot. For anyone who thinks if I really want to quit why bother with the taper or taking off parts of the pills. I simply cannot do C/T...and my Dr has advised me against doing it as well. Everyone is different, I wish I could just go C/T but that is not an option for me, I wish it were. I just cannot handle the w/d's.

Can you explain a bit more cole? Thanks.

Can they put in another pellet after the 30-60 day time frame.  That's fascinating.  They did something like that on house.   Put gal in coma and ran all her stuff through a machine.  
Who will be your caregiver.  And what emotional program will you choose to do to help you stay sober.  Well for that matter do you want to.  My dad when through so many things and just never could.  My mom told him to stay clean for 3 years and she'd let him come back he made it 2 years 9 months.  Then went back and died about 1 year later.

I don't understand Cole?? What your saying is if you get to stressed out it's okay to take that 80mg? Don't get me wrong I have fell many many times, but I never thought to myself, hey I'll save this for when I get pissed off!! Am I misunderstanding you? I don't want to offend you in anyway! But if your quitting, you shouldn't be thinking that way, you taper yourself down, and then when your done, your done.....I mean relapse is very possible but you need to think about everything in a more positive way!!!! We are here for you Cole (regardless if your mean sometimes LoL just kidding hope i made ya smile)
sincerely, strictly me

So start the tapering NOW!!! If you feel as though you can't do it on your own, or when you try you continue to fall, seek medical attention!!!! YOU CAN DO THIS COLE!!! Believe in yourself, believe in God...
