Day 1

I started taking hydro after I had my child on april 16th and today is my 1st day without them i started taking them becuase of my back and well loved the high so continued to take them.  it has been about 2 and 1/2 month of taking them today i have no energy and am kind of feeling the hot sweats is this the worst of it becuase I have not been taking them very long also how long does the depression last I have not felt that yet but am sure I will.  I know I did not take them long but I did take a lot of the 10/325 about 8-10 a day I just want to stop this now before it gets out of hand I am hiding it from my husband and have a new baby I am scared about how I am going to take care of my baby during thid period I already dont have the energy to do anything and its only been a day.

if you trust him then tell him. write it in a letter what's going on tell him excattly what you told us! your scred this is goin to get out of control, you know this is a weakness. you need some help getting off of these from your delivery. the addicit mind tells you your alone , you are very very strong to post this in such a short time of using them. all you can be is honest to yourself, if you can't be honest with yourself your only fooling yourself. when someone says they are scared to tell there partner it worries me. because the first thing that goes through my mind is they are scared of the worst they fear sowething bad may happen, when in fact it doesn't. dot let fear rule over you! your strong to tell us and YOURSELF you are seeing a problem. most of use hide in it and fear it for years. tell your husband about what your seeing in yourself. tell him your are heading down a road you very much don't want to go! he will understand catching it now is better then 4 yets later and it blows out of control. these pain pills are sneaky, they take your mind and body. I'm not tring to say you should diffinately tell your hubby, what I'm saying is no one can do this alone. when we are in trouble we seek out help or try to in different ways. just be glad you caught this so fast!! but to answer your request wd's can last 4-5 days, you can expect to have a lack of engery, sleeplessness, nausea, runs, aches and pains sometimes down to the bone, esp. when you try to rest. uncomfortable feeling durin the day headaches, overall flu symptoms runny nose watery eyes lack of appatite , being that you only been taking them for a few months it may pass quickly , but you will be tempted alot which is why you should tell your husband. support should never be ignored or pushed aside. but rather embrassed.

God bless and good luck.

Hi~  I would,also,advise telling your husband. Get rid of any pills in the house. Try to set
up some support to help with the baby.  It may not be too bad but you just won't feel well.
You'll need some things:
Immodium
Hylands Restful Legs
vitamins   B6 B12 C mag/cal potassium
gatorade
juices
soups
Epsom salts to pour in hot bath

Get the laundry done
Clean sheets on your bed
Lots of towels

Post with any questions~
