Feeling Needy

[pasquisha]

I've been weaning since Saturday. So this is day 6. Felt anxious,  had cold sweats, shaky, insomnia... The worst of it was the first 3 days. It has now been 30 hours since I have taken anything,  and that was just a half. I was feeling great yesterday but woke up in middle of the night feeling restless. I just want to be done with this. I want to not feel wd symptoms. I want to not crave the meds. Ugh.... When will this end? How can I sanely get through the thick of it?

Would love some ongoing support....feeling very needy right now and like nobody gets it. :(

I to went ct from Norco and yes the 1st week or two was not the easiest but can be done. You need to look up the thomas recipe it can make things alittle bit easier. Good luck!!! :-) :-) :-)

Went for a walk with the kids, read books with them, watched movies....windows are open cuz the weather is beautiful.... feeling a little less anxious.

I think I can I think I can..... ;)

everyone knows you can...
try writing a kids book... brainstorm some ideas that make them smile... then find ways to write a few lines that will catch their attention...
i wrote a book called "the runaway teapot"... it kept my mind rolling for hours...

Hang in there. You are doing great. You have given me the courage to go down the same road as you tomorrow. I am totally addicted to codeine. I am starting on day 1 in the morning so we can go down this road together. I know I need suppose badly

You've already gotten some terrific advice so I can't really add anything except to say you CAN and will do it.  It isn't easy...but nothing good in life ever is.  If you have a regular doc you might want to call and see if you can get a scrip for clonidine...it helps with a lot withdrawal symptoms including craving :-)
