Guys I jumped early.

I am 30 minutes short of 24 hours. I can't believe it. Husband is hovering (nicely) so I can't be online too much. He thinks I have the flu.  Please pray for me guys, need it.

Just checking in guys.  I'm still hanging in there. Craved a lot yesterday it seemed but it was more from habits I used to love. Loved a pill with my morning coffee so now that my tummy can take coffee again my brain is looking for a pill. Also holiday stress of course had my brain wanting a quick happy pill. I didn't!! I actually got out yesterday and took my daughter (home from college break) for us a pedicure. Was nice. Still having anxiety and mood swings.

I almost messed up today.  Just about of almost sheer habit I opened my bag and there was an old odd bottle in there and I opened it up and of course there was a pill. I had it in my mouth instantly. Then thought what the hell and I literally spit it out and starting spitting anything that may have melted. I have a long way to go to get rid of my drug brain, lord help me

Yes that is true.  i came off a large amount and my withdrawals were rough but i learned to live with them knowing they will go away eventually.  for me the stomach issues were the worst.  RLS was bad too , but long hot baths took care of that at night.  You def need family support during this time.  make sure your significant other knows whats going on.  Best of luck to you and hang in there things will get better.  stay close to this forum ppl here know what they are talking about and will help you A LOT.

Oxy- is that my W/D seem a little less than what others describe? My long term dose was lower? Don't get me wrong it's been HARD and I have moments (several today) I wanted to give in to just one. But my physical symptoms weren't as bad as I thought in my mind before

Appetite is non existent
Have lost about 5lbs.  I have episodes of 30 minutes of feeling fine then crash, want to cry, want to lay down. But I can't, I'm at work today. So hard to work through this.
