You know I dont think any of us think we are addicts when the Doc prescribes them for our pain for years and years. But as soon as you go through the with drawels you know you are- at least physically.
I am so glad I am getting this monkey off my back- my brain can already think clear again-- first time in a long time. I still have the "flu" but it will get better. I know as my nose runs and my bowels loosen up- my body is flushing that poisen out. Notice how nasty you smell. The liver is detoxing that crap out of you. Take more hot showers and baths to help and any exercise you can do will make you feel better and rush it out sooner.
But-- please do not try cold turkey. Talk to your Doc and have him help you wean off it. There can be serious side- effects if you don't. Especially if you have high blood pressure etc.

There are a bunch of things you can do- read the forums and advice. Hot baths with epson salts will help you with the muscle pains etc, Chocolate will help you a little, exercise will help. I take st. Johns wort ( if your not on an anti depressant- or not allergic to ragweed)
Here is a couple of articles that helped me a lot-- I am on day 4 without Morphine.
