What most vicodin lovers do not realize is that the physical part that lasts about 4 days is NOTHING compared to the journey ahead... the emotional and mental part is by far the hardest part. There has been MANY times where I quit and at day 10, I was like "YES, i feel perfect.. I'm off of vicodin" then day 15 rolls around and I start feeling bored and like i "Need" something so I start thinking bout vicodin again and it's only been day 15.. I just take ONE and boom!! it's on! I go thru it again.. I'm telling you, just be strong and have a goal to get to month 2, that way you won't crave it as much at month 2.
