Great job on 6 days!!! Usually WD last for about 5-7 days depending upon your body's metabolism. Were you completely off xanax and just taking hydrocodone? Try to relax and do some to get your mind off it. Maybe take a walk, yoga, meditate, something to relax you. You should be soon over the worst of WD from hydrocodone. I am not sure of your past, but seeing a doctor or therapist to help with anxiety may help. Again, 6 days!! that is awesome!!!

I am sorry but I do not remember you. Of course that means nothing, people come and go here like the wind.

In any case, anxiety is non uncommon. While we are using our brain chemistry becomes altered and when we stop we can experience many different symptoms.

I would be concerned about your heart pounding as that is not normal and I think you should get to your doctor ASAP for a good check-up.

Let us know how you make out.
