Hydrocodone! Will I experience withdrawals??

Was looking for some insight. I have been taking hydrocodone 10/325 for the last 2 1/2 - 3 months, 2-3 pills a day. I am wanting to stop all together but an concerned with the withdrawals I may have. Does anyone have an experiecne where they experienced withdrawals from taking vicodin/hydrocodone for 3 months? Or have I not been taking it long enough? Any comments will be very helpful! Thanks!!

Good luck and congrats on making the decision to quit without going too long. I am in the same situation except I am taking 5-10 Lortabs a day and I know that I will have to quit when I have a few days to use "The Thomas Recipe" that is mentioned so often.....

I think you have been taking it long enough to experience withdrawal but the worry about the withdrawal may prove worse than the actual withdrawal. I would taper down if possible, just do not drag it out too long... good luck

You have been taking it long enough to have WDs.  The big question is how bad???  Shouldn't last too long.  You were on a low dose for a short time.  Take lots of hot baths and stay hydrated.  Sleep and energy will be your worst issues I would suspect.  Oh....and diarrhea.  Everyone has that!!!!!
