I found this sight researching how to detox from Vicodin.   I'm impressed!  I take Vicodin every day and really want to stop.  I'm embarrassed to admit that it has a hold on me as I have convinced myself that I can stop any time and that I'm in control of my 'recreational' drug use.  When I think about getting through work tomorrow without it or not using it to help me 'stuff' my issues I feel a paralyzing fear and don't know if I even can or want to do it.  I'm getting ready to start my day and I'm pretty sure than it won't be long before I convince myself that I can have 'just one' to take the edge off.... Reading all of your posts have helped me realize I am not alone.  None of my friends or family know about this.  Thanks!

Ty, please quit now while you can. It won't be long before there won't be a high and you have to take more and more to just to feel normal. It's a hell of a merry go round . Read all the post others have made and see the hell they are going through. It's not a pretty picture. I know I've been there. God Bless you
