Wondering when it will hit

Hi!  I have been addicted to percocet/oxy/vicodin for a year now.  Itake them everyday.  It is time to quit.  I have been up to 280mg. a day.  Not everyday.  I do take atleast a 100mg. everyday.  yesterday I took 40mg. of oxy at 8a.m.  So far, I have not had any withdrawal symptons.  My question is shouldn't the withdrawals have started by now?

You should start feeling withdrawals at any moment, but are you tapering or stopping cold turkey because if you are tapering, your withdrawals will be less and may not come on as fast or as strong as if you are stopping cold turkey. Sorry, more info. would be helpful, but I am wishing you all the best.
