I need help

I am a 24 yr old female with a muscle condition called para-myatonia congetia and I am coming off of hydrocodone and ultram. Not by choice at this moment, but because I took them all in a short period. I do have the desire to get off of them but I think it's almost impossible with the withdrawl systoms haunting me. Suboxone is really exspensive and I almost feel like there is no hope. I want help and I want it now. I have been off of my meds for 30 hours now. I want this to be over and I cant go to rehab or detox becuz I have a small child to look after while my husband works. What are my options? I have been thru this before but I wasnt prescribed it then and I am now.

keep us posted. Please dont  let the wds stop you from quitting. I have two weeks and I know for sure I feel better today then had I not quit. Yea I may have pills today and just feel ok. Sounds like your in a tough spot. Ive been there. I do have to say I know nothing about ultram. 30 hours is quite along time and Ive found I felt the worst at about that time. What are you options? Theres really only two options right? Take the easy way out like your doing. Like I am trying to do. Just quit. Or take the hard way, keep using pills and living the life you have now. Take the easy way out. I quit 120-150mg roxis ct. I did take 5mg the first day. I dont count that day. I do have two weeks. If this 34 going on 35 year old addict can make it you can. Dont wait for tomorrow. Were not promised that.

Hi and welcome!!

Did you just stop the ultram?  How much did you take a day?  That can be dangerous to just stop......
