I really did it this time and im scared as HELL

Some of you helped me some years back and now I've really did a number to myself. Now it's not lortab/soma combo. Now it's this damn oxycodone 15mgX6 but I'm sick as all **** tapering from 120and135mg throughtout the day. I'm old skool 50 yr's old now that always kicked the hard way c/t. My question is this....Will the Thomas Recipe work at this high of dose without dyeing? I just suck at a slow taper, I was sent home today by the boss cause I was in such bad shape. What's the cut off point, when do you just die? I'm not a young man anymore.

so I go to see my pain management doc this am to get some (30) soma for my night kicks, when used correctly there wonderful. He is beside himself that I did what I did, says he never seen anyone c/t off Oxy like that before and even though he could not condone it, it seemed like I been there done that, knowing all about blood presure checking and the use of L-tyrosine and minerals and such, that he just felt his hand forced to give me the clonodine and valium i requested. Amazed! he was for sure, says I'm the toughest SOB he's ever encountered (not sure that's a compliment or not) Anyway I had him hit my *** w some B12 and give up a few soma for bedtime and agreed to depart friends.

Then I go to the dentist at 1:00 (a bridge broke last night, needed it fixed) It's not a 20 min ordeal, I'm in his chair for 2 hrs...drilling, cutting, grinding the whole 9 yards. Jesus that **** hurts. Were all done and he says let me write you a script....NO NO NO! I say I'm good, I just spent 8 days getting off Oxy, trust me I tell him, this pain doesn't hold a candle to the pain I just went through, I'm good really! My wife has some Advil at home I'll be fine. Doc Jones pats me on the back and says "Your an interesting man John, I like you, have a great Thanksgiving" That really made me feel good him saying that.

eyeofhorus2010 "knees in the breeze" you damn right! I am so free when I ride and riding clean is even more FREE. It's fallen into place

Like they say " Keep your knees in the breeze." Everything else will fall into place. Glad you're doing well.

I'm alive! I woke up feeling pretty damn good, I can't believe it. Really thought I'd die on this one. I have a hell of a resolve with my old recovery material lately. Remember when a page you read totally hit a certain spot then next time you read it it hit another spot. Well..through a lot of laughter and tears, new spots never touched before are being touched. Amazing! I haven't had a pill in 7 days...Jesus, the hell it takes before you finally just drop to your knees and pray for the light to freedom.
Thankyou EVERYBODY. You guys (and girls) are part of Gods plan...on a damn computer screen! Can you believe that?
