Im on day 9, still a lil rough but im not using any meds!!

this is really amazing for me as its been awhile sense i went w/o pills, The depression is killing me now, is it PAWS? not sure but im not having anymore physical symptoms, I never want to go through that again!! Absolutely Horrid.. Anyways yes day 9! I cant believe my own strength..    P.S The Hot baths/Jacuzzi help tremendously!  Time to make money and actually HAVE something to show for it!!  Let me say this, If i yes myself can get through this from Oxy contin withdrawal and 9 whole days so far, you damn sure can do this, I never knew i was this strong..  waiting for my energy to come back... Live on!  9 days CLEAN  ;D

I totally understood what you were "sharing",...and "how" you intended it.  But like I said on your thread yesterday....you have tried Tramadol, Kratom, Weed, and Lyrica to avoid feeling w/drawals.  That mentality is dangerous for us addicts....I'm SO glad you are off everything now and not toying with your opiate receptors for the past couple of days.  Once you have more than 48 hrs off any drugs that affect your central nervous system and opiate receptors...the clarity and healing will progress quickly.

It's VERY admirable that you have made it 9 days....now it's time to begin thinking about finding someone to talk to about the losses of your parents and all the feelings you attempted to mask with opiates.  I hope you will follow thru and form some aftercare plans.  Using was just a symptom for  most of us.  Healing body, mind AND spirit will be the ticket to STAYING clean.

Thanks, I am NOT a FAN of KRATOM, But it may have saved my life, I do not know much about Kratom, I think its aweful and should be banned along with bath salts and synthetic mary jane, I was symply answering the mans question on how I got through this, I did some research on kratom and i do not think it is good, I ALMOST started to crave it but stopped.. Im on day 9 of not even taking a ******* aspirin,  I was on opiates for 5 years and i plan to keep clean of that poision.. FYI  Im not on ANYTHING, Not even a joint!   DONT USE KRATOM, ITS REALLY UNKNOWN OF THE AFFECTS.

Hi Guy. I have to agree with the above. BUT you did what you did and it is over. Just be careful not to get on the horse with out a saddle. The physically part might feel OK But the Brain Chems, Transmitters and Receptors etc., etc.. have to balance back..This is part of the process and it does take time after the removal of these stims..It looks like you are young and healthy and that you could bounce back quicker then others..The detox part is the easy part (hard) but the work begins trying to stay clean..You should reach out for SUPPORT in all areas of your life. As far as PAWS it is overrated. You are still in the detox state. BUT I do admire your Positive Thinking it well help you alot.
We have just seen so many come on here Hooked on Kratom..Most of us  do not care for the merry-go-around using one drug to another to get off your DOC..BUT it is your Recovery and Yours only. WE all care on here so please keep doing whatever you are doing and keep trucking along. Just give this Time & with Time comes Patience.
Bless

Clean, our goal here is to be free of ALL drugs. I'm glad it worked for you but have you had any WD after quitting the Kratom? It might be worse. Some of use might not be able to use just a little for a short time and get in more trouble. We would like to help you get off everything too. It can be done

Please stop recommending that people use Kratom. It is illegal and it is VERY addictive.

sure, i have my own place and i dont have help except fot the beautiful people here, I used Kratom, Its a leaf plant that grows in south east aisa, I dont recommend more then 5 days on it because it can be addictive but it does help, also Imodium, Jacuzzi, trying to stay buzy, most important i escaped most withdrawls like sweating,diarrhea, ect.. i felt like crap for a few days but it does get better.. I recommend tapering your does, with help ALOT.. Good luck on your endeavors!!  please only use kratom at your own risk as it it fairly new and make sure to do research!   Disclaimer-I'm not a doctor, This is just my experence.. But yes, Kratom got me off opiates.. I know this becuase ive tryed before to come off opiates and it is Not easy.

Get some sam-E. wish I had after the first 2 weeks. I was ready to give up from the mental part. Don't have to tell you to stay busy. The sam-E helps the mental part, lifts your mood. Your doing great just hang in there and think of what you can do with the money you save.

IB's right.. it's not PAWS.  That might be one of the most misunderstood syndromes on this forum, but again, it's not PAWS.  How you're feeling now is part of the withdrawal process and nothing more.

Congrats on the 9 days!

Day 9 is NOT PAWS honey. You are still in the physical withdrawal stage. Hang in there. It will be over soon.

Good job!   I say the same,  if I can live through this anyone can.   Maybe God planned it this way because I NEVER want to feel that bad again.   I'm on day 15 and just now physically feeling better.  It seems lime a long time but time does go by.  Keep it up,  you are so young and deserve a good life.
