tappering Perocet/oxys

Hello there. I have been doing these pills for too long and its cost me too much money and pain via withdrawl. Now luckly I am not at any rock bottom and don't plan on ever getting there.

I have been taking these pills for the last several months every other couple days and everyday for the last month now. Recently gotten up to 30mg perocet a day. My buddy does atleast 4-5 of these 30mgs a day and ive read about people who are much worse off.

So i was wondering how bad am I? Is this going to be horrible for me to quit with withdrawl? I wanna start tappering off so what would be a good plan? Maybe like 5mgs less per day? Or am I still at a point where i can/should quit cold turkey and im just making a big deal of nothing?

Def just quit cold turkey... if i wouldve been able to see wat was happening at only 30mgs a day i wouldve just thrown then sh**s away n never looked back... lol....if u have pain issues u can take tylenol motrin aleve they really help... u might feel sluggish but it wont be as bad as havin a bad case of the flu... hope verything works out for you.. best to get ur hubby to jump on board also and get sum after care as well.. that way u dont fall back into it watchin him take them... or u eatin them or takin them in other ways? cuz ull have to stop the behaviors that come along wit the addiction as well....

Yes welcome. I would stop now too.  Keep reading posts you will see you are not making a big deal out of nothing.  Take otc meds if you are in pain it helps . I forgot in the beginning to take something for pain I was so focused on not taking a pill.

If you are taking 30mgs a day you would be fine cting you will have 3or4 days that are not fun by the 5th things should start looking  up .I would just go ahead and jump you are catching it early and that is good before it takes on a life of its own .There are some supplements listed in the "health pages" right hand column .One is the Tomas recipe and the other is the amino acid protocol .They both will help you.also s
tart looking into some recovery care because from this point on if you relapse its only going to get worse the way to prevent that is recovery care aa/na is a good place to start .
