Last 10/325 mg 2 hours ago

Hi,

I just took my last pill this morning at 8:30am.  My horror story started 16 months ago when i blew out my back.  I was prescribed hydro 10/325 every 6 hours as needed for back and leg pain.  6 months later the hydro stopped working and i was prescribed oxy 10/325 every six hours.  To make a long story short i reached 10-12 pills a day for the past 12 months.  I know I have a problem and a few months ago i tried to stop but i could not make it past day 2.  I am scared and feel lonely even though i am part of a family of 5.  I dont know what to do for I have run out of pills and feel like i will never make it thru the withdrawal process.  Can somebody please help me and give me an idea of what i can expect the next 5 days???  just a small timeline of when things will get better will help.  Does the Thomas recipe work??  please any help will be appreciated.  I have a family and I am scared to death.  PLEASE

Yahooo for YOU! 3 days down and 3 days closer to that greener grass..haha

Yep, it is strange how it moves like a turtle at first and then bang, it runs like a cat! You are right at the top of it and just swinging back & forth, hang tight the physical should be over soon. Then comes the Mental, but it does not hurt or uncomfortable, it is just hard to adjust too. This is the part that takes time to balance back, as your brain chems have to adjust back from the removal of these pills or any substance.

Good Job..We are Cheering for you all the way!!

PS. We play a football pool over in the Social Forum on here. We are already into week 6. Just pick your teams that you think are going to win each week. Take Mons game and add the 2 together for your points. We do the points in case there is a tie. No Money, just for fun..Check it out and come on in..We need more players.
Bless

That's a great thing. I think keeping yourself busy has helped you a lot. Sitting around makes it worse for the mind. Have fun!
