Hi,  I have been addicted to painkillers for about 15 years on and off. I really need to get off them now and as soon as possible.  Any suggestions about how to do this as fast as possible. Does any body know for example if drinking lots of water would help.?
Also any other tips...please and how quickly does ones body detox?

Well obviously the quickest way is to quit cold turkey. You will have a week from you know where and the next week you feel like you coming out of a huge fog. You will not feel great but there will be hope because it will begin to feel better. This assumes you are taking the usual types of opiates. If you are on Fentanyl or methadone it is a much longer ordeal.

I don't know how quickly it detoxes but on the right of your screen there are health pages with the Thomas Recipe and Amino Acid protocols. Also, to give you more info people will need to know what you are on and how much per day.  Welcome to the forum you have come to a great place! JoAnn
