My god.

I am in a mess here. Started taking pain medication for legit pain. Now if I dont have them I cant think straight. My stomache hurts.. I wake up in a complete panic at the thought of getting through the day. Im a mother..and a disgrace. My father was an addict..clean for many years. He died of cancer a few months ago..i would do anything to have him here to help me as he would know exactly how I feel.Nobody knows of my troubles. I am suffering in silence..and bad. First day with no vicodin today. Im freezing and aching for my Dad even more..i was taking about 5  7.5.a day.

I don't see anything in your thread that would distinguish you from thousands of other people who have and will post here for help.
You can contact the monitors on the bottom of this page under contact us.
Tell them your concerns.

Just start a new question. Why worry about deleting? People read old threads. It will help a newbie or someone just reading. You cant delete. Its the way the forum is set up.

No hun it won't delete. Just start a new one. You can have multiple threads. Many people start new ones as time goes on with additional questions. Also sometimes when they get to long. Post a new question. I will look for it.
So glad you are feeling better physically. That's great. Proud of you.

However I have a question. If I would want to delete this post and start a new one how would I go about that? I have made a srong mental note of all the information here . I know I need some major help but feel I have the right to do it anonomously..know I spelled that wrong. I tried to inbox gnarly to ask but it wouldnt go through. I DEFINETLY want to start a new thread with maybe less bloody informstion. Thanks guys! I know I have a longjourney ahead and need this page.

How is the rls?   If you have been eating banans they are binding. Eat lots of friuts and veggies. Get a laxative/metamucil.  Exercise and drink lots of water. I hope and pray  you feel better soon.

Oh boy that's not good. How are you feeling now??
  Did you stop the immodium??
Pushing the fluids and exercising as lu said will defintely help.
I hope and pray things are moving along.

I would cut back on the Immodium for sure if you aren't going.  It's vital to clean out the poison in your system and would definitely give you a tummy ache.  Hydrate, Hydrate, Hydrate....And try to get some exercise to get things moving....Feel better and hang in you are doing great....Lu
