I'm glad you are home and hope you are doing better. You shouldn't have any WDs after 6 months clean and taking the meds as prescribed. If you do I'm going to be even more afraid to ever take anything the rest of my life.

Hey you know that you should'nt go through withdrawl. You will be fine,you are way to smart to let yourself get to that point. Just be careful. Take care of yourself.--John

Glad to here you are doing a little better. And good job on the disiplin withe the meds. It takes a strong and smart person to be able to do that. At least in our world it does.
I have a question if you dont mind, about your past ultram abuse. You see, i am going throught the same thing with tramadol, I have only been using for about 3 months, but  my addiction escalated quickly. I am at about 24 pills a day. Right now, and this past past weekend I redused it to 4 pills. (ya, i know. WHAT A DROP)I feel real bad. You know with the WDs. I hate myself for doing this to myself, I hate that my family, and my boys had to see this. I hate thinking that the pills will make everything alll better. I hate, I hate, I hate and I wanna die...At least I want this side of me to die. But tell my how did u get started, and how did you end up quiting? How hard, how bad?

Dont be afried to rambel, reading is the only thing keeping me sane...

I don't blame you...you commented on my post about the fioricet, I was concerned that my flu-like symptoms were w/ds just from taking one the night before....I've been off percs for over 3 weeks....it's scary!  Good job taking them sparingly-that takes discipline!  I know I couldn't do that right now....almost 6 months is amazing!
