going ct from 120mg of oxys this weekend

[chubbers]

so i finally decided after trying to taper for months that im just going to go ct this weekend i cant take it anymore. i am sooo scared i  think maybe i am making i t out to be worse than it will be, but i have a very low tolerance for pain or anything like that.  so im going to stock up on bananas, and try to find some vitamins and just sort of wait it out. i have tried ct a year ago and i only lasted a day but i dont think i wanted to quit as much as i do now. so wish me luck and any more adivce would be much appreciated. thanks!

Wow...he must be great...you need to focus on getting well right now and stay on this forum and post post post..good he is there to support you...you will be fine...I bet you feel much better by day 4 and even better on day 5...just get in your jammies and chill..treat yourself to hot baths, get him to give you massages, go for walks when you can together or do some light exercise indoors from the fitness channel...nap when you feel like napping...you will be fine...so the big day is Saturday?  that is your first quit day?

Would you do anything for this new guy?

[chubbers]

when i said my husband is supportive i meant to say , the new guy i met, i feel stupid bc i dont want people to think im a bad person for leaving my husband, but i have mentioned a while ago i was going to leave my husband to be with this new guy bc of many reasons but this guy has been so supportive and i really want to be with im but its so hard when im taking pills, so i have to do this and move on with my life

[chubbers]

thanks, it means a lot having people to be pulling for me, i will not let u guys down! i intend on being clean for easter next week

[duckandcover]

We havn't "talked" but I've folloed you posts for a while now.  Just wanted to say that I'll be pulling for you.  YOU CAN DO IT!!!

Take a look at the Thomas Recipe and stock up on everything you can in it.  It really helps!!!

Oh and don't forget that this place never closes so when you're down and need a pep talk or just want to "let it out"  you can ALWAYS come here for an encouraging word or advice.  This place is a huge reason I'm still clean.  

[chubbers]

DONT FORGET THE IMMODIUM...IT REALLY SAVED ME>>>>EXCEDRIN MIGRAINE STOPPED THE HEADACHE WHEN NOTHING ELSE WOULD.  SEE YOU GET PREPARED AND YOU GET IT DONE!!!!!

[Chi_Chi_Lover]

YES!!!  You can do this just get your mind set and do it. I know you have a low tolerance to pain...we all did when we were on the drugs but you'll see you can get through this.

You are a woman and we are strong!!! We can handle some pain because there is a reward at the end. Now dig down deep in your heart and soul and let's do this. We are all here to support you.

Have you ever had the flu? Did you live through it? Were you glad it was over and felt relief after? That's all you have to think...I'm about to get the flu but in a week or so it will be behind me.

I would keep advil or tylenol on hand, if fever rises....have you looked up the thomas recipe?  I know you should read it thoroughly, about if you're on any other meds that could interfere with one another...  definately lean on us for support.  I would recommend alot of water and gatoraid!!!!!! Wool socks, my feet were popsicles.  YOU WILL BE OK.  Did you schedule any time off of work next week?

[cathy5841]

yeah, chubbers you can so do this.  make sure you stay close to the computer.  pick up some epsom salt for your hot baths.  it helps the muscles.  and a heating pad or electric blanket does wonders.  get you some movies or a good book.  you will do great.  p m me anytime you need to day or night i am on here every few minutes and i will get back to you.  i really think yu will be fine...the support of this forum will get you through the rough spots.
good luck girlie,
cathy
