Oxycontin - 2nd day clean
My boyfriend hung himself about 2 months ago... ever since then I have been taking oxycontin to forget about the pain. I have been taking an upwards of 50 to 60 mg a day to function. Without it I feel like I am going to die. I have a huge history of addiction, starting with meth, vicodin, percocet and now oxy. I haven't had any in 2 days and I have muscle aches ALL over my body, I am tired and restless at the same time, I can't think straight, and I have missed my period (was due yesterday), depression.. . Are ALL of these withdrawal symptoms? If so, WHEN will they go away???
Thats the thing, I thought I had come to terms with my loss. I was an addict before, during and after everything happened. It just got way worse after he died.
I was so sure I was over it, that I got back together with my ex (the father of my daughter) to get our family back together, but I made that decision on oxy. Now I don't know if thats what I want anymore. I feel like I have messed up my brain so much I am going crazy.

Mental problems are the root of most addiction...most addicts treat the symptom (drugs), and not the disease. You need to come to terms with the terrible loss, get at peace with yourself, pick youself up off the floor and be strong for your daughter.
Please, please hun, do it......and stick around here. there are some wonderful people here who will hold your hand and have never even met you. I promise good things. Again, I am so sorry for your loss.
Thank you also. I guess that is why I joined this forum, to find the support I need to get through my addiction and physical problems. Also my mental problems... I guess.
Thank you. Its only day 2 and I feel the pain rising up again, as if he just died yesterday. I think I may just start going back to counseling... :(
Go back to counselling...It will do you a world of good. The drug habit isn't that big yet so you should feel better physically pretty quick.
You need some help with your head to get you through this, as well as plenty of good....clean friends.
Good Luck
