Thomas's DeTox Reciepe

Would anyone know where I can find his formula. Also, thanks for the replies. For the last two full weeks I have reduced the "doses" I take per day. Going from at least 5 and usually 7-8 per day, I am now just "needing" to have some in the morning, afternoon and before bed. I also have reduced the amount per dose by a few pills. I have been reading alot of info on some Narcotics Detoxification Under Anesthesia clinic. Seems to me in a nut shell, they put you under for a few hours, and prescribe a drug such as Naltrexone for a week or two and thats it? Well, thanks for listening. P.S. Wiz, thanks for the support...Peace Out...Doc

Hey Kristen!

Today is my 5th day of WD from Percocet, Lortab and Soma. Last night was about the WORST night of WD in my life! I'd taken 2 Trazadone in the course of the day, but they didn't do a damn thing besides make me really tired/disoriented, but of course my muscular aches, heart-pounding and especially those g-d HEADACHES prevented me from getting any form of sleep, these headaches have been hitting me hard since Saturday, getting progressively worse.

So last night at about 10:00, when I couldn't stand it any longer, I took a Valium (which I'd been quite determined NOT to take) and slept for almost 10 hours. Today, the heart-racing is nearly gone and besides a few aches & pains in the muscles, I'm doing OK (despite the residual hangover of course). The headaches have subsided a bit too, but I know what you mean. Mine are these really sharp/shooting pains at different places on my head that come and go, but never fully subside. The only thing that kept me comfortable last night was laying on my left side in this odd position, giving me maybe 5-10 minutes relief, but my heart was pounding so hard/fast that I knew it'd either be another sleepless night or I'd have to just bite the bullet and take the V.

But with headaches, caffeine actually will HELP, so if you're used to drinking your coffee, keep doing it, because I can almost guarantee you that if you stop, those headaches will get much worse. It sounds like the lack of sleep is catching up to you a bit too, but I don't know exactly what will help with that except SLEEP.

Either way, keep it up and I'm sure you'll get through this just fine, as I'm sure the worst is already behind you. Try and get as much sleep as you can be allowed because that is the ONE thing that helps the body to regenerate itself during a WD.

Good luck, hope this helps somewhat ;-)

I am on my second week of being off of large amounts of Lorcet and Soma....I am not necessarily feeling bad....but all of the sudden since yesterday, I am feeling so tired, fatigued and have a slight headache.  Maybe the lack of sleep is catching up to me, or is this something else.  Now all I want to do is sleep.....any ideas besides large amounts of coffee that I'm trying to keep down so I can go on with my daily routine....thanks for all your input...and if anyone has any ideas from their experiences....please share....thanks...kristen

hey your still with us!
good!
how many days have you gone?
try to think of self detoxing as "pulling rug out from under one'e self." This is vastly superior to having some one else do it.

**** i've been on and off more times than a flashing neon sign!
after 3-4 days you will begin to see light again. when your
appetite returns you'll know you've gotten free. thats when this forum will be your lifeline.

wish there was more i could do for you man, but this is just one
death valley we all walk across alone. just keep moving toward
the light!

remeber: nothing new ever happens in drug land. all junkys have
the same old tired lines and i've heard them all, cause i've said
them all. You and the world will be new again, once you get your
hand clean of dope!

keep an angel on your shoulder

hey your still with us--good
about buprenex (bup) never used it but i would think im shot
would be better than IV shot. the reasion is this, have you
ever given youself an iv shot? Is there some one who could do this
for you? an im shot is easier to administer to yourself if you
don't have hypo expierence. Just jab your dose into large muscle
mass and squirt it in. It doesn't hurt to much. Before i shot drugs, i worked with a powder brained methadrine whaco named ajax.
ajax used to grab my arm and say "people who don't like needles end up loving them." I guess he saw my future. it might be a real good
idea to see if your doc line you up with a good shooter. Bup may
not work well or at all orally. Hang in there, we need you here
with us! the strength you share when your growing gives all of us
what we need most of all!
keep an andel on your shoulder
