Is there home remedies for detoxing

[missdetox]

Im sorry to hear about ur situation... But we all have problems and it depends on how we handle it... I am only eight days completely clean so from personal experience u have to want it!!! I was tired of living in a fog... My fiancée is a good man just not the man for me... He will make someone very happy just not me... But I find this forum very helpful! Good luck n quitting cold turkey is the way!

missdetox, Am in the same boat as you relationshipwise. I once told my person I didnt' think I would be with him were I not on meds. That was years ago and now I believe that may have been the real truth.  Sad however he has treated me miserably and has been of no support whatsoever and perhaps the opposite.
Unfortunately, I am working on tapering off methadone which is a longer harder process as far as I know and I am having a great deal of trouble so anyone can help please do.
Any natural home remedies that have really worked, I sometimes take a little more to help me get things done because of the unsupportive environment where I am nagged and yelled at when I dont get stuff done.

Mostly,  i have been sticking to 60mgs.  Am supposed to be at 5.  Was taking too many for awhile at one point i noticed I was up to 22 pills.  then I knew it was a problem.  

Was prescribed at 80mgs when I told my doctor that I had taken too many as a result of the cold and asked to be tapered off.  At this point, was probably around 100 to 140.  She told me to go to 7 since she acted off the 80 dose she prescribed.

I had a lot of trouble getting to 7 and even at 6 I seem to be okay in the morning with exception of no appetitie which is fine with me and go good or lengthy sleep. As the day wears on though I become lethargic and kind of ill.  Nothing that wouldnt be more manageable in a healthy supportive environment.

Anyway, yesterday I took 7 plus breakthrough meds and today I want to be able to help my daughter because she asked me to and we have had the worst relationship for awhile thanks to the emotionally abusive relationship I have been in and the pills which make me inconsistent.  I want to help her however this is also the reason I need to get off these.  
Well one of the reasons.  I need to be consistent for myself my children my mother. I have always taken any substance for energy to get things done. For instance, I do not like valum or anything of a relaxing nature.

One thing I need to realize that once off of these I am like anyone else. Force myself to do things I dont like that need to be done.  After the sickness that is.

This drug is ruining everything I am.  Please help me to get off this drug with the minimum amount of discomfort I can.  

Anyone with any ideas please let me know. This is the first time I have ever signed up for a forum.  I need a place to be completely real and honest about any amounts or symptoms that I have had.  I am even a little nervous here cause you have to give your identity to sign up.

Hello... What r u detoxing from and thank u! Trust me the devil is busy but all I can think about is how I felt when I was detoxing... So ill take how I feel now over that any day! Its like I have new eyes and soul!  Keep up the good work! Day 22 is close so im happy!

[NeverDreamed]

Congrats Missdetox!  One week is awesome.  Keep it up.  I'm at Day 22 today, before today i've never made it passed day 5.  My sleep is good and has been this passed week.  Your tummy troubles, is it nausea or diarrhea?  I had to use immodium up until about 2 weeks.  I still have to use it here and there but nothing consistent.  Energy was still a little low, I began taking a multivitamin, along with a Super B Complex vitamin, and my energy is high...not giving me anxiety high, but wide awake and feeling good.  Are you taking any vitamins?  I love your motivation and your strong will saying "you are done with these, and no turning back."  Keep it up, keep that positive thinking up, the devil still tries to turn me around ever so often, and I have to focus on something else, or post here to take my mind off of it.  Good Luck, and Great job!!

Right there with you missdetox. Day five for me as well, and loving life at this moment. I keep seeing all these posts about 30 days 60 days and so on, thinking "God I'll never make it that far" but thats just my mind trying to make me slip. So heres to a clean tomorrow. We'll deal with the rest as it comes. Keep up the good fight!

[missdetox]

[missdetox]

Thanks guys I will keep u posted on my daily progress! going back is not an option! I miss me and how I was before pills... Thanks again n  mikeinfrance keep up the good work! Cant wait till im at thirty days!

I feel like we hVe experienced alot of the same things. I have a business and i was able to continue running it during my one year daily usage of oxynorms. I really abused them...  Getting up to 250mg a day by the end of it. I stopped CT 30 days ago after just finally being fed up and realizing death was the only other way out at the rate I was going. So I just stopped! Went to a friends place who knew nothing of my problem an I told him what's goin on and that I needed his place and him to detox. It wasn't easy at all.... Not to tell someone and not to detox either. I was in bed for days! I was freezing for days! Appetite was good throughout but sleep or lack thereof was and is still an issue. It's not an easy thing to go through but it's a courageous thing to do and its the right thing to do for yourself and for your family. And your life has not passed u by! Please! Ok? U r still young and don't stress yourself about maintaining a relationship or other things of that nature now.most importantly , concentrate allyou hVe on pushing through this! And you will.... Just don't have any other option other than succeeding !

it is best to move around as much as possible to get your endrophins producing naturally on their own. it is important to stay hydrated and to try to take in small amounts of food. take small sips every 10 minutes. eat crackers and or toast,soup, dehydration and lack of nutrition make the symptoms worse.
if you maintained your dose at 30mgs a day you are dependent not addicted.
great work on wanting to get clean.

[missdetox]

How long have u been clean...I feel like crap all I want to do is sleep n eat but I cant hold anything down!any ideas??im not going back to pills no matter what! Fortunately I have a career so I was able to maintain my lifestyle without raising any flags! But now im in my early thirties my life has passed me by! Im in a relationship that I dont think will last once pills r out of the picture... Just confused n ashamed I let this go on for so long!!

[MikeInFrance]

Wow....it's amazing that you were able to maintain those levels for 10 years...it's not a high dosage but lengthy amount of time. So you've been through this before and your fiancé us four through it now .... U know what's coming. I didn't take any prescription Meds either and my  worst symptoms passed after 5 days. I was fortunate to take 2 weeks off for it. You have a few days so that's def an advantage. I understand completely about not wanting others to know.  What advice I cam offer is 1) don't have any pills anywhere nearby at all whatsoever when you commit to stopping this 2) and you must commit to it and not accept failure as an option. 3) keep a positve attitude throughout ....u r reclaiming ur life back and it's definately worth  some uncomfortability to get it.  I didn't take any supplements or anything myself but some people swear by them and you'll prob read some posts or comments from them soon about what helped them: hope it helped....

[missdetox]

I dont want to take any prescription drugs to detox... Im having diarrhea n restless sleep ive been home from work for the last four days and I dont have to go back till thursday but I want to feel better... Like I stated in earlier post my profession keeps me from sharing with anyone except family n close friends...

[missdetox]

I detoxing from percocets taking no more then 30mg daily for the last eight to ten years! I have tried to quit before many times before but the longest was thirty three days then relapsed!   My fiance also takes them but he is two weeks into his detox... Please help!

[MikeInFrance]

I don't think it's out of line at all.... In fact you are sharing what may have worked for you.  I did a do the same.... And perhaps I may be out of line here also but to me in my eyes, my experience and my life... Marijuana comes from nature and although I smoke I never once considered it an addiction, problem ir drug for that matter.  And missdetox... What r u detoxing from? And how much? And have u begun? More info to be able to help ....

Hi, I have been wrestling in my mind telling this, but I feel I must say something. I truly, from the bottom of my heart apologize if this is out of line, but I am also on my third day of at home detox/cold turkey. Only today have I started the Thomas recipe. But have smoking marijuana all three days. I have had no diarhea and no restless legs. A little depression and a lot of back ache are the only wd symptons Ive had. I really feel the marijuana is helping but again dont want to suggest trading one drug for another. I am coming off a four year run with oxy. { truly apologize if this is out of line.
