Thank you for your support toothfairie, it means the world. What did you have an experience with? The problem I am currently facing is I want to be done with this, plain and simple
Hi KM....you're posting on an older thread so maybe you want to post a new "question" so more people can see it.....there is tons of support here on this site....and good info.....i don't have experience with trams but some people on here do....so hang tight and maybe post a new question for help....it can be done...i've seen it here....just know you have my support and we will help you thru it! stay strong and be patient someone will come along soon.
I have been a tramadol addict for almost 4 years now. I have been up to taking 15-20 pills a day for the last couple years now. I have finally decided ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. I tried to start cold turkey, with my last pill being at 1 am on December 30th. I made it 19 hours before I failed that already and gave in. I don't think I am going to be able to go cold turkey because of how long I have been abusing the drug. Basically I am just looking for support and advice right now. I want to go cold turkey because I want this torture over as soon as possible but I think tapering is going to be the way I HAVE to go. I am sure everybody understand the hopelessness I feel right now...
No work for me. I sold both of my semi trucks, my trailer.
My motorcycle, my snow plow truck, my hot rod chevy truck. My beautiful 72 chevy monte carlo. My 71 gmc 1/2 shorty 4x4. It's all gone.
And it's was because i was hiding in my house. Not wanting to face the world. I didn't sell it all to buy pills. I had script for that.
BUT NO MORE. I'll get back up. Can't stop me now.
:-). Wonderful day all.
Heads up. Walk tall.
Thank you Pat. Your energy will return. We all are different. But I'm not telling you anything you don't already know.
I'm pushing myself because i want this in the worst way. I have no choice.
I have to kick this in the a**.
I've never been one to just sit idol. Always doing something.
And i think that will be my savour in this. Go go go. Until i can't go no more.
Then it will be done.
You my dear are doing wonderful. Your clean days you should be so proud of yourself. I know im proud of you.
Your a wonderful person. And I'm so happy you are clean. It would be a shame to waste, you on those pills. Keep trucking along. The world is a beautiful place clean.
Talk to you soon. Have a great day everyone.
Day 9 here...energy is somewhat back today. Hurray for small miracles at this point. Have a super busy day with work. It's better to get wore out doing something productive and fun and not needing a pill to tackle or recover from it now. :) Proud of you!!!
Have a great day. You are kicking a$$. I wish I had half of your energy.
Great job on getting rid of that pill.
Ok. Ladies, I'm crying cuz I'm laughing so hard.
You all are wonderful.
I did get rid of the pill last night when i got home. Got tired of looking at it. Lol.
It's funny i don't crave the pills at all don't even think about them all day.
Dirty little things.
Today is day 7 and i really feel good. Sleeping good. I hurt a little. But that could be from my heavy pack and bow. Idk??
My memory's the pits. But I'm guessing that will be the last to return. If at all.
Ha ha ha. Easy way out " i just don't remember that". Huh.. ha ha.
You guys are the best.
And leaAnn i was just in black rock, Pocahontas, AR last month.
You probably could have kicked me then.
Have a great day. I gotta get some coffee in me. Then off to the great outdoors for me again.
:-).

That is awesome! Good for you! Hope you stay warm!
ROFLOL!! This thread brought a huge smile and warmth to my heart. Not, you have helped me stay strong by staying strong too!! I was going to go do some Christmas stuff with my daughter and grandson yesterday, but she called and said she wasn't feeling well and I wasn't either. I was going to push myself to get out and enjoy the day, but the crud took over and I got lazy. LOL! You sound amazing and I am truly thrilled for you. Life is good after pills! Any day with no pill is better than what we thought was our best day on them. :)
Congrats on your 6 days clean!! That is huge! I am happy to hear you are getting out and returning to the things you like to do. Nothing like a good days hunt! Hold your clean time sacred and do whatever it takes to stay that way, your life depends on it~
Day 12 and. Still brain fog . I decided when I got the flu 5 days ago to just get off everything so Wellbutrin goodbye , man when it rains it snows and I'm so happy to be clean it hurts . A good hurt . Days feel like forever like some chronic disease and the choice to during Xmas is crazy. Thank you for all the support u guys are funny to .
COngrats on Day 6!!! Your doing such a great job and Like LeaAnn said, your helping me just seeing how well your doing! :)
And FLUSH THAT DARN PILL woulda!
LMAO!! OMG I am so glad I logged on here right now to see and read this!!! hahahahaha This will carry me through the day for sure! Thanks so much buttercup :)
LOL have you been contacted by the Grammy Award's producer. You're GOOOOOOOOOOD!!
I don't have a song.......but I have a book. It's a potty training one that has a button at the end that you push, and it's a flush that sounds like a sonic BOOOOOOOM! I hid it from Maddie when I trained her. I'd rather change dirty diapers than listen to that! LOL
If NOTORDINARY has a pill, you better flush. I missed that part from early on or maybe forgot it? Listen up......(well, look at my typing!) you better flush that pill. Don't make me come to WA. From Arkansas, I won't be in a good mood when I get there!!!!!!! : )
lol, it's driving me crazy because he needs to flush it lol.
Is there a flushing song??
I just can't think of one but that's cuz I'm sick. When I feel better I will.
Flush that stinking pill
You think you have the will
You may wake up one day
and think it's time to play
That's all I've got right now. Stay tuned lol
"It's staring at me too!" Bahahahahaha that pill must be looking through some heavy duty binoculars to see from WA to where you are in Canada! Is it singing "Oh Canada" to you also? lol Pat, you just make me smile. Even when I've had no sleep! Thank you! :D
YES! Your back in life again. The days will get better and better from here on out. Your post made me wanna go out and build a giant ole snowman, then I remembered, RATS, I live in Fla. and it's 85 degrees right now :(. Can't tell you how happy and proud I am of you. Soon you'll be posting your 30 days clean!
You really sound great and have been very determined to get through this.
Be so proud of yourself.
Now, did you flush that pill yet? It's staring at me too.
You know it's going to drive me crazy until you do.
Hugs
Pat
