Is Recovery Possible ?
I quit smoking after 17years ( 2 packs a day), have quit many other things over the years, but the pain killers I've been taking over the last year, I am trying to kick them and just CAN'T..... I am wondering is recovery from morphine and oxycodone even possible? Nothing in my whole life has EVER been so difficult. I am a pretty strong, darn person, but I feel like such a pathetic, failure. WHY can I not just stop taking this ****????????? Please help! I am looking for help. I need help. I want help. Please HELP me.....????????????
What is your daily dose of oxy? some p[eople have more wd symptoms than others...mine was fairly light from what i read but i was so over the whole thing when i quit...i felt flu-like for 3-4 days...no DFTs..that is an unusual complication that severe alcoholism causes....DTs can be life threatening...r u quitting drinking as well?
are you using the aminos and the thomas recipe? they are in the health pages (bottom right of this page). hot baths with epsom salt helps alot. bananas help with the potassium..immodium for the stomach...heating pad or electric blanket for the cold and the aches....and make yourself exercise. i know i thought ppl telling me that were crazy, but i promise when i started walkin on day 2 it helped. i only walked to the mailbox 3 times the first day..far as i could go, but i built up and it helps. hang in there..this too shall pass.
I need advice on the DT's how to lesson or avoid them, they are so bad, unbelievable.....Any suggestions???
sure you can quit. it is not easy at all and takes more strength than anything you will ever do or have done, but you can do it. first you have to cut off all supplies whether they are street dealers or drs. then you have to make a plan and stick to it NO MATTER WHAT....
plenty of people have kicked narcotics..plenty...u gotta know u can and be sick and tired of them...it is very possible to quit...if u beleive u can quit
