Hello,  I am 14 days clean from taking 20 5mg of Vicodin a day for the last 2 years.  I am still weak and have no energy to do anything......not even take a shower or walk the dog.  Can anyone tell me when this will pass?

Starting to feel a bit better.  Sleep is coming around (only wake up about 2-3 times a night) and leg aches are manageable.  I've been going into the steam room at the gym; seems like sweating out the toxins is helping allot. Still have low energy levels, but doing my best to stay active and work through this.

I was taking exactly the same amount Foggy . Physical W/D about two to three days for me . Now the mental part we are all unique . You may get off easy ! For me it took about a month before the anxiety really started to subside . Hated that ! Like I said you may get lucky because that is a relatively low dose .. Good luck and keep us posted , Jimmy

Let me elaborate.  I quit methadone cold turkey about 12 months ago.  It was difficult, but I did it.  About 6-8 months ago, I started taking 10mg Vicodin again.  I take half a pill at a time and never have taken more than 3 10mg per day.  With this info - does anyone think my WD symptoms will be better manageable or should I still be gearing up for a very rough couple of weeks?  - Thanks in advance for any advice

I've been on 2.5 10mg vicodin's for about 6 months now.  Can anyone tell me how the WD's will be or how long they may last?

I cant nor do I want to tell you what to do or how to get through this. But I do know that subs are NOT the way to go. All ur doing by taking some to take the edge off is opening a whole new and bigger can of **** worms. Trust me. whoever tells u it helps is foolish. cause getting off subs is right there with herion. it's so much harder then what ur going through. not to mention a better drug in buzz substance then what ur addicted to now. Guess thats my advice. all ur doing is trading in a toyota colola for a lexus

Congrats for making it this far :) The answer is no and that's all my foggy brain can say.  Others will come along and tell you why.
