recreational use gone crazy

I started takiing narcotics (vicodin, percocet, oxys) recreationally 5 years ago. Generally 10 - 15 percocet 10/650s.  Other days anything that I can get my hands on. Today is the 2nd day with nothing and I am a mess. I can't tell up from down in from out or what any emotion is. I cry, I yell, I have cramps, I throw up. I do not want to live with the durgs in my body anymore. I cant feel anymore. I cant remember anything anymore. Life is passing me by and I dont know how to rejoin it. Please help. I need advice, support, staight talk and maybe a hug.

HI, and welcome to the forum. Pills were not my DOC so i can't offer much advice about w/d's, but i can offer support, straight talk and im sending you a hug. Im assuming you went cold turkey? Day 2 can be very rough and im sorry your feeling like this, but remember this is the price we pay for what we did to ourselves, and although it's going to be rough for a bit, it's worth it to be free from these pills and enjoy life again. You have come to the right place for support and advice, we know how tough this battle is.

If you look in the top right, there are health pages here with some great info. Also the thomas recipe in there seems to make w/d's a bit easier. Please hang in there and you will get a lot of feedback soon from people that have been where you are right now. YOU CAN DO THIS. good luck and stay strong.

We have all hated ourselves for this. the emotions that come with getting off drugs are overwhelming and this may be the toughest thing you have to do, but it can be done. You will feel like a whole new person soon, but you need to fight this. Cry, swear, keep posting, we are here for you.

Welcome to the forum. This is a great place for help and support.
Day 4 and 5 are generally the worst..but it is different for everyone.
Drink fluids and take hot baths for the aches and pain.
Exercise...if you can do it...really helps.
