spoke to a friend today think i found the answers to my prayers

As some of you may know i was trying to go cold turkey last week from oxycontin. I only made it 3 days and I relasped. Today i spoke to a friend of mine who has detoxed twice from oxy and he told me of a program at a local hosptial that he went though. he said that for 3 days they put you in a room wiht a tv and make you comfortable and give u anxiety and sleep meds and you cannot speak to anyone for 3 days but he said it was not uncomfortable at all and he barely felt the withdrawals and he was taking a very large amount of oxycontin more than me. So im going to call the hospital today and he said insurance covers it all. Im so excited i found the answer i have been looking for for 7 months now!  so anyone please look into a hospital near you and see if this would be apossibility for you im sure most hosptials would do this.

I heard it works well. Im on day 2 of no oxycontin& really no problems i cant handle. Although i did step down what i was taking instead of cold turkey.  Hope you have success in doing this  as its hard either wayim sure .  

Good luck  Drew
