I couldn't have said it better myself! It seems like I could have wrote the post you did. I'm so sick of this crap. Worrying everyday about running out. I'd love to be down to 2 a day. How do you feel the rest of the day if you don't take any until the next morning?
2000, long time ago. I was and still am an addict. For fifteen years now I get my scripts and go off for two weeks. The next two suck. Like today, number two with nothing. For about three years I got into coke and meth. Jail got me off that ****. And a job that tests me. You can't test me fo perscriptions that I have though. I can't stop shaking, sweating, and ********. Yes really, really, hot showers help, not for ever though. O my God this ***** why can't I quit. By the time I feel good again here comes my new scripts. O well.
Hello, I am a 39 year old male and I need some help with my addiction to pain killers. It started off with a visit to the doctor for a herniated disk and from then on it has grown out of control. I am currently taking about 20 pills of hydorcodone 10 mgs and I want to QUIT. I went without them for a day and a half and he side affects were killing me. What can I do to stop the addiction and get back to the life I had before them? I would greatly appreciate any suggestions that you may have. PLEASE HELP!! I don't know what else to do.
I feel the same way Lynn, your story stood out to me. my problem is i am taking 10 vicodin 10's a day. I am suppose to take no more than 5 a day. I want to do this I just dont know how to. anytime something happens i run to the pills to numb my feelings. How were you able to ween yourself down to such a low amount? I really need help and advice but treatment is not an option!
THE BEST WAY TO BEAT A HABIT IS IFMYOU ARE ON PERCOCET LIKE OXYCODONE START AND SWITCH UP TO A HYDROCODONE ITS A DIFFERERNT KIND OF PAIN MED DO THAT FOR TEN DAYS AND YOU SHOULD BE PRETTY GOOD. IT HELPED ME ALOT AND I THINK IT WILL HELP OTHERS IT WILL TAKE THE EDGE OFFAND STILL KINDA HELP WITH THE PAIN
