I joined yesterday morning after coming across this site about 2 months ago. I feel pretty good today and I am sure it is all the positive responces I have received in here. I am sure I can beat this addiction as long as all of you can handle my postings and I am sure there will be a lot since I have literally no on else to confide in. So I need you all

HI  just wanted to offer some suggestions .....its best if someone else holds the pills and gives them to you on scedual if thats not possible get some envelopes.....put your daily dose in each envelope that way when there gone there gone your not handling the bottle where its ez to spill out an extra because you dont feel well......your going to feel it doing it this way it wont be as bad as c/t but you will feel it longer tapering requires discipline and perseverance you cant yo/yo your dose up one day down the next you have to be consistent for this to workstick with us here for support we all want to see you succeed good luck and God bless......Gnarly ....I will check on you tomorrow

I have taken up to 1000 mg of oxcodone daily over the last year normal 200-300 mg and tried to quit a few times but still had surgery pending so it was pointless. It has been 90 days since my last surgery so the surgeon cut me of of oxy and said I need to go to pain mgmt. I dont have the $$ to afford that and my ins has been cut off because I could not pay the prem. It's day 4 now and still feel like crap hot cold flashes no energy cant sleep more than 30 min. The last time I went ten days and relapsed. I cant afford to buy this crap on the streets and it has become hard as hell for me to find anyway. I prey that i can overcome this beast!! I live alone with few friends (mostly addicts) and all family out of state. I still suffer from avascular necrosis although I have had both hips replaced I have been told my knees are next to give out.  I need to get back to work because of past due bills due and scared to death of homelessness. I am in a dark dark place and close to throwing in the towel.

No not yet I started tapering yesterday. I set my limit to 3 and 1/2 pills of hydro 7.5/750. I was normally taking up to 4 a day so that sounded line a goo place to start. I only took 2 and 1/2 yesterday and had one left I was so proud of myself. I again have one left and hope i dont find the need to take it but today was not as good so I cant be certin.

[Innerstrength67]

You can and you will! I seriously don't know what I would have done if I hadn't found this site and everyone here. We all share the living hell of addiction. There is so much power in that.
You can do this, one hour at a time:)
