Detoxing safely

[Singlemomma78]

Hello I am going to go off a 3 year 4 -6 a day Percocet habit on Friday alone .. I have to do this for myself my children and my new job that I start in two weeks . My dr recently prescribed me Xanax and celexa for anxiety and depression but I was to scared to tell him about the pills I have been taking ... I have not started the celexa because I am scared it will interact with the Percocet and haven't taken Amy Xanax because i haven't needed it .. Is it safe to take the celexa while I am coming off the Percocet or should I wait?

I was also just cleaning and organizing my cabinet to find the vitamins I want to take while detoxing and found a bottle of flexiril my dr gave me a couple months ago and I never took any .. I saw on your previous post that flexiril may help with the muscle spasms is it safe to take this with Xanax? And how do I know when to take what ? Funny how I'll endlessly take Percocet ( never more than half a 10 mg at a time ) but I'm scared to take Anyfhing else... Sorry for all the questions but I will be starting a new job in 2 weeks and it's imperative that I do this now because this is a huge promotion and I refuse to let my inability to take my medicine as prescribed ruin my chances of excelling in my career field ! Thank you

Should I get the Percocet out of my system first .. I cannot taper I don't have the willpower and nobody to help me

Yes, it is safe to take Celexa while coming off of Percocets. Xanax may also help the withdrawals. Take your time tapering the medications, it will require commitment and dedication on your part. Read the answer I just gave to the person before you. It has lots of good info relevant for you as well.
Good luck.
