Day 3 Oxy withdrawal

[ctblues]

First time I have ever posted anything. I am on my 3rd day of oxy withdrawal. This is pure hell. Everyone knows the symptoms. I started using morphine in 2000 after an accident crushed my 4th vertibrae, I was on a pump. I learned how to manipulate the pump and after 7 weeks of 1000mg a week, I went ct. Worst days of my life. You think I would have learned from that. I am 53 years old, sober from alcohol 11 years. I started using percocet 10mg a day 1 year ago. I increased the amount and then went to oxy's. first 40mg a day to where I am now...100mg day. I have to pay street price. I decided to quit wednesday, it's friday morning. I just got a call letting me know they were available if I wanted some...I told him to never call me again. The crash isn't worth the high. I figure I am almost over the worst of this, maybe another 2 days max. I did get a visit from an old friend this morning, my first woody in 6 months...very interesting. There is no way I could have posted this the last couple days, I must be getting closer to the end...Unbelievable hell. I know I am doing the right thing, oh man it sure is tough, especially knowing a phone call will end all this...

Man CT I am glad you are doing very well!  Myself on day 9 not as good. I seem to have developed a fever from the wd. At least I believe that's what it's from. It's lower grade but still kicking my arse. Makes it hard to feel good and have energy. And eating for me it such a task anymore. I mean I am STARVING probably because nothing stays in for long. But when I do eat I am just drained from it. I have to lay down immediately. Hopefully I few more days and I can be where you are. I HAVE to get out and find a job next week :(

Just a little heads up immodium has a synthetic opiate in it that could be prolonging your ****** feeling thats what happened to me i was pissed to find that out soo watch what your taking and hang in there!!

but it does not enter the blood stream so therefore not having this effect.. In the old days when they sold the liquid it had this effect but no longer.. lesa

I carry what you wrote to me on Dec. 11th. I have read it many times. Thanks for your encouragement. I am at a time in my life where I need to do this. I will continue to work this. I am really enjoying being clean. I keep the evil thoughts out and try to focus on the positive. Day 10 was good. Thanks again. ct

hey buddy, how are you? I have been thinking a lot about you. I hope things are going better and you are starting to feel comfort. When I started withdrawals 10 days ago, I thought I would never get through it. I did...go figure. Now to keep it simple and just work this 1 moment at a time. Thanks bud ct.
