You are clean hun and you can stay this way. Just please hang in there and don't give up. And like I said, keep talking if you need to. Be good to yourself!!

It has been a while since I've had a solid checkup. That's a good idea thank you. I just want to be clean so bad I can't stand feeling like this. Thank you for the help

I'm on day 12 off norcos. I still can't sleep and get sweats once in awhile. It was day 7 or 8 when I felt I finally turned a corner. I feel pretty darn good though overall. I'd give it a couple more days. Fatigue could last a while. Good luck.

Please hang in there. I know exactly what you mean. I could never make it past day 4.  From what others have told me, yes it does get better...  please know that it will get better.  I have a feeling that it is going to take you another week or so before you feel relief.. and that is so tough to go through, I know.  From what I am told it is going to take you some time before you get full energy back, but you will. Your brain is healing.  Don't give up.

Take hot bubble baths, maybe splurge and get a full body massage.. keep drinking lots of water.. make sure you try to get some exercise. force yourself.  Don't give up.

I am counting on you to make it through because I myself will be going through the same thing soon.  Don't give up!!!! Keep posting.. every minute, hour or second and let us know how you are feeling, but hang in there!!

Hi,

For some it is normal, but not everyone. Most people begin to feel better, or turn the corner on day 5. When was the last time you got a good check-up? I ask because often times we use for so long and ignore the warning signs that other things may be going on with us, or we just ignore them. It is often not until we go through the physical detox that we realize we have other issues.

It may be a good idea to get yourself checked out to eliminate everything except for the detox. Let us know how you are feeling and keep talking. I know it helps to share what you are feeling with others.
