Help needed! On day 4

I've never posted but have been reading for months. I'm on day 4 cold turkey from 30-45mg Percocet a day. Haven't had too bad symptoms but I feel like I'm carrying a 2 ton weight when I try to get up to do anything! Just hoping for some encouragement.

AMEN!! No looking back now!! Looking forward to a crystal clear future!!! I'm just so relieved!!! Thanks for responding. I can use all the encouragement I can get. I went to my meeting and confessed all. Everyone was very supportive but also cautioned me to be careful!! As my MsD says,"GUARD UP!!"  I really want this!! My appointment with pain management isn't till November 16th. I'm working on that. Thanks so much for helping me. You have no idea how much it means.

Hey all. Well I talked to my sister and told her everything. She started laughing so hard!! I couldn't figure out why she thought it was so funny!! She said to me, "That was genericTylenol in that bottle! Trust me, my pills are someplace you will never be able to get ahold of them. So you are good to go. Learn from this, Deb. I love you and I want you to get healthy." I was SOOO relieved!! And yes I certainly did learn from this!! But I have to say that looking back on it, I didn't feel anything when I took her pills. I just figured I couldn't feel because of my high tolerance. So thankfully I don't have to go back to day one. Thanks Bella and my guardian angel, MsD for caring!! I will keep posting and reading.

Hi MsBee.  Oh no girl! What was the trigger? Is it that you knew they were there?? Well honey I whole heartedly agree with Bella. You must tell your sister everything about your flushing party, detox and stealing. She has to keep these pills hidden from you. And tell everyone else you associate with who may have pills the same. Have you spoken to pain management about canceling you scripts yet? How will you feel telling this at the meeting? And after all of that,  you are right back where you were.Detox day one. Don't you see how pointless that was? So no judgment, still love ya,, just want you back on the boat lol. Your secrets will keep you sick. Guard up. This is your captain speaking.
