How to kick feeling terrible!!

I have been taking Vicodin for about a year now for arthritis i had in my kness from dancing ballet for 13 years! I have been about 3 days without taking it i was taking about 5 a day:( I feel TERRIBLE!!  im only 26 and have a 3 year old son i dont need to have this horrible feeling anymore! Im off work for about 3 weeks but i dont see how i can go back with feeling like ****!! How long will i have to deal with this:( Im really a healthy person im in and out of the gym go jogging almost every day never really get sick.. But i guess i just let my vicodin get out of control! I dont want to take it anymore..and dont really have time to go to a rehab place (I couldnt imagine my familys reaction) but i just need to know if there is anything that could give me some relief the next week or so!  I feel HORRIBE!

AT 5 a day you should be feeling alot better in a couple days...Look at the heath pages and the amino's.....Since you jog, and workout, try to do that as soon as you can...Even if you have to make yourself , you will be amazed at how you feel better, and sleep better...Good luck, and Stay strong...

time.  And the thomas recipe if you look it up in the health pages.  you should start feeling better by the 4th or 5 th day....there is no easy way out really.  But generally, (unless your on methadone or suboxene) withdrawls last about 7-10 days.  All the best
