back again

So here I am again on this roller coaster of three weeks on and one week of wd due to inability to get a hand on any but this time I want to be done...My question is this, I know some people on here have been on some large amounts of opiates and quit...over the past year I have averaged about 20-35 mg's Oxycodone a day.  Is there any comfort in the fact that my habit is really small compared to others? also, anyone have any input on the use of Kratom to help....I a determined that this is it but I have to work 50 hours a week while doing it, no way out of that so can anyone give me an idea of how this may go?  I know I have wd before but this is probably the lowest dose I have ever wd from

I been clean almost 30 days. You have to say no to anything that you want to substitute the pain killers with. I will tell u Xanax can help w some symptoms I took them my first week of detox for comfort.  I did not get hooked but CAReFUL. Everyone is different.  just remember nothing worth being or having is easy. It's not easy there's no easy button.  You are worth it u can do it !

I was at about that much or more. I dealt w physical WD for 3/4 days.  But there is no way I would have been able to work.  But I have been told staying busy. Helps

Its your mind set that will get you through this. No easy way out. Use all the vitamins you can to help, ease and heal your body. Stay strong and ask for support when you need it.

kratom sux   it works but only for an hour or less.then you have to double what you were taking before and it just gets ridiculous
With your habit you can do it with little major symptoms.Just give it time for your brain to regulate and you will feel happy again.    :)    you can do it

Please dont add kratom to the mix.  Have you cut off all your sources?  That needs to be done.  Dont worry about the wd's, focus more on preventing this from happening again.
