I'm sorry to continue bothering you all, need an answer PLEASE!

Hello everyone, good morning(not for me though). I'm sure many of you have seen some of my posts. In case you haven't, I am trying to detox from Percocet. I started Sunday evening. I was normally on anywhere from 6-8 10mg pills a day. I was doing well, then I slipped up on what should have been day 3 for me and took 1 10mg pill at 5am yesterday. Today, which should have technically been day 4 for me, I'm in horrible physical shape. W/d are really bad, threw up twice this morning trying to take my vitamins, diarrhea, my body is aching, shaky, sweaty, etc, it goes on. My question is, is this normal 4 day symptoms or did I entirely screw myself up yesterday by that one pill? I pray that isn't the case and I know I'm the only one to blame. But I'm so sick and just hoping this is normal day 4 symptoms as opposed to starting from the beginning. Please, this is so tiring already, I know I'm expecting miracles but I didn't even have the strength to get my children ready for school this morning. Advice or opinions PLEASE!

I agree with Langer. I think everyone's pain intensifies during detox (x's 10). You have to fight through it. Flush those nasty pills. You will get through this. Each detox is harder and harder on you. It's not easy by any means, but don't let the pills win. If you have em, chances are you'll take em. Don't give in, flush em!!

I really hope you don't give in - otherwise everything you fought for this week is for nothing. Please listen to what I and others have been saying, your body is flaring up in pain begging for pain pills. But it will get better. I think everyone here will attest they have less pain off of the pills. If you go back on, what's your end game then? You already said you hurt your family financially with your addiction. That will only get worse. You'll have to take more and more pills to stay at the level your are, and eventually you won't be able to find any more pills and then what? I really want you to think about your kids and your life with your family before taking anything.

Thank you for your sweet words! I woke up with the old extreme back pain as I used to. I have a big decision to make today and I don't know what the outcome will be. But still praying for the best and hopeful! Thank you so much, sending lots of hugs!

Oh girl...I feel your pain...I do.  You are such an inspiration.  You may not see that, but you are.  I'm sorry for your suffering.  Have you ever googled Yoga Nidra?  It is a meditation yoga that might help.  Stay strong honey and fight for YOU!  
Sending you prayers for strength, healing, and peace!

Good for you! Keep going. We are definitely in the same boat fighting this difficult fight. Tomorrow I will see if I win the battle in my head and lose the war to what's right. This pain is agonizing. And this depression has hit me full force! But you can do it! Way to go pushing yourself, I only got out of the house maybe 4 times during this process and two were to be at my children's games. Keep up the good work darling! You're on your way :)
