Thanks Sharon.  Ive been coming on here for years trying and trying to get the courage to stop but I just kept finding excuses for one more day.

I have a wife and son and just found out we are expecting again and I want to be the "real" me for my family.  My mom died 5/1/2007 and i regret that the last years of her life i was opitated (thats what we call it).

This group is the best I just want to be NORMAL again (been so long I dont know what that feels like but I bet its awesome!)

You CAN get thru this.  I'm on day 8 off of Norco's and feel so much better...the first 5/6 days were bad.  Take hot showers, eat lots of vitamins, gatorade and sleep, sleep, sleep - if you can.  The restless legs and inability to sleep will pass and the fog will lift.  You're at the right place, so many supportive and caring people here day and night. Congrats on stopping and each day that passes is one day closer to feeling like a million bucks - only without drugs!  Best of luck, Sharon
