withdrawal

[jn543]

i've been off vicodin for 17 days, completely clean, cold turkey after 1 year of 3-4 per day. I do feel better, but the nights are always the worst from about 7p.m and on.  Any suggestions

Kudos for your 17 days clean.  Sounds like you are heading down the right path.  Good luck

Question:  Nights around 7 pm.  Is that when you used the most?

I ask, because that was my problem.  I've had to rearrange my whole life in order to stay sane..........still trying to get there.

17 days is awesome!

And congrats on 17 days.  That is great.  Keep going forward!!!

A warm bath or shower helps me.

Welcome to the forum.
Exercise helps too. Take a brisk walk late in the day. Are you taking vitamins, supps and amino acids? Your body needs the tools to rebuild itself. Look in the Health Pages for the amino acid protocol. http://www.medhelp.org/health_pages/list?cid=66

Try staying busy. If you are a reader, night is a great time to read because it will keep your mind busy and also it makes you tired...LOL
Sorry, that is my only real suggestion but I wish you luck.
