Please help! How long will these norco withdrawls last?

Hi, I've been using norco for about 2 years on a daily basis. I take at least 9 pills a day of 10/325. I recently got up to taking 3 pills at one time. My last pill was 48hrs ago and I feel really crappy! I am so sleepy and exhausted, but I can't sleep. The first night I slept for about an hour then I got up and went to work. The whole time at work all I wanted to do was go home and sleep. When I got home that was the last thing I could do. I tossed and turned all night. Finally I remembered that I had a few soma that I had taken a long time ago, so I took 1 and I slept for a full 4hrs. I am not going to take anymore soma I just want to be able to stay clear of all meds. Since I've stopped taking norco I've gone through so much. I am cold one min and hot the next. I am not hungry what soever, which is very weird. I sneeze all the time. My body is very weak and I feel kinda depressed. I have the choice of getting some more pills, but I'm trying very hard not to. I hate these withdrawls and I feel like maybe I shouldn't have gone cold turkey so I keep telling myself that maybe I should get these pills and try to come off of them slowly. Does anyone know how long these withdrawls will last? Any advice? PLEASE!! Thanks!

I been taken Lortab 7.5 like 6-9 a day I ran out I was in another country, I went nut.  I went to doctor and he gave me Norco 10,500  I was taking about 4 to6 a day I been on these drugs 25 years.  I went to bed and sleep 12 hours and I wake up carzy.  I said I got to stop and I did by praying and I took this med. a long time ago I hate it but real help with getting off Norco, it stop all pain because Norco want you to have pain to take more. so I ask my dr. to put me on Amitriptyline 25mg. I called my Daughter told here I was wanting to take Norco, she said Dad take 4 of Amitriptyline 25mg and that did not help because Norco cause leg pain very bad, I call my Daughter and said take more Amitriptyline 25mg I took a total of 9 in one night, then next night I took 1.  Amitriptyline 25mg stay in your body a long time but it not habit forming, I been of Norco now for 4 week, thank my Lord Jesus Christ and his Father in Heaven and the power of the Holy Spirit.. I made it....... and You can to I got real mad knowing this drug was control me and that when i said no more and just stop the Amitriptyline 25mg took the pain away last night I took one quater of Amitriptyline 25mg I do not like this drug but one quater of Amitriptyline 25mg is like 6 mg I was in a car wreck and my neck fracture in 3 places and hurt my back, I still have pain but I still had pain when I was taking Norco so what the differents pain with or with out you can deal with pain I keep geeting hurt like I torn my big toe nail off one night I went to bed it hurt about 2 min. because the other pain in my body is much greater, you just got to deal with pain and do not let it control you. Have a good day Robert......

I have been reading everyone's post and you guys are so strong you can do this! You have people that love you and life is really wonderful when your straight. I am having issues with my husband and his taking narcos. I have found them in his car, in his pockets and randomly on the floor. He swears he isn't taking them anymore but I can tell when he is on them. He has lied to me several times about them and then swears he will stop taking them. I don't trust him and I don't know what to do. I don't want to see our marriage break up but, I cannot continue like this.
