Roxie, loratab withdrawal

Hey guys! Let me start by saying I'm on my 2nd day of withdrawal from opiates, mainly roxies and tab 10's. I started taking tabs about year and half ago, but of course after a year those were not good enough. I was introduced to roxie 30's about 6 months ago. Of course once I started those the tabs sucked,familiar cycle anyone? The weird thing was I would never do more then 45mg of the roxies daily. I would snort that 45mg, immediate euphoria. I never knew this would become me. I'm tired of this life, a stupid pill controlling my every thought. My family does not know about this addiction, I have a beautiful wife and 2year old son. I guess they are the reason I only was doing 45mg a day. I had bills and stayed somewhat responsible during this addiction. But every extra dollar wa spent on pills. ...My question since I was only taken 45mg of this crap, will my withdrawal be short?. I'm day 2 low energy ,but taking Thomas receipe. I have not had runs yet, still waiting. Bad cravings, going to work tomorrow with no pills will be a challenge. Pray for me, this is my 2nd time trying to quit.

DAY 5 - its going really well. I have little WD side effects, mainly sluggish and not much of appetite. I went to get a oil change and ran some errands. I would have needed pills to do this before. Just a little better every day cravings come and go. It might be to early, but I am clean now! I'm not going back to pills. Enough about me, anyone need my support ?

Day 4 coming to end. I had another burst of energy after lunch, it felt good. I am sluggish now, but anyone would be if they did not sleep well the night before. They say day 5 you show improvement, we'll see. Its been a tough 4 days folks, but I made it. I am not going back to pills or I will lose my family. My wife is now controlling my money for a month. I screwed that up, but I don't blame her. Enough about me, how is everyone ??

@aw. I'm with you on this road to recovery. We can do it! Everyday will be better. I told all my contacts I was done, luckily they understood or I would delete them. I probably should delete them, but they are friends. Good luck to you. How u sleeping after day 3?

hey just wanted to stop by and give support. I am on day 5 ct off of tons of oxy/roxi. This is not my first time trying this but I hope to make it my last. The mental part gets me everytime. That and my 'guy' always just calls and calls. I cave. My fault. But anyways hope you are doing ok today. I don't feel great but I feel ok. Better everyday right? Hopefully. Hang in there.
