I know what you mean about the shaking..I am having that two..I have had two hot baths already that was so hot coudl hardly sit in them..then read a book..if its a good book you can get into it does help take the mind off the pills..all day I am fighting that one..trying not to think of eating pills but its hard when for five years thats all I have done..I am with ya..suffering along side of you..trust me..today is prob the worse day for wd's I have had so far...Everyone says it gets easier so we are gonna just have to hold them to that one..lol
Take care
Neverb4.............................and never again...
Thanks for all the advice. I find myself on this site, for at least 5 hours out of the day, just trying to stay focused on not popping.
Thomas unfortunately will not add a benzo not recommend anything as he died several months ago from an accidental overdose....it is 90% upstairs...if u feel the vitamins dont help...i dot hink they will...i found that they did when i was compliant and was at my last straw to get my energy back...i stepped it up and they worked and i still have my faves i take faithfully...amino acids are the building blox of our receptors and nuerotransmitters..that is a fact...will a banana stop the shakes....NO..will amio acids help an unhappy person be happy....NO...will supplementing ur body with vitamins/aminos it is lacking or that has been depleted due to drug abuse ..i beleive YES
I agree it is costly..some of us cant run out and buy all that stuff..I know I couldnt..I am off work on medical leave thus being how the oxy issue started while trying to rid the pain and I have a disabled hubby..dont know if they work but have heard lots agree with NautyOne..yes you might be venting abit..only abit..it would be nice to find something for us poor folk to get rid of the wd's..any idea's I would gladly take ...Smile Nauty..lol Your allowed to grrrrrrrr once in awhile lol
The Thomas recipe is .....dunno, but theres nothing in there that is going to stop the shakes......possible valium.....dunno. eating bananas or taking calcium is not going to do a thing. Now the clonidine.....possible. Don't mean to keep bagging on the health pages, but it's expensive to buy all that cr a p and it doesn't work. Placebo--yes.....but I guess whatever works......I will try to bite my tongue, but it seems in just about every post lately, someone is talking about it, and I want to pull my hair out. Maybe Thomas has a benzo for me right now.
Imagine that......The famous Thomas recommending trading one drug for another......I know what you might say........
Sorry, girly.......didn't mean to use your post for my venting. I sincerely apologize.
Nauty...........grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
Honestly I didn't think supplements would help at all. The Thomas recipe definitely helps. The supplements alone seem to lift my mood.
Even though exercise is the last thing on your mind. It helps tremendously. It gets the blood and lymph system moving which aids the detoxing. It provides energy by increasing your endorphins, which also increases your mood. Up your vitamins to 2x/day too.
Thank you all so much for your support. I am going right now to look under the thomas recipe. I am trying and trying not to think about them, but the shaking doesn't help at all......
hey, i had to checkout your other posts to kinda figureout what you were shakin from. alot of people here swear by the thomas resipe for w/ds.if you look to the right and bottom of this page there is a link to it. theb biggest thing is not to think about it, just let your body heal. it will go away, even the thought of pills will dimminish. try t occupy your mind , use music, watch a movie or just keep reading posts on the forum and keep posting it helps alot to know others are going thru the same, or just goin thru it with ya.Teddy
Hylands makes a Restless leg formula that may help, too. Drink lots of fluids and even Gatorade. I like Natural Calm with magnesium. It is a Calcium/magnesium supplement. Eat lots of bananas too or Kiwi to get more potassium.
I think Clonidine prescribed by a doctor helps the shakes. Also one or two items in the Thomas Recipe or an Amino acid. Please look at The Thomas Recipe and Amino Acid protocal on the right side of this page under Health Pages.
