That is an excellent way of looking at it .. You will be so glad to have that all over with even though it will be hard at first..i know my friend has been talking with you..your in good hands..Would you have help with the kids if you went cold turkey or even with some of the discomfot you might still have with tapering? thanks for you message by the way.your very kind...
thelma..i have a serious issue..could you call it will justt take a sec..
you are going to do great. you have a good attitude and that counts for alot. you can do it.
ya gonna be ok, its natural to have them buttaflies, part of knowing that ya are gonna be gettin back control of ya life!! addiction is a dirty beast, it will try all kindsa stuff to trip ya up, so be careful when ya do get that script. are ya gonna taper, and do ya have someone to help ya with doeling out the pills, or are ya strong enough to do it yourself? ne way, just a few things to think bout, good luck , ya got this!!
Thank you so much , I got up this morning a little scared, Just because I know that the trip to the Pharmacy tomorrow will be my last other than for over the counter stuff and the kiddos meds anyhoo im just going on and on arent I ? Ok so it wasnt a scared that I was going to quit it was one that Im happy that im going to be free of that stuff =) I am excited and ready to take on the bad so that I can get to the good!
PS Confused im trying sweetie to get msn now ! Its going slowly but surely =)
Love to you all , so much love for helping me save myself

Welcome to the forum. I tapered off vics...you will still have wds, but they will be minimal compared to ct.....Get all your supplies together and get started... the good thing about a taper is you can still work , do whatever w/ you kids, do all your activites, but the bad thing is you are in some form of wd for a longer period of time....it's easier on your body, I think...but again...a long, slow burn......but i would do it again!!!
So Good luck and keep posting...we're here for you... YOU CAN DO THIS!!!
Welcome to the forum. I was able to taper once and I didn't have to bad of withdrawals. The thing about tapering is it takes a lot of willpower. Usually if the pills are there we take them. Just get a good taper plan and stick to it. It would help if you had anyone to hold on to the pills for you and give them to you as needed. Another thing that helps so much is exercise. I didn't do anything too strenuous, just some long walks. It makes such a huge difference! Also, be sure to drink plenty of water to help flush the system. You have taken the first step to getting off these pills. You have to want to and you do! Just get a plan together, stay strong, and this will be in the past before you know it! If you need anything, don't hesitate to ask. This is a wonderful forum and everyone is so helpful! I know I couldn't have done it with everyone on here. This is a great place for aftercare too. Hang in there and best of luck!
