Day 2 clean of opiates

[Lostpunkdc]

Day 2 ..... Ive been taking Valiums i had left over .... It dosent seems as bad as it was the first day ...

A lil Background on me ... Ive been in pain management, and was prescribed opana 20 mgs 2 times a day along with percocet 10;s 1-2 every 4 hours... It didnt work, then they switched me back to Oxycontin  40mgs 2 times a day and perc 10s 1-2 every 4 hours ....

I just got sick and tired of having my life taken away from me . I miss going out with my Buddies and having a beer, and going out to do things . I got it in my head so bad i missed doing what i us-ta do i just cold turkey-ed it ..

Day 2 , im feeling better, never really got the diarrhea this time around, more just restlessness , and sweating, and hot cold flashes ... Besides that  the Valium helps me sleep, which im only going yo be on till the end of this day ... I started to take massive doses of vitamins, which seems to be helping as well ...

All i can say is, if you wanna quit you will... every time i think about a pill i just reflect on the things i once enjoyed doing, and it keeps me straight , its not easy, and this isnt the first time i have done this .... But it will be the last ...


Good luck to everybody else out there , Stay positive....

Yeah well i had left over ambien , But i hate that stuff, i always wind up eating while on on them...

Ever since i quit though my Metabolism has been running wild....

Im going to start to train again, I still feel lethargic until i have my coffee and vitamins, plus a bowl of cheerios in the morning...

I still get sweats as well at night.... After that im pretty good throughout the day ...

wow man you are doing graet...keep it up :) day two is usually a pretty big day so you are about over the hump...a few couple more days and the phsical stuff will be over! Dont forget aftercare though...its important and IMO the only tool to stay clean

[Lostpunkdc]

I was just out actually .... My friend came by, im feeling great , a clear head ....

I still get the chills though and the sweating under my arms is not very becoming , but im dealing with it ...

Otherwise i feel yancy like i need to be out , so starting Monday after the snow stops falling around here, or even possibly Sunday im going to start working out again ...

It will give me something to do ...

As for aftercare  i have good friends who have been through the whole injury with me, and they know how i am so they are there for me

[Skidmore]

Hey way to go .Congrats on day 2 my prayers are with you .and dont forget about aftercare

You're very lucky you can do it on your own.

My own thinking just wouldn't ever fix my own thinking, although I tried over and over again. I finally had to surrender everything, the drugs, booze... It all quit working for me. I'm completely weak and powerless over any substance that delivers me to cookie-land. I've turned my addictions all over a power other than myself, and got with the people at AA; and now the people at NA. I'm still working on dealing with myself, which is what I was escaping.

I'm now on day 11 of WDs. There IS another side to the WDs. I feel fairly good now. But The "liar" is still lurking in my brains pleasure sensors. The better I get the bigger the liar gets. The liar keeps telling me more and more that I can use again. He tells me to remember only the "fun" times, like the initial rush, and forget all about chasing the rush the rest of the night, never catching it until I wake up the next day, only for the next rush.

So I read your post, and other posts, and tonight I'm hitting a Friday night NA meeting; ready to listen to someone, rather than my own thinking.

You're very lucky you're not like me, and can do this on your own.
