hey girl, how are you doing? do you have any of the Thomas recipe to help with the wd? There is a link at the bottom of this page, it's all natural and OTC stuff you can buy at the store. I have to work, no way around it, so with the items on that list I was able to continue on with 'life'. like I've read and am living, wd is an event, recovery is a process, so make sure you have some aftercare, cut your sources, take one minute at a time and focus on 'now'. you CAN do this. keep posting, stay hydrated. we are all rooting for you!

God! This really sux. It has only been bout 17 hours since i took anything..im jittery and my heart feels like its gunna beat outta my chest!! Is this normal, its freaking me out!! Please help!
Well, didnt even last the day, took my last 4 nurofen plus, so, now, this is it! Im ready for it, i hope, im just over feeling like a slave to these stupid pills.. wish me luck, ill keep posting, let u know how i go... thanx for the replies btw :)
Gosh, I started taking Tylenol 1's with Codeine over 20 years ago, and thought it was ok. Just for headaches, but the codeine high was nice too......then found alcohol, then found opiates.
I've quit everything cold turkey. I did try to taper the opiate pills, but this addict takes everything until it's all gone. So that didn't work. Day 14, and I feel like my brain is beginning to sync somewhat....emotionally no!!
I would suggest when you do your daily things, just focus on what is in right in front of you. I would have to talk myself into how to get dressed, and do it really slowly! Be gentle with yourself, and don't punish yourself!!
God, havent been able to login for weeks, but , finally, it worked!! Ive decided against the taper, i just dont have the willpower..havent had any codeine since yesterday morn, feel crappy but ok at the mo...i just hope i can carry on with my daytoday things while iim w/ding, i cant just step outta my life..any support wd b gratefully received.
Hang in there. You can do this. Talk with a dr about a taper plan. Try Benedryl do help you sleep and Epsom baths for the rls. Up your vitamins-drink Gatorade. The mental part is worse than the physical. If you can try to go for a walk or get outside before bed-it helps. Stretching or yoga too. Hang in!!!!!
Wow... Sounds like you are at a pretty high dose.. We can't give out taper plans but keep in mind SLOW & STEADY WINS THE RACE!
Others will be along with more feedback soon. Hang in there!
