how to find doctor

[ocd_vico]

How do you find a doctor to help you... I need some one to help me with this hi anxiety while I taper down. I am using morphine 120 mg a day 30 mg of percs per day...I also take vicodin..this is my real problem I need to get off the vicodin and just live with my perc and morphine for a while... But the anxiety is so bad... I need something for it while I quit the vics...

if u r at the point to where u r abusing one of the narcotics then it is probable that u could potentially abuse all of them....narcotics are narcotics and it is like an alcoholic who is a scotch drinker switching to wine in hopes of drinking less...doesnt work as a rule....lots of factors to consider but the morphine is the least abused out of the 3 and tapering off the other 2..maybe the vikes first and then the percs..then evaluate the morphine..but while doing so u would have to be sure u r not increasing doses of the others...tough and most need help/sopmeone to hold the pills.....can u ask ur doctor for help and something safe for anxiety while u do this/if u do this?   also being strong is a big part of this..do not convince urself that u can not do it/or u will not be able to....convince urself that u can..keep posting..thomas recipe can help

Oops -- sorry I called you a guy-- no offense intended - I just didn't read your information.

Hi Ocd-vico ----  You are getting some of the best advice in the world above -- these people know what they are talking about.   The opiates are killing you -- and dulling your senses along the way -- I'm not throwing rocks at you -- we have all been there ---  You are no more of a 'wuss' than any of us were when we realized we had to quit --- You CAN do this.  Part of the big lie that drugs convince you of is that you are weak -- it is not true ---  I started out to find a Rapid Detox place b/c I was so convinced that I didn't have the strength to quit--- I was wrong and so are you --  You are also trying to quit a class 3 narcotic (Hydrocodone) instead of the two class 2's (Morphine and Oxycodone).  I can read between the lines and think you must be doctor shopping b/c I don't think any doctor would prescribe all three.  Stay on here guy -- read the other posts --- and  by all means, keep posting yourself -- You will find real strength on here and encouragement.  All the best to you and Happy Thanksgiving.

The anxiety is caused from the pills.  I have to agree with the comments you need to stop taking all of them.  If you cant do it alone get help detox rehab be up front with your family or friends and your doctor.  I have been in your shoes and you can do this....
