need some help with withdrawl symptons

[Bn2004]

hey i guess im a little more addicted then i thought. i have been taking roxy 30s for a few months now. recently it has gotten to the point where i take them more days out of the week then not. no more than like 1.5 pills a day. but last week i decided i need to stop now before it gets worse and unfixable. today is thursday i took them last friday but have took a half of a pill on tuesday to calm my stomach and aches. i never took them for more than 3 days in a row so i really  was not expecting myself to feel like this. my stomach is killing me and im nauseous, this would be more tolerable if i didnt have 11 straight hours of school every day.. which is pretty much what has led me to this point but im a fairly strong person id like to think.. the mental part of this is fine. its just the physical.. i have the other half left from tuesday i wonder if i take that today if it will help.. anyone that can help with this i would greatly appreciate. thank you

HI Bn,
Your post caught my eye, because I kind of felt the same way... I guess I'm more addicted than I thought.
I was surprised that physical withdrawals would be a problem. I didn't know anything about that until I tried to stop and felt like death on a dish.
Anyway, hot epsom salt soaks help too. Especially after a long (!) day at school.
All the best,
~Lindsay

I found help using milk thistle, marsh mallow and burdock. Made the stomach just a bit easier. Valerian is great for sleep and general, all over support. It has to be your choice to take that last 1/2 pill tho. If u have managed for over a week, just make sure that you really NEED it, not just WANT it. It has to be a need due to the very really chance of either going back a day or two in the withdrawal process or just delaying the inevitable. A choice like that, has to be made by u. Its awesome u decided to quit so quick. In some case, like mine, 5 years passes and u miss all of it and say "what the hell happened"?

laurel gave you good info on what to do.  I too am glad you are quitting now.  Addiction only gets worse and worse.  The mental part happens after the physical part is over.  Let us know how you are feeling.......sara

Hi welcome to the forum :)

make sure you are drinking a lot of fluids, Bn... you could also take some vitamins and a complex of B's , this can help you with energy but if you are feeling nauseous... maybe some camomile infusion can help yoou here too ... valerian root helped with my stomach cramps and with anxiety and with sleep.. yeah, valerian root helped me with a lot of issues now that i think of it ....

congrats for the decision of quitting....addiction is always progressive so the sooner you stop, the best :)
