You would think that I would have learned by now. I cold turkeyed off of Tramadol twice, the last time in 2009. Swore I'd never take another, and haven't, but oh how I love opiates. Why, why , why??
I cold turkeyed off a 150-200mg a day Percocet run last May. Stayed clean for 4 months, then my back flared back up and off to the Pain Clinic I went.This was back in November. Started on 150 Lortab 10's a month that would last me maybe 10-14 days, and now I've been switched to 150 Oxycodone iR 15's which lasted me 9 days the last time.
I'm done. I took my last Oxy's last Friday, and luckily had some Kratom for the next few days(I know,I know, Kratom is addicting as well) . I was able to sleep at night, felt like hell for 3 days (really bad depression) , then at day 5 I got 25 7.5mg Lortabs from a friend. Of course those are gone-took the last tonight. I'm gonna go without Kratom from now on as well, and since I have had something in my system (either Kratom or Opiates) for the last three months, here I go with the withdrawal boogie again. Gotta say though that I'm thoroughly tired of being dependent on a chemical.
I wonder, will I experience the good. ol' regular withdrawals, or will they be milder since I have mainly had Kratom for the last week? Hmmm, guess I shall find out tomorrow.God bless everyone.
