Did you check the thomas recipe? It's not that expensive to get. Vitamins and amino acids are much cheaper than the lortabs. I don't wanna sound harsh but in your post you say you always find money for them, maybe you should invest in the thomas recipe, it's a win win situation for you.
Best of luck. sophie.

You can do it.   It is not fun or comfortable, but it is doable.
I'm on day 9, had a very anxious day, but it is getting better.

Best to you

everyone goes through what you have been through. I do have some journals in my profile on wd's, that should  help. plus the health pages like Gizzy stated.

you gotta seriously want it bad, if you are trying it yourself.often people do, then make the mistake of thinking they can handle it better the next time around. you have to surrender, to only begin down the road to victory.

Welcome
I'm at day 9 of cold turkey from 15-20 vics a day.  I tried to taper, but it just did not work for me.  Days 2-5 were very uncomfortable, but you can do it.

Read some of the other posts,  many people are going through this right now also.

symptoms, chills, sweets, achey, anxious, not much sleep, the list goes on,  but is well worth the week or two of symptoms for a life of freedom.

Is it possible for you to taper of them? 20 seems like a lot to c/t from, but there are some here that have. If you look in the top right of this page, you will find the health pages. In there you will see the thomas recipe and that can help with w/d's a bit.

Congrats on wanting to do this, it's tough at first, but there is a big prize waiting after-FREEDOM. Good luck and keep us updated. This is a great support group.
