Hey Erin, I got myself off of Oxy's by myself. I did call the doctor and he gave me a prescription to help, but I only took them if I absolutely needed them. I was doing two 80's a day just so I wouldn't feel that pain. You have to really want to get clean and change your life. You have put your body through so much that I felt the pain of withdrawl was needed. I will never allow myself to go through that much pain again, so I have been clean for 4 and a half years. You only have ONE life, why spend it wasting away?
