welcome kelly! Looks like im a little late on this thread ;\. Just wanted to tell you that you are making a great decision and it looks like you had the foresight to see that this little "problem" wasnt going to lead anywhere good down the road.
Being dopesick sucks, i know that constant fear of impending doom. its like a pendulum is swinging down getting lower and lower on you. You know the sickness is coming and your terrified and will do anything not to feel it. Over the past 3years I have detoxed off of many different opiods/opiates. (heroin, OC's, roxicet, suboxone, fetanyl) I noticed that you said you were detoxing from pain killers, if i may ask, what type of pain killer is it??
Congrats on making it through day 1!!!!!! hopefully you should be through the worst of it within the next two days and onto feeling normal again without pills. If you ever wanna talk PM me, ive been through it countless times..~~ SCott
