HELP please??
Hi
I have been taking over 30 30/500 of codeine in the last five yrs. After finding out how much this drug is like being on heroine and being in a happier place - have decided to wean myself off them.
This started on Wednesday of this week when I told my partner about it. She has been very good but I feel like I am doing it all wrong.
I went from 30 a day down to 8, 6, 4 then down to 8/500 bought from the chemist. I am now taking 4 off them a day but I worry I have done this all too quick (5 days)
i am suffering from the usual side affects and I understand this is my fault so I take the pain that I am having to get myself out of this mess.
The doc stopped the codeine but started me on Gapabentin - are these just as addictive? I feel like they are maybe masking the wean and as soon as I stop taking codeine all together - all hell will break loose.
I am looking for someone to tell me if I am doing this right or if I am being an idiot by taking 4 8'S a day?
Thanks so much
