Question First post, new to ALL of this...

Today is only my second day clean. I weaned
myself from a 70-80mg a day opiate abuse down to 10mg a day. Yesterday I went to a psychiatrist who is helping me do at home detox, along with my family.. I don't feel nearly as bad as the last time I quit, but that was cold turkey off an 80mg a day abuser, and I literally felt suicidal I felt so awful, hence the relapse ...Weaning myself off has made all the difference in the world! It's been almost 48 hours since my last 5mg... Am I feeling okay cause I weaned off, or is the worse yet to come? Part of me is confident that I won't get worse that it's because I weaned off so much, but the other party is just waiting to feel like I got hit by a truck :/... I'm new to sharing this with outsiders of my family, who has been amazingly supportive in helping me get clean and put back together, but I also have to face that none of them know what I'm truly going through, none of them truly know how I feel.... I'm scared, but yet I want this so much!

Did weaning down like that keep me from feeling awful?

Hi KeyLime

I know nothing about opiates so I've no idea - whatever the reason I'm glad you're feeling ok

I wanted to welcome you to SR too - you'll find a lot of support here
