and now the detox begins....

hellow everyone,

Today is going to be my first day without any pills. ive been struggling with a morphine-oxy addiction for the past year. this past week i have weened myself down to just 1 30mg morphine a day. yesterday i only had 1 vicodin 10mg. i dont expect today to be that bad, but i know what tommorow brings.


i have went without before, maybe 5-7 days at the most, and have gone completely through the withdraws. for the past year i have been buying someones script, and when it runs out, i deal with it, then start all over again.

My current situation is a little worse then before though. I havnt went a day without any opiates in about 3 months. before this past week, i was taking anywhere from 60-100mg a day. im afraid this is going to be the worse detox ive yet to experience.

i do plan on going to the dr, for something to help with sleeping and anxiety. i have a wife and young son, and my worse fear is being mean to them because i feel like crap.

usually when i run out, its a scramble to find more. this time i really want to quit. its been about 24hrs since my last pill and the withdraws are starting to set in. my throat hurts, headache, body aches amd diarhea. i usually succomb to the DT's and stay in bed and mope around the house in pitty. this time, im not letting this crap ruin my day. i dont care how shi**y i feel, im not letting this stop my life. wish me luck..

Welcome to SR lostonthe reef
I agree with Sikkisurus - the doc is the best way to go

Mrs

I'm in the same situation. I have been taking morphine for a year and a half.
It is hard to get off because the withdrawals is so bad. I'm down to one half of 30mg pill per day. I can cut back just a few mgs and have withdrawals for days. I have going thru them for about 2 months slowly cutting back.
Some days I will up dosage just to have a break. GOOD LUCK TO YOU!!
