Tim
i read both of your replys. thank you! this site will be the thing that saves me, if nothing else. I do need help w/ the physical. and i'm scared, cause my back hurts so bad w/o them. if it hurts so bad now when im young (25) what's it going to feel like later in life? can i get off of these things? what if i actually need them for the pain? it's so sick, but i just can't imagine my life w/o them. but i hate what it has made me. everytime i ask my friends if they found any for me, it just makes me feel like some sort of loser w/ a damn monkey on my back. i didn't used to be like this. these wd's are ruining my whole life. im looking at my hands right now, and they are shaking like nothing i have ever seen. i'm scared. i just read on a different website that you can have seizures from wd's. is that true? i know my heart feels like its going 3 times what it should be. this reply doesn't even make sense. im sorry. im going to try to find your postings from when you were wding, like you said. maybe they will help. thank you so much for taking the time to reply.
-by the way, my name is kelly. that way you dont have to call me frog. but i respond to that to, so its all good.

first do me a favor and take a few deep breaths...

You can have seizures from w/d'ing from bezo's(xanax/ativan, etc..) it can be touchy to w/d from booz and meth/crank/coke etc..c/t. I have read the PDR(Physicians Desk Reference) on all the prescription opiates, and have not read a single case in the book where someone has phyically been harmed due to opiate w/d.....BUT like I said I am not a doctor, I have a BS in Biology and work with 4 Docotrs but anm not one myself, so it could happen I guess. My doctor told me you cannot die from opiate w/d, just wish you could. Xanax and the others are a different story. Just remember, the shakes and etc..will ease. God if you look at all my posts while in the middle of detoxing it is scary..I shook so bad, and could not think straight that I could not type or spell...but I kept pushing forward. Hot baths, hot baths and some more hot baths. Lots of fluids(water/gatoraide) and vits. I ate alright but had major stomach problems...Immodium helps. And I like frog but I will call you Kelly. I have a feeling you will be alright if you keep focused on the goal and stay with us on this board. We are hear for any support you need. Let me know how you are.

Hello all,

I love this Board! There are so many goodhearted people who really CARE about helping others. The night I discovered this site, I was actually looking around the net for a place to illegaly buy me some hydrocodone. What I found instead was such a gift, not another dealer. Thank you all, and good luck to everyone here. I have not popped a single thing containing opiates (opiods?) since this last Sunday the 18th and I believe (HOPE) that my withdrawals are finished. I was on the hydrocodones daily for about 2 months straight and peaking at about 130 mg per day. I cannot imagine what some of you have went through after WD-ing from many months and even years of daily abuse. Must have been a nightmare because mine was very rough on me physically, but I have no cravings, think I caught myself soon enough before they ruined my life. I have been taking 1.5mg of Alprazolam (Xanax) per day and drinking beer nightly and staying active during the day. Think I needed the Immodium the most though! lol

Thanks to all of you wonderful people here, and that my lucky stars this site exists. It gives me peace. Good luck all.

Hi, good for you. I'm GLAD yo didn't find some online pharmacy to buy hydrocodone from; after years of staying away from that stuff -- they sort of came to me and I could not believe how easy it was at this time to just get...as I posted a little while ago, i bought 60 and I came on here being real hard on myself - and everyone here was sooo great, supportive ...

But obviously; my mind is doing tricks and saying just for a little while longer (stupid, stupid) and so I thought OK, just 90 more - what is WRONG with me !!!???

The withdrawals after 3 years was a nightmare for me and I thought I'd never forget it; I haven't really...but I vowed never to put myself in this position again ... but never say never....

Take care.....

You guys are right...the people on this board are so much more caring and helpful than a whole room full of docs! I've been off the Lortab now for a couple of days, but the wd's aren't getting any better. Now the way I'm going, I'm going to get addicted to the Immodum. (kidding). I don't think I can do this. If someone walked up to me and offered me a bottle of Vicoden - god, just typing that beautiful word - I would take it in a heart beat. I need help. Can't do this on my own. this board is the only help I have. I guess misery truely does love company. Sorry, this started out trying to be a nice, positive message. I didn't mean for it to turn into this.
I'll keep all of you guys in my thoughts, please do the same for me. If anyone has any tips, thoughts, helpful hints, etc, please share!
All the best,
-Kelly
