Grateful But Still Need Help

your replys to my post of using ultram has been wonderful and i thank you all i am at hour 61 and i do believe that the ultram help with withdrawels ( i have also heard th w/ds from ultram can be worse and last much longer. i just want to make sure that taking 1 sometimes 2 but never more than that i only have 8 will not make me start withdrawels all over when i have used them all i am still having withdrawel symptoms but am coping hoping tomorrow will be a better day, in your opiopon will useing 8 just fool my brain into thinking its still getting a narcotic or can i just use it to help me get though has anyone done this? i know i sound desperate and am looking for the easiest way out but i am definately still having withdrawels but they are somewhat managable. Buy the way (HONESTLY) will tomorrow be more difficult its 11 pm and im now at 62hours just want to know what to expect. Thanks for listening sorry to be a pest but i am desperate. julie
Pesky....
I am on hour 96.....withdrawal......you have to face it that you will have to face the withdrawal pain sometime. Just go with it. Think of it as a challenge, a battle. For sure, when you kick this, you will look back and be proud of yourself. This is my second time around getting off this stuff. I wanted so bad to spread out my Norcos so I wouldn't get withdrawal, but couldn't do it. I ended up pretty much running out then going c/t at home. It is very uncomfortable and scary.....be strong.
Your best off flushing the pills down the toilet once and for all. The sooner you stop the pills the sooner the withdrawls will end and the sooner you can start feeling better and get on with your life.

Even having a few pills with play with your mind ALL day. It's all you will think about. Isn't that sad? Thinking about a stupid little pill all day. Have a little ceremony and flush them down the toilet. It will be your way of saying, "Im now taking my life back."

Don't try and justify to yourself how you can still take pills! It's time to grow up and get real with yourself. I'm not trying to sound rude but thats the reality of it.

Good luck.
I agree....flush the pills. OH it's so easy to say. I remember thinking of my little hiding places...checking to see if maybe I had 1 more left....checking my purse, the floor, pockets.....just 1 more pill. Calling the doctor to get "cut off"....
I am still on day 5. I am probably not the best person to give advice because I am still in such trouble. I am sitting here at work trying to act normal. The only thing keeping me sane is reading these posts.

Try flushing the pills and starting your journey.

Heya Kat,

I was SO the same way as you. Looking in my bad to see if I left one there, or checking under the car seat, or in the couch cushions..... I think even 2 or 3 times I DID find a pill too!!

I've done or did it all. But in the end flushing my last few pills was somewhat of a relief and a victory at the sametime. At that point I said to myself, "this is where my new life begins."
