Listen to JD he helped me alot. Hot baths work! Hang in there you can do it!
Do you remember how well you feel the day after you had a bad flu? It's like you feel blessed just to feel good again. If you tough this out, you will have lots of those days ahead. I am praying for you to stay strong. God bless.

J as hard as this may be the rewards tenfold PLEASE listen to JD he is very wise.AND HOT BATH CAN BE HEAVEN!!!!!!mj
Hot baths were the only thing that would really help me..... If you can, take 10 a day - just relax and concentrate on getting better.
I would also throw on my most comfortable sweat pants, my husband's sweatshirt, and thick socks and would sweat out the toxins.... I could always handle the sweats a lot better than I could handle the chills.

Ive relasped . Im so angry with myself. I dont know what to do
Jz, dont beat yourself up, I relapsed a few times, just dust yourself off and do it again, you now know what to expect, so brace yourself for it. Accept the withdrawals and dont fight em and let them get the best of you. Just try to roll with them and know they dont last forever.

you just pick yourself up and dust off and start all over again. yes when the sweats chills aches come on. hot hot baths as hot as you can stand it. then get out and bundle up and relax as much as possable. i sat in the hot tub prolly at least 6 times a day for first 3 days.
dont beat yourself up. your worth it. your not alone let us know how we can help.

thanks everyone for your support. I will try again. My problem with all ur recommendations is that I have been feeling too weak to do anything. Im sorry and thanks again for your support. Im not sure if I can quit ct Mabye the sub would be good for me.. I don't know. What do yall think?
maybe you should look into a detox dr. you can detox with non narcotic meds that help ease the symptoms. check out all your options. read and get educated as much as you can about each. how much of what are you trying to com off of?

Hey J,
What's up? I got your message you IM'd me. No sub would not be an option for you, I don't think. You were on 20-25 mgs of hydro(lortab) and just quit. You should try going to 10-15 mgs a day staying there for a week. Then go to 5-10mgs for a week, then stop. Don't beat yourself up about taking a pill. It happens to the best of us. I don't think sub is the answer for you but that's just my opinion. You can do it if I can... Just wean down a little more and get some OTC medications to help ease the discomfort. The pain will go away and not last forever.I am telling you.
Hot bathes
Comtrex
Benadryl
Motrin
B-12
Muti-viatmins
Get prepared and try again...... You CAN get through this. I promise...I would bet anything you can do it without sub but that's just my thoughts!!. Rae

Yeah, what Rae said, try to wean and stock up on otc stuff, it helps quite a bit. Just dont throw in the towel and go back to where you were, your still making some progress.

camels in a caravan kneel down in the evening and the camel-driver unload their burdens. in the morning, the camels kneel down again, and the camel-driver put the burdens back on. it's the same with prayer: we get on our knees to unload at night, and in the morning we get on our knees again. God gives us just the load we are able to carry that day. (dr. bob)
just wondering dear jz - ever thought about quieting your mind, getting on you knees and asking the God of your understanding for a little more willingness? of course you feel badly - you're ridding your body of the toxins you have put in it for quite some time. my sponsor said to me once, "sammy, how about inspecting what you are expecting." yeah, yeah, yeah, i know - "bulls$it - i don't want to sit around and think about what i need to do - especially in the throes of detox! God, grant me some relief/help!"
many, many, many 24 hours, after a lot of pain, a lot of consequences that this malady of addiction brings us is that what we really have is a daily reprieve contingent on the maintenance of our spiritual condition.
my thoughts and prayers and prayers are with you during this difficult but doable time in your journey, jz.
