Well i took only one pill yesterday and i find myself obsessing about just taking two more all the time. I have 5 lortab 7.5 left and it feels like the end of my "fun" life and back to boring life. I know that is not true but right now it feels that way. Hubby and i are leaving the 4 kids with my mom tonight and going to a hotel so that he can interview in the morning with a company in ohio. Normally i would be so excited to get away but i am just worried about if i will have a good time without my normal supply. I also am having terrible stopmach cramps today. YUCK. Any good meds to take with me tonight to alleviate a little of the withdrawals???? I have benadryl, requip which i haerad can be useful. and ativan for panic that i have occasionally. Also of course i have advil and what not.
Get some imodium. You'll need it. Dump the ativan if you aren't addicted to it yet. The withdrawal from it is worse than opiates. When I got clean I thought my life was going to be over. I am also an alcoholic and was giving up drinking also. I thought my fun was over forever and I would have nothing to do and never have a happy moment again. I was so wrong. My life is much better than it was on pills or booze. I don't have to count pills or wonder if my pills will last till someone goes to a doctor. I don't shake when I wake up. I don't get aches and pains if I don't take my pills. My energy level is back to normal. Think about it. Are you really having fun on pills? Is your life so wonderful that each day is a new adventure or is it gloomy and dark and depressing because of the pills? A new life is waiting for you if you want it better than you could ever imagine.
