I have cut down to about 8 pills from 20 which i mentioned in a previous post. I wake up feeling sooo tired and can't get myself going. Any advice for that, when will i feel energy return.
I have been reading so many of your posts and they help me. Some people want to take the pills to get high. to be honest the pills do not make me high, they take the pain from my gums due to terrible dental problems and give be just a bit of energy. Now when should i cut the 8 pillls to less a day. I am so scared of this, but want to be able to function without them. How long should I stay at 8 before i cut down.
Is there anytime soon that I will wake up and feel alive and not drained. I am the only one who knows about my problem. My family is so proud of me and would be shocked if they knew, i have to lick this on my own.
PLEASE PLEASE GIVE ME ADVICE
THANKS

if you are trying to withdraw from pain pills you should gradually go down. you are now at 8. so tomorrow and the next two days go to 7. and follow with the next three at 6.
do you want to do this because you think it's a conflict with your alcoholism? if you are in pain you have a right to take pain pills prescribed exactly as the doctor does. let me know. katherine

Hi Christina - How are you making out?
Yes Christina....after the other night I was wondering that too.
navha,
If you went from 20 pills to 8 that is quite a drop and a shock to your system, your body is wondering where the rest of the pills are. I think you should be very proud of yourself for what you have done so far. This is a really hard thing to quit, so try to take one day at a time. Don't push yourself to hard. Take one day at a time and try to slowly taper as time goes by. I'm not going to lie to you, this is HARD and it took a long time for you to develop this habit and it is going to take time for the physical and the mental part. You are taking huge steps towards your recovery and I wish you the best.
Hang in there,
