I know this does not fall under pain pills, but the addiction is just as bad. I have been doing 20 pods a day for a few months(well, 21...10 the first dose, 11 about 8-9 hours later).
Has anyone here had any success with tapering off of poppies? is it possible? I am going to do one a day less until i am down to zero. So any information at all would be a great help, thx so much...i really wanna get clean! Also any advice on what suppliments may help(vitamins, etc), thx...
Wow this is a first, poppy pods, I could ask a million questions, but I won't........
I will look into this later for you and see if I can find any info. I know a place, that talks and deals with only poppies. There is some sub info there and some other very bizzare stuff.....I can't promise you anything but you never know.
I can't see how tapering would hurt in anyway......
Have a good night,
Love,
Tina

You have come to the right place. I have quit cold turkey off of pods twice now. I quit back on March 7, 2005 and relapsed 70 days later. I quit again exactly 3 weeks ago today. I have been clean for 21 days. Everything you read about the withdrawal from pain pills will be exactly the same. The first 24 hours isn't too bad, day 2 is tough and day three is the worst. Day 4, things will look a little better and so on. You will experience insomnia, restless legs, diarrhea, chills, sneezing, sweats, etc. I don't want to scare you. This can be done and I have faith you can do this. I was not doing as much as you, but it is difficult to say, depends on the size, amount of opium in the pods, etc. I suggest you taper for a few days, like go down from 20 one day to 10 the next day to 5 the next day, then stop. Get rid of what you have. Throw them away; get them out of your site.
Do you work outside the home? Do you have children?
I want to badly to help you. I don't come here often, but your plea caught my eye.
I will pray for you
God Bless

but what about tapering one a day, over a 21 day period? 21,20,19,18, until I reach 0...
Dear Ftu,
Are you a florist??(lol)
Thats a first for me to...it would make sence that you have the same detox as those on any morphine based drug. You asked about vitamins etc...Apparently and this is what i have read from a guy called Dante on pillsanon. message boards...ther are amino acids thatyou can take, and he explains why your brain is hort of them from long term narcotic use...i thhink the thread is called "Dawn yiou asked for advise" something like that..Its not the long long 125+ thread that was the debate thread. His name youll see on the right is Dante.
Also Immodium liquid is apparetnly a big help with w/d from narcotic like yours..it was made originally as a narcotic but did not get approval so it was marketed as a diarreah medicine. ( makes sence that narcotics are constipating and this is an anti diarreah ( constipating like narcotic)
The book was called the mood cure and there is a web site called moodcure.com
Hope that helps.good luck with your taper.
Hugs,
Elisabeth

Dear FTU,
If you are strong enough to do that kind of taper and it works for you; go for it. I wasn't that disciplined. I had to quit cold turkey. Even if you taper, you will still have withdrawal; I do believe. Perhaps some of the folks on here can give some insight. Believe me the withdrawal is exactly the same as someone taking pain pills from the posts I have read.
If you taper over 5 - 7 days you will be feeling decent by the first of December and by the time the new year rolls around, you will be free of this garbage you putting into your body. Believe me I KNOW!!!!!. Give yourself the best Christmas present, being free from this stuff.
Take care,
I am praying for you.
