Well its the morning of day 5. If I make it today it will be 3 days without ANY pills. Up side is I am getting clean. Down side is my mine races and I sometimes just get off the couch and walk in circles lost like I am missing something. I have had about 3 hours of sleep in the last 2 days and my eyes hurt. After the first day when I went with out any pills I thought hell why not try it again, that was yesterday. Man did that suck. Cold turkey is hard. This being day three I suppose will not be much different. I just want to sleep but my mind and my body wont let me. They are not used to going to sleep with out a cocktail of drugs. I guess after being up so long though they will give in and hey, maybe I can sleep day 6 past.
Hi Sketcher,
Congratulations -- making it to Day 3 is tremendous. Day 3 was by far the worst for me when I went c/t off hydro and a barbiturate. The physical symptoms cleared up rapidly after that....except the sleep problems, they persisted for a bit longer. But even the sleeplessness improved. Hang in and keep up the great work -- M.

sketcher, will you do us a favor? Please go see a dr...they have things as simple as catapress patches that will help...clonadine (to help the bp and automatic nervous system..the running legs..etc..) and that is a dangerous combo...
The days you made are huge...but that is a dangerous mix. I couldn't have done it alone..so you will need some support..I had no idea benzos were that dangerous to detox off of until I went to treatment..
Kiwi, will you call my dr and tell him that vicoden and zanax are a bad mix...lol..
