Hi. My name is Alice and I posted on this subject a while back. Thanks for all your insight and support. I have weaned myself from perc's to darvocet and now down to 1/2 ultram pill which I haven't yet taken today. I am using ambien to sleep at night. No worries there I hate to be tired. Just can't deal with my skin crawing at night. Just wanted to get that out there. Appreciate any support. I am 44 years old married with two girls. Work part time. Function quite well with the drugs. W/O??? Anyway I was wondering how Diane is doing? Have been following her struggle? Thanks.
good for you, real good job. u probably know this, but i'm gonnasay it anyway, careful with those ambians. but good for you, coming up with a successful stratagy,planning it, preparing yourself, planning it, & achieving it. quite an accomplishment.
Thanks for your support! I made it thru the night. Did take an ambien. From past experience I'll get rid of them after about two more nights. When I w/d I fall asleep and then wake up suddenly and it feels like my skin is crawling and I start jumping out of my skin. Thankfully I didn't have that last night but I would have had it not been for the ambien. Thanks for the tip though. I know that for an addict it's all the same. I stopped drinking about 18 years ago and it became for me something that "is out of the question". Now I am trying to make the pain pills "out of the question" too. I consider alcohol to be poison for me. Now I have to get to where I realize that the pain pills are poison. With the help of God I will. Have a great day! Alice
