confused

[VIKETIME]

i've been takin 8-10 hydrocodone pills every day (4-5 in the morning and 4-5 after school) for about the past 3 months. also in there i have done some oxy, tramadol, just recently morphine. i tried to stop for a few days (as i finally ran out of both pills and money) and it sucked big time. i feel so different i get sick to my stomach and i feel so zoned out i can't seem to get a grip back on reality. one minute im talking to someone then i wonder if they're real and if im real, i can remember things that have happened but now everything just seems so different. im wondering if this has happened to anyone else who experimented with opiates or any other drug?

Well the stomach thing is classic withdraw from opiates and the disreallity thing is a little rarer but still quite commen when dealing with drug withdraw. Its seems you mightalso be going through alot of depersonalzation(not feeling like yourself)if you keep not taking them. I'm sure you've already heard but your liver is going through hell from theasprin. Opiates withdraw can get to a point were your in 24/7 pain from it. I take this as a sign and at least take a break. If not use cold filteration id you dont already do it. Good luck and Merry Christmas

hey man, withdrawl from opiates can suck balls. But you will survive it, it will make you feel like you are "jumping out of your skin" and all sorts of other things you never thought you'd feel. But you can do it if you really want and it wont kill you, you may feel like you want to die, but you'll survive it. to ease some of the craziness you could take some benzo's but be careful with those as well, withdrawl from benzo addiction can kill you. Be safe man and good luck


peace

I tell Ya get some kratom to help. It WILL help. And use ultram (tramadol) as a stepping stone. Just don't Compensate by taking tons of ultram.


If you can talk to your doctor about it, Id get some clonide for the sweats and stuff. And benzos will help too.


If you quit now it should not be all, that bad. Don't get me wrong It WILL SUCK, and pretty bad. But It will pass and you will start to feel better. It is going to take a while to get over the crappy mood though. Your brain is used to getting 5-6 happy pills a day.


And now your brain is going WHERE ARE MY HAPPY PILLS, I WANT HAPPY PILLS, GIVE ME HAPPY PILLS you get the Idea.


Good luck


I'm rooting for ya.

Aspirin does not. Acetominophine is generic tylenol and above 4g per day is toxic to you liver. If you go through withdrawls in a hospital setting and are recognized as a habitual drug user they might give you aspirin for the pain (not acetominophine). There is something called cold water distraction which will take the acetominophine out of the hydrocodone so you dramnatically decrease the damage to your liver. In my opinion, if you have to do that everyday you need to get a different prescription from your doc or ask yourself if you have a problem. I think anything in moderation might be good. I've done things everyday as well-not quite asgood, for me anyway.</TD></TR>

Don't you mean 'cold water extraction' !?!

But you're right, acetominiphine, paracetomol in Briton, is a nasty drug in high doses, and is an active ingredient in a lot of over the counter and prescription painkillers, so be careful kittlings! It can be very easy to do a lot of damage to your liver without realising it, and you can't survive without your liver, neither can you get a new one!
