I started just like a lot of people. Actually was taking percocet 10’s probably 6 times a day for about a year. I stopped one day and reallllly had zero withdrawals.
Fast forward a year later I had some health issues and was prescribed oxy 15. Started slow breaking in half and a year later I am at 30 mg 4 times a day. I tried to quit 6 months ago, because I had such an easy time with Percs I just figured I didn’t have an addiction problem, some people don’t and I’m 45 years old and have NEVER tried a drug. Never snorted, all taken by mouth. The hardest thing I did before 45 was try pot and hated it. I liked to go out and drink once a month but truly that was the extent of my wild side. Well I think I am now an addict. Scared shitless. I tried 3 times to quit and got to day 2 and went back because I was way unprepared.
I’m ready. Like sooooo ready to be off this crap. I get a rx but it’s not enough and you can’t find the blues anywhere. And I live 10 miles from pasco county!!!!! I hate to be dependent on anything. I don’t like not having control over my life and they control every aspect of my day. I’m looking for some help. Some direction. I don’t want to go to a detox center and I do have a great family to help support me and be there while I do detox. I guess I’m figuring out that there is no easy way, but I sure would be appreciative if someone can help me with an EASIER way. Wether taper, or cold turkey and Medicines that will help. My doctor won’t help as he doesn’t want me off them. I’m lucky to see him for 2 seconds when he comes In. I would appreciate ANY help you all may have.
I’m tired. I’m done. I want to be over this but feeling scared that I won’t ever be normal without them. I certainly do not get high and when I do take more I hate that feeling. But without them I’m a mess. They make me “normal” and that’s it.
thanks everyone I appreciate anything ya got.
