Good Morning
I'm 7 days into a codeine withdrawal (CT) and I'm having a rough time this morning. I haven't had much sleep and I can't seem to stop crying. I am trying to do this without further medication although I did try using some OTC sleep aids the first few nights but as they only allowed me an hour or twos sleep and left me feeling medicated but not any better I stopped them. I started taking codeine again just over a year ago after been free of them for a few years as a coping mechanism after losing my Dad, my Mum then passed away pretty soon after so its been a little harsh. I have no intention of using, I'm not even slightly tempted but I literally have no support ATM, since losing my Dad I've isolated myself to the point that I barely speak to anyone. I suppose I'm just looking for a little reassurance that this level of emotion and crappy feeling isn't going to last forever.
Thank you in advance.
