I have abused opiates for two years. Specifically our little blue 30 friends and there green grey red and white family. As well as 15 er morph. Very recently I decided just to say fuck it I'm done looking done going to the dr. I'm just done period. I got down to taking about 45 mg of the oxy a day ( would normally take anywhere from 45 to 100). And took the morphine er about 3 times the last two days being off the oxy just cause I did feel some weird effects. All in my head. But I'm on day 4 without anything and either withdrawl is not that bad or I don't withdrawl. My legs hurt I'm more emotional than I have been I actually cried for the first time in forever my stomache is maybe moldy upset no more worse than like eating something that doesn't agree with you. But other than that I'm pretty good shoveled my driveway full of snow went to the store playing video games. I don't understand everyone on here acts like withdrawl Is worse than cancer. I'm sure it's bad I know it's bad. But is it possible i just really don't? I'm a little soar. Idk I just don't really feel like I'm dying. I want the drug here and there. But I know in order for me to move on with my life I just simply have to say no. And I would vather be happy then high I think i finally figured that out ( hints the crying). Idk it's super weird.

Well, bad withdrawals are pretty awful and you can't really blame people for complaining about them. Sounds like yours are just very mild...some people are just lucky that way and don't experience WDs as strongly as others. Just consider yourself lucky 
PS. Congrats on deciding to quit!

Ps: the first day I came off the oxy. My body did do some weird stuff only lasted about two days. Elevated pulse skipping heart beat. And would have killed a baby mentally for a pill. But after 33 to 36 hours most went straight away puked twice. But I can't decided weather or not that was do to vitamins on an empty stomache.
I am not trying to be insensitive. I know they are bad. Mainly the reason I didn't quit sooner is from reading about them and they scared the shit out of me. And my gd had them bad. I am sorry for saying it insensitively. I know there not to be takin lightly. I'm just perplexed because I was a every day user for 2 and a half years. Never missed a day.

You will feel differently when it's the 17:th time you are going through it. Or try quitting high dose methadone cold turkey. But yes, there are alot things worse than opiate withdrawal, GABAergic withdrawals are 10 times worse.

When you're really, truly, and completely ready to quit for good, the withdrawals aren't as bad. When you're sick and fiending only because you can't score it feels way worse because your head isn't in it. That being said, everyone's bodies are different. Everyone reacts differents to drugs and to withdrawaling from drugs. It is possible you don't get as severe of effects as some people, but it could be you just don't mind them. You were only using for two years which is plenty of time to withdrawal but a lot of people use for longer at higher dosages before deciding to clean up. You also did a bit of a taper by taking the morphine. But whatever the reason you're not feeling like death, count your blessings and stay off the shit for good.

As others have said, each time you try to quit the 'rattle' is worse than the last time, so count yourself lucky but bear in mind, for me the withdrawals usually peaked between days 4-10 so you may not yet be out the woods..

I did H for 8 months straight in college. I quit CT when I found my girl with the dealer. No withdrawal at all. Been playing with pills for about 2 years now. Every time I'm out, I'm sick, and each time has been worse and worse... Congrats, and don't go back!
You got lucky you must be pretty resistant to the side effects of the opiates, try benzo w/d tho and then try to say the same things about that.

First off, your intake is not very much... Do 300mg plus of oxymorphone or hydromorphone, oxycodone and H for years, then tell us about with-drawls... Actually don't! Good job getting this out of your life! You have made a great decision and should be proud of yourself!
Yeah, glen.. and he just slipped away unnoticed..
Actually for me when i was really, truly, and completely ready to quit for good, the withdraws were HELL.. but i made it through ten days in the fire and four and a half months hanging out near that hell fire.. But, i feel better now every second than i thought i did then. came off 150mgpd methadone, 260mgpd roxy, .5-1 g exTARrs, and 6 mgpd xanax with a five week taper and clonidine, fk that ball and chain!!

Really? Maybe I phrased it wrong...I mean I know you can't ease the physical withdrawals just by brain power but I always felt like the mental part was what eventually wore me down, and when I didn't want to be sick in the first place it damn near drove me crazy. When I checked myself into inpatient the withdrawals were terrible, I was puking and sweating and punching the door just to try and feel a pain I could control. But knowing I wanted this for me made the mental anguish much more bearable. Anyways, congrats on getting clean

Well done! I know just how hard it can be as I'm currently withdrawing from a heavy Benzo/Oxy habit (Albeit not a daily habit) which leads me onto....
The severe physical withdrawals usually subside after so many weeks and then it's the following months where the mental addiction trips people up.Really?

DUDE, You're STILL ON OPIATES! You CUT DOWN. You didnt QUIT. QUIT cold turkey, then see if you have the ability to even log on here and write a full sentence. There is also a HECK of a lot of other factors. I was using heroin 10x/day for 20 yrs. My withdrawls were definitely significant. There's body chemistry, pain tolerance, etc. Your post is flawed in SO MANY ways. Anyway, good job cutting down. You're on your way.

^He said he was on day 4 of not having any opioids at all.
Ok I get the point. I felt more depression than anything. Is 45 mg a low dose. I felt bad for like 5 days then just Linda normal I did use 15 mg er morphine for three days after I quit the oxy. I think that stopped me from shitting my guts out. However I did get sick once. I'm not sure but I think the helped. Then I jumped off them with no ill effects compared too when I was taking them like hot and cold and mild stomache pains. Idk maybe it was a low dose but two years use??? I was so scared the whole time to quit because of the wd. I know I never ever want to ever touch that shut again and my life now is becoming hard because I'm alive for the first time in two years. I'm just letting everyone know what I did. Cause it might help them. A 15 mg er morphine is pathetic alone but it might help a little it did for me and when I stopped it. I pretty much snapped back to normal. I would say the worst thing I got was depression and high pulse and high Bp. Mild anxiety I would compare what I went through a 4 day panic attack I also ate some Valium here and there to sleep. What I'm saying is I didn't go trough what I that I was going to go through. So maybe one person will read this post and find hope.
Ps do withdrawals creep up and hit you are slowly come on? I felt like cravi ga and depression the body pain mildly idk maybe I'm just a freak pod nature my best friend stopped too and he is in he'll I just don't get it?

If it's now been almost a week without any opioids and you feel fine I would say you are an extremely lucky person and should rejoice in how lucky you are, and remember that you may not be so lucky in the future - this doesn't mean withdrawals will always be this easy for you (so keep that in mind and don't go back to using). I don't think you will get withdrawals that come on or worsen after this point, oxy or morphine withdrawal normally peaks within a few days of not having any.
