It's ok we all slip up. Cart when you say you've been shit are you just referring to the taper or how you're feeling ? Why do you feel you slipped up? Do you want to get back on track? Sorry not judging or lecturing you just trying to understand where you're at n what you want. Here if you need to talk xxxx whosa glad you're not having withdrawals x has anyone heard how Jade is doing n wcote hows your back?

This is ace news - you're at day 5! Well done you. Have you tried tonic water or bananas for the restless legs? Or looked into foods with vitamins B6 n B12 as Shamble mentioned above? Bananas will also stop any runs (you're may not get the runs now you're at day 5 but it isn't unheard of). What's your appetite like? Maybe try a hot bath n some calming music before bed. Keep going. We're rooting for ya!
Evey xxxx
 
Hi DAY 6! :-) i had an okay night last night got about 5 hours sleep. Not sure if it was just because i was completely exhausted but im happy to evan get that :-) ive bought lots of bananas yesterday + other fruit im not eating alot and have lost lots of weight but yesterday i managed some blueberries a banana and half a sandwhich. Im still taking all my vitamins and highlands restless legs. This has been the hardest thing ive had to do. The restless legs hopefully will get better in time. Thanks for all the support! Ive got a few days off work now so i can just chill out :-) X
 
I'm sorry how I acted over this thread. Of course it's for everyone. I haven't been myself lately. I'll just put people I disagree with on ignore n leave it be. I don't want to stop someone helping someone or receiving help n I wasn't thinking. I was thinking how rude the person had been n was being selfish. I'm truly sorry about it x

No need to apologise, just keep on ignoring the people you don't feel you need in your (virtual) life and all is well :) We're a very forgiving forum.
 
Brilliant, Jade n good thinking with the blueberries n banana. The rls will ease off soon you're on day 6! You're now an inspiration to others wanting to beat codeine addiction. Thanks for letting us know how you're doing.

Snolly, thanks - the moderaters here are very nice n caring people :)

You're doing well, good luck all the best :)
 
Yup. Day six is virtually home and dry for withdrawing from just about any opiate/opioid (aside from the really long-acting ones like methadone - that's a month minimum and can get to fuck, it amazes me anybody can stick a methadone cluck but just shows that any withdrawal is doable if you really want it). I always found that RLS was the last of the really annoying physical symptoms to fade out. Maybe a few stray chills and hot flushes but by day six it's more or less all done - the fat lady should be singing at Chez Jade any time now. One more night and I reckon you'll wake up feeling clucked. It's odd but you really do feel different on the day that it's finally over I always find. Not just physically, I mean, don't know quite what it is but you feel free somehow. I always did anyway.

Good luck for the final push - and enjoy the bananas :D
 
Hey guys, officially one week today clean! My legs dont feel to bad today hopefully that is a sign there getting better i hope it is. It feels Weird to not be full of codeine all day long but a good weird. Thanks to shambles and evey for the support it really has give me a boost. :-) i was feeling a bit down with the rls but speaking to you guys makes me carry on. Hope everyone is well ill Write tomorrow and let you all know what day 7 has been like :-) i think all the vitamins and hot baths are working. X
 
No reason you can't get yer shiny One Week badge that only people who post their results in this thread definitely receive. It's made of gold and diamonds and chocolate and beer and pies and stuff. You'd like it.

There's no point trying to make people quit when they're not ready cos it just don't work, but whenever you are ready... :)
 
Oh the joys. I'm having someone on suboxone thread other drugs saying i shouldnt be on BL cause i only had a codeine addiction n basically mocking me for being on suboxone. Because I showed concern when he relapsed, was worried n tried to give advice well no more.
 
Just ignore the cunt.

It works for you, so they are chatting utter shit. No matter you view on it being OTT cfor a codeine habit. Its helping you! So fucked em,
 
Exactly. To get on bupe maintanence you need to go through (usually) your GP, a consultant/specialist and have regular appointments with a key worker. It's not like you can just blag it without them noticing that you were "only" on codeine. Medical advice trumps internet bitching every time. As, wcote says if people don't approve of what your doctors and key workers think is best for you then fuck 'em.
 
Thanks. Still feel a bit upset when I read his comments humiliating me. I wish I was someone who didn't care what anyone thinks but I do. It has taken me literally months to stop being defensive n listen to them on other drugs suboxone megathread. How could he be so hateful when I tried to help him n was worried about him? Did I really deserve that?
