Here I go.....S**T

Thanks simco. Today wasn't bad either. Went trout fishing in the Adirondak mtns. A spot that has been my most serene place in the world that I know of. Spent with my mom and dad. I saw my primary dr who has perscribed me some valium and clonodine and zofran. Thank god for my comfort meds In the meantime. I think. Had trouble sleeping last night. Nothing seemed to work. Ativan, Ny-quil and melatonin. Ended up taking one of my wifes extended release xanax. Chewed it then swallowed it. Well I think that is why I was seeing double for half the day. Not capable of driving for sure. The same car was in the passing lane and driving lane. All in all at 81hrs I am feeling so much more better that I thought I would. Lovin life, lovin family
 
That's amazing. :) That's how I felt after I quit opiates too but I took ibogaine to stop so I had that going for me. You're doing it on your own. :)
 
Kawboy--what a great environment for you to detox in! Fishing, family, Harley, comfort meds...you're doing it right. Keep it up! :)
 
It has been close to 8 days and I have a few questions. I have felt great the last 2 days, probably because of the lopermide and gabapentin. I have had gaba for a couple yrs now looking for an alternative for the oxycodone. My questions are this, 1. does the lope actually halp get you through, or does it just postpone things and 2. I have had no cravings at all really, just a twinge at times that I would usually take them. Morning, before a shower and when my wife got home from work. Keep in mind I would only take around 75mg a day but it did go on for 4 yrs. after a snowmobile wreck. I am just trying to look forward. This past sat sucked. I cried a ton and tried to isolate myself. Sunday and today have been good. The thing is sat I didn't take the lop cause I needed to "cleanse".

Pretty sure lope ain't gonna postpone anything TO MUCH man. Just rapidly drop it or stAy on very low doses. But I'd drop it, I mean you might as well see where your bowels are at anyway and get the last tiny bits out the system if you know what I mean.

Hope your doing well. Im about to hit 72hr mark and usually day 3-4 are the worst for me. Gotta go to work in 6 hours on no sleep the last few days but oh well.

Take pride in your clean time, if it was so easy everyone would do it, jails would be almost non existant, and families would have many loved ones back for much more time

Thanks nygiants and I hope it gets easier for you! You are doing well! I have passed day 8 now and the only real bother at this point is the cravings are kicking me in the n**s. Any magic remedy for that? About to clean my garage and hit my weight bench and see how that feels but I honestly tore things appart this am looking for something. Pointless.
 
Well. Here I am at 30 days!! Feeling pretty good about things. I think paws gets me now and then but not bad. I have been on zoloft for 7 yrs and gaba for 4 yrs. Still taking both and I am pretty sure thats why I quit high and dry, never looked back and have no craving what-so-ever!! So I am checking in to say I DID IT!! It is so doable. Thanks for everyone's support!! Will check back at day 60
