Opioids How long does it take to develop a physical dependence to oxycodone?

Okay so I've been taking oxycodone (percocet 5s, and roxi 5s and 10s) and hydrocodone (lortab 10s) for almost 2 years but off and on. im 16. Usually I will take oxys like 6 or 7 times out of the month (and in 20mg - 30mg doses) and hydros the same. but for the last week ive been taking 50-100 mgs of oxy every day. I'm probably gonna take my last of it today and im not gonna have any for probably 2 or 3 weeks. I want to know when i stop taking oxy after today will i have WDs?

Maybe some minor WDs. Your probably gonna feel sluggish, gonna need to shit, and have a little difficultly falling asleep.

You'll probably have WDs for 3-4 days and feel a bit off for some time after that. The first time I starting using habitually, I was on hydrocodone for 2-3 weeks and had some pretty shitty WDs for a few days. Nothing compared to kicking heroin, but no fun at all.

Hopefully you're one of those people that will be fine and not suffer, but if you're anything like me, good luck... it's going to suck.

Yes you most likely will have some WD symptoms but they shouldn't be to terrible. You will probably just feel like shit the next 3-4 days, nothing major. I would suggest eating good and plenty, and Drink a hearty amount of water as this will help flush you system! Maybe workout get a good sweat in if your into that. Get plenty of rest which i'm sure won't be a problem, but I wouldn't stress too much you will be fine it will not be to bad at all!

Just try not to think about it. A large part of withdrawals is the mental part. I know people that had no idea what withdrawals were, and they didn't seem to experience them at first. Once they knew about them and expected them, they got that much worse.
