have been using oxycodone for almost a year now, and i really want to stop using. have currently been taking about 90mg of roxycodone daily. i've tried stopping multiple times cold turkey, but haven't had success. i can't afford to miss a day of work or college, yet the withdrawals have left me bedridden, causing me to give up.
i've finally gotten to the point where i can admit i have an addiction, and that i cannot stop on my own. i'm not looking to get on subs or anything like that, but i've heard that clonidine and benzos are helpful during wds. (anything to get me through the first weeks...)
my usual doctor is a relative, and i do not feel comfortable sharing this information with them. how do i pick a doctor to speak to? and most important, what do i say once i'm there? i've never been in this sort of situation and i'm panicking.
any help is much appreciated.
