Long story short I have been on painkilllers for a good five years straight. I had been taking about 40mg oxy a day for the past six months, and also about 30-50mg IR oxycodone when not taking the oxycontin. I am on day seven today of withdrawals and am having the worst time and need some help.

To help with the withdrawals I started taking kratom which helped about 80% of the withdrawals. I came down with the flu on day two and had a really bad fever, and still do four days later. Not to mention I started my "time of the month" On about the fifth day I took 2g of kratom in capsule about two to three times in capsule form and I am not kidding, I started hallucinating.. I was so freaked out it caused me to have a panic attack. Thank god I have xanax to help calm me down. So no more Kratom..

The worst part is that my brain feels all fuzzy and crazy. Much like I felt when I went cold turkey off Effexor about four years ago. I just want to escape it and I don't know how. I feel like I am being held captive in my own body. I have been stuck in my bed for the past five days and it's driving me crazy. Has anyone else had the weird brain confusion? I just feel so helpless..
 
I would also like to add I suffer from bad anxiety which has been magnified by the withdrawal. Does anyone have any suggestion as to what can help with that? I plan to exercise when I can but would love to find a natural remedy to help. I don't normally take xanax, I have just been using it during this process.
