I am so lost and confused right now. I was clean for 3 1/2 years and relapsed in December when my boyfriend whom I love with was in a terrible car accident and prescribed pain pills. I thought I was strong enough to handle it but wasn't. :(. I have been using on and off for the past almost 6 months. I recently stopped for four days and hardly felt any withdrawls. By the way we are abusing his percocet 5mg that he gets from his pain mgmt dr. This past Friday we got 30mg oxycodone and have taken one each fri sat and Sunday. Today is the first day without it. My question is, will I go through physical withdrawals after only using 30 mg each day for the past the past three days?? I have an extremely addictive personality and tell myself I'm going to be so sick without it. It's very mental for me. I NEED to stop because I know what this leads to and my family doesn't know yet so I want to stop while I'm ahead. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I've stopped using immodium ad which works wonders but not sure if I will even need it this time. We have a wedding to go to fri and don't want to be sick :(
 
I'd be willing to bet that you won't experience too much unpleasantness from all this. I'm not sure what your opiate use was like 3 years ago, but you haven't been taking 30mg of oxy per day for months at a time, right? You said on and off use for 6 months and felt nothing. So just three days on 30mg/day doesn't seem so bad. You might be getting afraid because of your past experiences with withdrawal- as you should.
 
Thank you so much for the response "theseeker"! I have been sitting here (literally since I posted this two hours ago) just waiting for SOMEONE to care enough to respond. My boyfriend doesn't understand because he doesn't get withdrawals he says so to be able to talk to anyone is a great feeling. He gets 105 perc 5's every four weeks and snort like 10 total per day together (so that's like 5 each) but its not every day. Since December I use for one or two weeks non stop and then go through withdrawals and get clean for five or six days and then we give in and use again for a week or two. This past time I stopped for about four days. I went through withdrawal but the minute the symptoms went almost away (the 4th day) which was this past Friday we bought the 30mg Roxie's. so because I wasn't COMPLETELY feeling better before I used on Friday again I'm not sure if the withdrawals will kick back in. I'm so sick of this and done! I'm just scared to feel sick. Have to see my family tomorrow and wed (dress shopping for wedding with mom) and then see my boyfriends family Friday and Saturday. If I didn't have the chills and feel like my skin was crawling I would be able to handle withdrawal. I get so cold I feel like an icicle which makes me have to pee literally every two seconds. I've done the Thomas recipe and I've done it with just using immodium ad. I just hate using it because it makes me constipated. But NOTHING and I mean NOTHING I have tried takes the chills/sweats away. Do u know anything over the counter that would help that?

Sometimes it takes a while but people will respond. I think it might be better in Sober Living or Other Drugs--shall I move it for you or would you rather it stayed here?
 
Hey Regretful.. welcome to BL.. congratulations on the three and a half years, quite the accomplishment:).. wouldn't worry about the withdrawal highly unlikely. What do you like so much about the opiates? what do they do for you?
