What do you think I'm withdrawing from?

I've been on and off oxy, perc, and sub for over a year now.

As of late, I'd been on sub (2months) when I decided I wanted to kick it. Well the withdrawals were too unbearable and therefore I used perc to attempt to get over them. So I went 10 days without sub then used a tiny bit (.25mg) then another 7 days without it (.25mg) and then another 10 days (.25mg) So I figure I've not being doing sub for 27 days minus the small amount on the 10th, 17th and 27th day. However...>>
I have been using small amount of perc to help with withdrawal. The most I've done is 30mg 2days in a row. So my question is, am I still withdrawing from sub or is it the percs? Let me know if that was clear and whether or not you need more info, thanks!
 
Most if not all of the sub should be out of your system by now, so the small amount of oxycodone you are taking to help with the withdrawals will just prolong the sickness, in my experience. The amounts you have been using in the past month seem like very little, so the actual physical sickness should be pretty minimal, in my opinion. You are better off trying to abstain from taking any more percocet, as it will just drag the withdrawals out even more. Ifyou are trying to quit opiates entirely, I would stop now and just do your best to get through it. You weren't on subs for very long, so I think the mental aspect of the whole thing will be the biggest barrier to conquer.
