Why am I not in WD..

[ethechamp]

I recently tried to kick a bad diladid habit which i ended up getting down to one a day and recently a half a day for the past 4 days (IVing) now I took my last dose yesterday at 1pm now almost at the 30 hour make and I dont feel too bad just fatigue yawning eyes tearing etc. My question is I have to start work in 3 days will I be able to function? And am I just at the beginning? Reason I ask is because ive kicked a habit a lot worse awhile ago with higher dose and I was feeling like hell by now. Any input would be great just stressing about everything

Nice work!! Did you take any meds to help you do this? If not your fully in the clear and things will only get better physically.

Do you have a plan to address the psychological addiction?

I have a good support system and my family is aware of it. Right now I am feeling a little chills and like I said fatigue tears etc but no runs yet or nausea I have immodium on deck just in case but no meds to help me just going to get some weed now to help if they start getting bad just have a feeling they might hit me hard later but by then ill be at 36hours so I really dont know. Stressing out

The Imodium is an opiate. I wouldn't stress, your just going to need to taper that. Many people find they can do this easier then other opiates because it provides no pleasure.


If your at a safe dose on the lope then I would just drop your dose a comfortable level once every seven or eight days. This should swing you off comfortably. :D

Addiction is quite the mind fuck. You may wish to broden your attack against it. Most people focus on the physical dependence aspect. In the end that ends up being the "easy" part.
