today im going cold turkey from oxy,

spent over 1 year on over 400mgs a day and up 2, 900mgs a day.

not feeling to great here and now.

gonna take a few sleeping tablets.

will i die from this i feel kinda rotten
 
You won't die but I won't sugar coat it for you, the next week is gonna be hell. Good luck man.
 
omg a week ? i thought it was 1 day..

is there any thing i can do, get drunk or anything like that to help
 
I'm hardly the expert on WD's here but yeah, about a week. There are tons of threads (mostly in Other Drugs) on things that will help. None of them work very well, but they do help some.
 
not likely to die, though your definitely going to feel like it and at those doses the typical wds aids become far less effective and the options are fewer. Finding some benzos should be your highest priority, followed by the best sleep aid you can get your hands on. Immoduim is likely going to be your new bff for the next several days. Kickin from doses that high is going to more hellish in the beginning as it's going to take longer for that much oxy to leave your system. I'd start drinking water and get use to the idea that the john is going to be your other bff for the near future. If you happen to have any sub to help you kick, your only begging for precipitated wds if you don't wait at the very least several days for the oxy to get released from your body. Hopefully you have prepaired yourself with some forms of detox meds before starting this kick. Your not doomed to fail because of the size of the habit, it just may be a little longer than those of that have kicked from a lower amount. I'm not sure what your situation is and how prepared you are going into this. Just be smart about it, if your really starting to suffer, much more so than the typicl hell that is cold turkey, get too an Er if your BP reaches dangerous levels.
In fact, it couldn't hurt to seriously consider getting through it much easier and far sfer with the assistance of a medical detox, most cities have free programs funded by various churches, health and community services. I've seen a few people kick from similar size doses,yeah it took a while longer, and it hurt for a good 5-6 days, but it's not impossible. If your losing fluids from every single orffice possible, hydration is going to become critically important. Hopefully you have what you need to induce a long period of sleep, thats about all I can suggest. There's always more people kickin in the TDS, you'll get more suggestions over there. Good luck.

Actually the first 3 days are the toughest, with #2 being a walk through hell.:)

Good luck and congrats., I am going to have to do it again, soon.

I wouldn't advise it. God I couldn't bare a hangover on top of WDs.

Makes me shiver to think about it.
 
One more thing,

As you will be unable to do anything for the first 3 days, you need to keep your mind busy. I come here, go to YouTube and watch music videos, etc. Just laying in the bed, watching the second hand move is just not an option. Keep that mind busy and off the fact that you feel so shitty.
 
alright guys,

my msrs suprized with with 4 x20mg capsule oxy.

so i guess im starting 2 morrow mayb
 
very much appreciated the talks. im guna sit in bed and stare at that oxy my girl just gave me
 
btw the way im an alcoholic too so i thinks its best if i keep drinking, or else ill get withdrawals from that too.

i had called up for rehab in australia but they cant get me in untill like next monday, just cruious how do people like H user's get through without wioth draawing all the time because they have no money, is this when they start doing crimes ? or is there a medication they take when they cant get H

Nope, Your fixing to delay the WDs, if you haven't already. Why? Because that's what I would do. You just can't go through WDs if you have anything around. Period.

she hid them from me, and got upset because i was sick
 
I've been through that many times and let me tell you, even after a week you will not be the same. The best thing you can do is taper off them slowly. If that's not possible, get some xanax or valium, klonopin to take the edge off. The worst part of it is the skin crawling and anxiety.
 
a few codeine/APAP for a week will halp a tiny tiny tiny bit... say 4 the first and second day 3 the third and fourth day, then 2 tabs then 1 tab, then 0,nada, niete, nothing, rien... it will be exremely tough but if you have the willpower and want to get it don in a couple of wweeks, you'll feel shit for a few weeks thenn the physical W/D is over
or
you can go on sub detox which will take considerably longer
or
methadone detox which takes even longer (i chose this route, pretty hellish towards the end, but 100 times easier than quitting smoking lol for me at least)
 
That is one hefty habit, you are in for a week of pure hell......I would highly recommend a taper to a much lower dose first, or get some suboxone.
 
lol, go get a ton of immodium.

take whatever oxy you need today.

then get up in the middle of the night and dose about 30 mg of immodium...you should feel much better in the am...if not take another dose.

this will make you feel WAY better.

after a few days, slowly cut back with it

I'd imagine H users are no different than an oxy user. Never touched the H, but in my personal 8 year oxy nightmare,I'd go threw wds all the time, until the next script, rinse and repeat. Even having suboxone, you have to be sick before it will work. There is no way to avoid wds. H users are no different, let your imagination answer what happens when some of the most desperate and strung out, run out of money and are facing wds. It's not limited to H users. I knew a young mother that would blow her dealer and his friends for a few viks. Unbelievable.

Rehab sounds like a good plan. Those high doses would make it tough to get through alone, having to keep drinking to avoid the DTs would really make you feel like ass while kicking. But your right, you definitely don't want to go through alcohol wds, that shit can kill you depending on how much and how long you've drank. You'll get some comfort meds in rehab, here you go to detox, prior to admission to rehab. If it's the same over there, that's where you'll go through the worst of it. I'd imagine you'd be getting heavily sedated and might be able to sleep thru the roughest part. I know a few people that went to detox and were really well medicated and were up and about on the second day and experienced minimal discomfort, they had heavy habits as well. Obvious some detoxes are better than others. Most people say the first week in rehab is tough, but it it's gets better aftter that.
