Omg ppl please help quick! I'm freaking out like a cat in water! Can anyone tell me what's wrong with me other than my addiction to hydro 10s? There's gotta be something more to it. I'm about to be out of meRAB an I been taking around 20 a day! Its driving me mad. I'm absolutely petrified of w/RAB. Maybe I'm just a scaredy cat weakling but I need someone to talk to so please have mercy I know I sound pitiful. An I feel like I should be tougher but I guess I'm jst not. It makes me sick to say this but my whole life revolves around hydrocodone. I don't want it to be this way but its like I've lost all self control to stop or I guess not wanting enough to stop. I'm affraid of what I could do to myself if I can't get more of my meRAB. Also I've been diagnosed with fibromyalgia and all them ailments that end in "itis". I get 60 ten mgs a month but I take way more then I should and still got about 2 wks till I can call for my next refill. I'm just freaking out and soooo depressed and anxious. Please help with any advice for what I could do to prevent withdrawals. I'm about to run out of meRAB today and don't have the self control to wean or taper right now. I feel posessed by hydrocodone and I'm really scared about my whole situation. Please please help quick.
 
Hi there,

I used to post on this board 3 years ago and I ended up with 92 days clean only to relapse, b/c I thought I could do it on my own. Ha. I quit going to n/a meetings and got an abcessed tooth and it was off to the races from there.

I also was addicted to hydrocodone 10mgs. I was prescribed 4 per day for the past 3 years. I'm now on day 8 of my cold turkey withdrawal and I will tell you that I NEVER want to go through this hell again. It's pure hell. However, the freedom of knowing that I'm not chained to a pill bottle anymore is somewhat miraculous.

I do know that n/a meetings are what is saving my butt and the fact that I got honest with my dr and told him that I was addicted. He wanted to "taper" me but that wasn't going to work, I just had to do it cold turkey.

Do you have family support or anything?? Please hang in there, you need to get off of these pills once and for all, but I will tell you it's not going to be easy. You HAVE to want it.

Take care,

Brandi
