Help with opiate withdrawal symptoms!!!?
Hey everybody, I am recovering from an opiate addiction. Wow, thats the first time I've admitted this.. I work in healthcare, so I know how to manage my opiate withdrawal symptoms aches, sweats, insomnia, etc . I guess what I really need is to hear from somebody out there in the world that has gone through this before that will tell me.. YES, IT WILL BE OK, I'VE BEATEN THIS MONSTER AND SO CAN YOU . I get my medicine the legal way, through my physician, but I don't take the medicine as prescribed. What should last me two months only lasts me a month or less. I would take the pills to feel happy, energetic, hopeful, and my recreational use over time turned into a rip roaring physical dependancy. Whenever I was going to be around people to have a good time, I would take the pill s to feel happy and be a fun person to be around. Now I feel that I can't enjoy life anymore without the meds...will the cravings ever go away?
