I've been on oxycodone for about 2 years now. I started doing these when i was 16 and i wasn't prescribed i just had/have a very steady supply and for beyond too cheap. I decided last Wednesday March 24th i was going to get off of these for good and never go back because every since i got hook on them and needed them everyday they've just created too many problems for me. To be honest ruined my life. I lost everyone, i stole, lied and hurt alot of people around me for these little pills i wrapped my life round and lived for. We'll i went to get help on Thursday March 25th. I went to my doctor and told him what was going on. I tried to get into a few different rehabs but all of the ones in my area had no room until April 7th. I can't go to a suboxone clinic because of insurance reasons. I explained all this to my doctor, my doctor being a very close family friend understood that i couldn't get help until the 7th. To keep me from withdrawals/ pain and to keep my addiction of the street my doctor prescribed me 60 mg OxyContin. Something that would have been a dream come true months ago,(getting a script of 60s with no medical pain problems at all,besides withdrawals) is now a living nightmare. I know i will overcome this and get clean. It's just going to be so hard.
Good luck to you man. I know there some other people going through this shit on here, so hopefully you guys can make it through together.
My doc. tried to wean me off oxys last year. Basically a six week schedule, a little at a time. I wasn't ready though. I've been cold turkey for 3 weeks now and I'm still here. It's been a BITCH but it's the only way I can do it. I wish you luck my friend. You can do this but continue being honest with your doctor. If he gave me Oxycontin I'd be in heaven too! Just be careful.
ye good luck man, slowly you can taper down and do it. i tapered myself down from 3-4 80s a day and am now about 3 months clean from opis. its a bit tough but if you wait it out, you can do it.
I really feel for you dude and I hope you make it. Clean life is better than addicted life, at least for me. I just got clean and have been able to stay clean for a few weeks now. Tapering down really helped to ease the withdrawls, but it takes a lot of willpower to decide not to get high. What helped me a lot was to only take 20-40mg of OC when I started to get the jitters/sweats/agitation. I was able to cut down a lot that way. Stay strong willed and keep telling yourself things will get better after the initial s**t storm. Things eventually even out and you will start to feel better. Good luck to you.
