Hi Eva and all in the group,

How are you? How many days clean are you now? Please can people arm me with as many tips as possible. I have an almost 3 year old and 5 months old at home with no family support and husband works full time.

I take dihydracodeine and have taken opiates for 4 years following a knee reconstruction, it is still problematic and the surgery in most parts has failed. I also have bilateral hip pain and arthritis in my neck and spine. I am in a lot of pain but do not want to be a slave to opiates any longer. What do I do? I think cold turkey would suite me better as I don’t trust myself to taper. What a mess. I am so disappointed with myself. I want to fully enjoy life again with out the need to be heavily medicated.

I have read through your conversations and commend you all. So much strength!
