Hey Apple and welcome to the forum! ????
Well done on stopping the higher dose of codeine. It sounds to me that you are trying to taper at the moment, is that right?
Withdrawals are hard to begin with. The first few weeks are the toughest. I’d suggest, like Maggie told me, that you take a week or so off work or any other arrangements that you have, so that you can solely focus on this.
There’s no need to be worried at all. To begin with, you are going to feel like your body can’t survive without the drug, but I absolutely assure you, it can. It might seem like a long process but it’s one that is definitely worth it. Your body and brain has come to rely on the codeine to function, so all of that has to be repaired, but it DOES repair. I can promise you that much.
Keep going, keep tapering and take your life back because you’ll never look back once you have ????
And remember, you’re not alone.
