Hi Havehope ,
I agree with others that CT is brutal and painful but it’s definitely the fastest way to come off them . I used to abuse 30mg codeine , solpadeine max,Nurofen plus and did cold turkey last year ( 1 year today to be exact ????) . Tapering never worked for me as I was not disciplined enough and would take a week’s worth in 2 days .If you decide to go CT i would recommend getting some sleeping tablets as day 4+ is when you’re at your worst . Restless legs and lack of sleep were the worst for a lot of people on here .I Didn’t believe I could get passed day 4 -5 but you find the inner strength and you just take one day/hour at a time . It’s hard but doable . Physical symptoms ease off quickly enough but then the mental struggle begins and that takes longer to settle . CBD oil might be a good option to try as well. Whatever you decide to do we can help you through it ????
