November 24, 2021 at 10:26 am in reply to: Day 18 cold turkey from codeine and starting to feel like myself #25807betterlifeParticipantHi overlt123,
Good luck on your journey, you’ve done it once and you can do it again. Amazing that you’ve managed managed get out. I’m on day 16 and it’s only been the last few days where I’ve been able to get up in a morning. Were all here to support you.
Rach it’s day 8 with still no results, the anexity it’s blowing my mind ????
November 23, 2021 at 8:08 pm in reply to: Day 18 cold turkey from codeine and starting to feel like myself #25798betterlifeParticipantHi Ruby,
It’s amazing that you’ve managed to cut down to just one tablet. You’ve done so much hard work already. I would cut that one tablet out, you will feel crap for a week but your so close already that I would just go for it. Maybe pick a time where you don’t have much on and go for it. You can do it.
My tips would be drink loads and loads of water, have a hot water bottle for the restless legs, take vitamins and keep coming on here as talking helps loads. Theses guys have got me through it
November 23, 2021 at 8:46 am in reply to: Day 18 cold turkey from codeine and starting to feel like myself #25792betterlifeParticipantSleeping beauty your are not selfish one bit so please please don’t ever think that. This is your life too! We all get one life and we have to put ourselves first. So many people spend their whole life putting people before them self’s and its got to stop. Your no 1 I your life and you have to do what’s right for you.
Your partner has to want this and unfortunately if she’s not ready then it won’t Happen. That’s the hard truth. I would have a chat with her, tell her how you feel and your thoughts. Let her know you can’t go on like this and she want her response is.
I really feel for you! It’s a very difficult and sad situation to be in ❤
November 22, 2021 at 7:43 pm in reply to: Day 18 cold turkey from codeine and starting to feel like myself #25774betterlifeParticipantMy Dr gave me them for 6 months no questions asked then stopped. I then got them online, my mums prescription which like yours just went on and on for years and OTC. I wish they would review medication a lot more frequently than half a year.
I know I’m obsessing over these bloods but I know what I’ve put my body through and it really scares me, did you tablets contain paracetamol Maggie xx
November 22, 2021 at 5:09 pm in reply to: Day 18 cold turkey from codeine and starting to feel like myself #25772betterlifeParticipantHey Maggie that’s amazing that you’ve been able to open up and share with your friend. I have have thoughts about the same thing but I don’t think I have a friend that I’m confident won’t tell anyone else and I really don’t want to be spoken about. I wish I did have that kind of friend.
Your friend is so right in the fact that we should be raising awareness. We all took these pills for genuine reasons and it’s spiralled. It really can happen to absolutely anyone which is scary. I really feel like codeine in any strength should be prescribed and not avaliable over the counter. What do you guys think?
Rach I feel so annoyed with myself as most of my anexity and depression is due to not knowing if my bloods are OK but at the same time I’m scared to death to actually call them. My husband had some bloods done last month with the dr and the dr had his results the next day so I’m sure mine will be back, I’m such chicken shit!! I’ve I’ve myself I have to call on Thursday no matter what, I have to face the music.
