Hey 🙂 From what I know, you would need an awful lot of Imo to affect Withdrawal. I think the temp thing is par for the course with this. Our body’s just simply can’t regulate temperature while attempting to withdraw. I look at it by the lesser of all evils. Hot or diarrhoea. I think I know which I choose !
I am sure it will ease for you very soon. You got this girl!
Yes made up with bro, but it just shows how on edge I have been. Deep breaths and lots of self care I think xx
Hi Mads and Dotty!
Well done on day 8 Mads! That’s huge and wonderful to see you are feeling better. Hot and cold does seem to go on for a bit. Annoying but it should settle for you pretty soon! As will the sleep. I am still struggling with that but have it on good authority it won’t always be this way. Lounging is good at this time!
Dotty that is fabulous that you are managing to stick to 3. You must be a very tough cookie as I doubt I would have the discipline. Kudos to you. So sorry that MG and L are giving you trouble. Its great that you know it will pass.
Today I am learning that all things pass too. Had a bit of a rubbish day after an argument with my brother. All I seem to do is cry today. BUT I do know this is part of the process and it will settle. For now I will just go with it until it departs.
Thanks Mads, such a lovely inspiring message. Much appreciated.
How was your day?Are you still feeling OK and how is the leg pain now?
I am absolutely spent now. Did quite a lot. Well in comparison to what I had been over the last ween and a bit and feel fairly accomplished which is nice.
Dreading the nighttime though with not sleeping and anxiety but hey ho it will pass.
Were you taking a lot of this stuff? I was taking Nurofen plus, lots of it and its evil xx
You made me smile with your positivity. Thank you !
I keep reading and re reading the thread over and over as it gives me so much hope. I need this to be my last ever quit I really do. I don’t want to be an old woman and still battling this thing.
You’re right, better things ARE coming. Thank you xx
Aww that is amazing Mads! So brilliant that you sound like you are through the worst. I am impressed you washed your hair. I hate to admit it but mine hasn’t been done for 3 weeks. Today is the day though 🙂
Today you can start ripping up your carpets !
Have a lovely day xx
Good morning everyone. Mads how are you doing today?
Day 10 and had a rough night with anxiety and insomnia. I put on my big girl pants and went out for a lovely 5 mile walk with my dog and a friend which really helped.
I have made a note in my diary and if I still feel depressed anxious in a month or so, will consider Anti depressants I think. I need to protect this quit with everything I have.
Have a lovely day everyone and keep going !
They lure you in totally! No real leg pain or restless legs but crawling skin, hot and cold, back pain, hip pain, nausea, upset tum, sleep disturbance and awull feelings of doom for a couple of days, absolute and total exhaustion and now I feel quite low generally. BUT I know it will pass. I think most of my physical symptoms have gone now and I am left with exhaustion but can’t sleep very well and sort of depression like a bereavement I suppose. Its not nice 🙂
I took some vitamin b complex and also Berrocca which sort of helped a bit. I am sure you will be feeling much better tomorrow. You have so much to look forward to!
Hey there Mads, welcome. I read the whole thread last weekend too!!! I still dip into it every day for inspiration.
I am on day 9 from a nurofen plus habit of many years with many withdrawals so you are in good company 🙂
You have a fab reason for stopping and I look forward to following your journey xx
Hey Dotty, sorry you had a tough time this week. You know yourself best and what is right for you.
Not too bad here thank you. Day 9 and feeling weepy, tired and kinda meh really but that is par for the course and it could be much worse.
I hope your doctor can at least put your mind at rest xx
Im so sorry Dotty. Chin up love something else will come up xx
Aww that’s great Net! How are you feeling today ? xx
Day 5
Reasons I do not ever want to put my body through this again.
Aching back
Aching hip
Dodgy tummy
Exhaustion – same as yesterday. Legs full of lead
Feelings of doom – not quite as bad as yesterday
Feeling my life is not worth living – trying to look for the positives today. No1 is I don’t have to go chemist hopping.
Nausea – not so much
No motivation to do anything – yep same as day 4
Fear of the future – Yep same as day 4
Worrying how I will get through the day – Not as bad as yesterday.
Well done rachael! That is amazing xx
Thank you Skiddy. I too had read something along those lines during one of my many WDs but had totally forgotten. I think the amount to replicate opiate use is quite high compared with the amount in each tablet. But its so good to be reminded as I have just bought some to help me through!! The tablets I have taken are 2mg each and I definitely will heed your warning.
