Hi Hope and everybody else on the forum. I have read all your stories for a while now and wanted to say well done and to keep going. I am one month clean today after being on co codamol for the best part of twenty years. At my worst I was taking 20 sometimes more of the 30/500 tablets a day from morning until night I moved countries in January and realised I wasn’t taking as many with all that was going on so figured it was a good time to stop completely.so when my last ones were gone that was it and I’ve not had any for a month now. The first week was the worst for me anxiety depression etc I struggled quite a bit. I found walking and music helped me immensely after that it wasn’t too bad really. I just think of how much better for my health and my wallet it is. I was spending up to £600 a month at my worst. I still get restless legs at night sometimes but small price to pay and I won’t lie and say the urge to take them goes away completely as it doesn’t but I’m a much brighter better person now. I have so much energy now and do so much more. I’m sleeping better and I have more money.  Anyway I’ve bored you enough but you can do it. If I can anybody can so keep it up and it does get easier. You just need to tell yourself never again.  Good luck everybody ✌️
