hi folks wee update with myself im now on day 16 on cold T & finding myself more or less back to normal

The world seems a strange place wothout the codeine blanket but glas the physicals have gone and that terrible exhaustion that kicks in!! just fimished a shift at work and got myself ready and offto the gym – its true what most people say on here day by day it dies get better and glad i done it cold T and just got it over with rather than tapering which i could never trust myself with

keep fighting the good fight

the tramadol are wild at first they make u feel sick and the after a few you get a mad high thats more powerful than codine – i think coming off thems just as bad but rhe withdrawals arent as long or maybe thats just because i had only been using them about a year, id been on codine for 3 years – im on day 12 now and most symptoms passed just absolutely shattered and really low energy, get agitated at bedtime aswel- its a warm day today and im sunbathing – comtemplating a beer – still have 40 odd dihydracidine tabs in my cupboard and im leaving them there – i want to probe ro myself even if there there i can resist tenptation as a few pals still dabble –

the tramadol wre just as bad trust em!! i could never get enough codine pills but could get tramadol easy

when i ran out of cocodamol or dihydracodeine id use the tramadol

just as addictive alot stronger and withdrawals just as bad

thank you v much ! kind if comfirting coming on here and seeing so many ordinary people with the same struggles

ive come off it cold turkey licked myself in my room for the best part of the week and seen it out in bed- absolutely horrible experience but coming out the other end

im on day 12 now and in exhaisted and devoid of any energy

but mentally in a much better place

i started being prescribed cocodamol 30/500mg 3 years ago for my shoulder and neck injuries- i discovered inloved how it made me feel and took my anxiety and any depressive episodes away

last year i lost two important family members and the intake crept up was mixing prescribed codeine with dihydracodeine id get from people i knew

i went from being the fun outgoing one of my circle to the worhdrawn quiet one sittingbin the corner avoiding all my usual hobbies i enjoyed

after some words from concerned pals i decided enough was enough

the last twelve days have been torture but day by day gets ever so slightly easier! just wish this tiredness and exhaustion would kindly bugger off ????
