Ok so 5 months ago I was prescribed codeine for severe back and hip pain. I will take somewhere between 5-6 30mg tablets a day, last week I suddenly started going through withdrawals, which made not a lot of sense, I had cut some of my pills in half and some days took more some less. Could it be the up and down dosing? Perhaps a faulty batch of codeine? I want to come off hense why I tried to taper myself. But as of today I had one 30mg this morning 12 hours ago and don’t want to take anymore. I’ve had a few addictions in life and latley I’ve found myself very depressed and withdrawn. So realised I needed to come off.
Does long term use make you depressed? And does anyone else get the whole waking up at 6am with their whole body on fire and blood pressure through the roof when tapering?
Im going to go cold Turkey now as clearly messing with my dose wasn’t helping in the slightest
