Hi all thanks for the replies.
I just can’t seem to put my finger on why I keep going back to these horrible pills. On day 17 I went to pick up my antidepressant prescription, got home opened the bag and there they were… 3 boxes of codeine in with my sertraline, I hadn’t requested these I think the doctors were just so used to sending me them every month. I lasted maybe an hour before opening a pack and hated myself instantly. I’ve been taking them ever since. Today would of been day 41.
I hate myself. I hate that I can’t even stop taking them for the sake of my 3 beautiful kids. No one knows I’ve relapsed not even my own partner. I can’t deal with the shame. Most nights I go to sleep hoping I won’t wake up in the morning so I don’t have to live in this nightmare anymore.
I’m really struggling ????
Hi everyone, hope you’re all well.
Unfortunately I relapsed on day 17.
Today would’ve been day 39.
I hate myself.
Day 1 again for me ????
Hi Wynter,
Thanks for replying.
I have requested the sleeping tablets from my GP I’m just waiting to hear back, it feels like forever! I just know I’ll feel a LOT better after a good night’s sleep.
Its a funny thing I can be fine all day, coping and determined not to be beaten, then night time comes and I’m alone with my thoughts and I just panic.
I’m just praying better days are ahead, my kids need me. ????????♥️
Is anyone still here?
It’s day 5 and I’m losing my mind wondering when this will ever end ????
I’ve not slept for 4 days and can’t remember the last time I ate. The restless legs and skin crawling is my biggest symptom, I feel like I can’t cope with it but can’t get rid of it either. It’s just torture.
Hi, I’ve been addicted to Codeine for around 5 years now, I am on day 1 of cold turkey. I’m reading how you all took time off work and had to get help to get your kids to school, I have NO help, now I feel as though I’m going to fall at the first hurdle due to this and I really don’t want that. I want a better life for myself and my 3 kids, they deserve it. I’ve sat since yesterday morning reading this full thread. I thought I’d comment as I’ve seen how encouraging you all can be. Thanks for reading ♥️
