Opiate Withdrawl Right Now: Need Some Advice...

[athlete.03]

I'm coming off of about 80-100 mg oxycontin per day cold turkey right now and I'm feeling withdrawl coming on and I could use some advice of those who have been through this before.

I know this is not the perfect forum for this but I also know that a lot of these types of questions get by on this forum and there are a lot of members here who have experience with opiates and I need some advice pronto.

Please let me know any tips or tricks you have experience with. Right now it feel like my skin is crawling and there's this bizarre feeling in my head as if my personality is being subtly replaced. Hard to put into words but I'm assuming anyone who's been there knows.

why???? were you on so much??? try and get a xanax or something. something to mellow you. detoxing is stressful as fuck. yeah, man, you are fucking hitting the wall. your body is basically searching itself for dope. it's a matter of time, is all. might take several days. but hang in there. drink a lot of water. try and eat.

Hang in there dude, the pain is well worth the reward. A buddy plan might not be such a bad idea. Someone who can come over and help you try to keep your mind off of it.

I was on so much because I went through a serious illness a while ago that left some marks. It's been prescribed and monitored by my doc but I've made the executive decision to get off. I've been on for over a year.

Thanks for your advice but right now I think eating might induce vomiting.

dude, if you listen to howard stern, artie lange was talking about some sublingual drug that makes detox easier. buprenorphine (also sold by the names Temgesic, Buprenex, Transtec, Suboxone, and the name that Lange calls it, Subutex. Get better bro

Thanks for all the advice, bros.

I actually do have my girl here for support and she's going to help me through this.

I'm just at the point where I'm looking over the precipice into the abyss and saying, fuck -- this looks tough.

Anyone know any folk remedies for opiate withdrawl? I remember in the film Trainspotting the protagonist said something about cold cream of mushroom soup (I think)... Probably BS but I'm trying to stimulate some memories.
