Default Scared about withdrawels

I'm hoping someone can give me an idea on what to expect:

I planned on weaning off Percocet and then going through my withdrawels this weekend, However my weaning isn't going so well and I continue to take approximately 130mg of Oxycodone a day. About 2 weeks ago I went through withdrawels and I was clean for 4 days, but gave in again and started another round of pills. Since then, I have averaged around 90-130mg a day. I saved 30mg for tomorrow. Should I be worried that I cannot do this Detox at home? I don't think I have a choice at this point. I did start some supplements this week and I'm getting scared about whats to come.

Please someone, tell me something good!

Hi. Ive been off OC for 12 days now. it hasnt been the best, however, each day gets better. wd`s effect everyone differently, with me, its not being able to sleep, (shaking leg syndrom) is one of the wd symtoms, and an overal craving for the pill itself, your body will make you feel pain in order to get you to give in, and give your brain the drug. DONT. it DOES get better, I feel yukky one day, and not the next. drink lots, take imodium (for diarera)
gayrtaid "blue" for electrolites, NO caffeen, as this makes you MORE "edgy"
and try and get a little excersise each day. you CAN beat this, I am going thru this also. leep reading and posting here, and know that others care, and are willing to help you thru this. Good luck!

Thankyou for the reply any amount of encouragement helps! Were you taking a large dose per day? Does it help that I cleaned out my system two weeks ago or am I starting over? I have no intentions of giving into this again and believing that my life is better through chemistry. I know all I need is time and the depression and anxiety will slowly fade. I look forward to waking up one morning and feeling peaceful and energetic. Maybe I might even think something is funny again! lol

Thanks again,
Holli

I was taking about 260mgs of OC a day. 2wks ago, I dropped to 1 20mg 2x a day, that was hell, then i quit, weening seems to help somewhat, but the true wd happens, well for me, on about day 3 without any OC. I suggest that if you have OC pills now, and you want to quit, give them to a friend if you can for now, as the ctavings will be aweful, and it just takes one pill to set you back. I am hoping this calms down as well, and I try and draw some positive info from here. just keep on, and keep us informed. Good luck
