Default Taking 180mg Oxycodone per day, HELP!!

Unfortunately I take 180mg Oxycodone per day recreationaly. I take 2 30mg tablets in the morning 2 in afternoon and 2 in the evening.

I really want to quit but when I stop taking them, I get sick.

Can someone please tell me how to ween myself off of these horrible little things without getting sick?

You can taper all kinds of ways followed by a cold turkey using the Thomas Recipe to help with the w/d symptoms. It's worked for lots of people here. This is the fastest way to get clean of course there are some w/d symptoms to deal with though this helps. Here is a link.

You can also take an easier route than cold turkey and follow the suggestions in the following link for using suboxone/subutex therapy. There are a ton of people on this forum now who are clean using this process. It will take 6-8 weeks if done properly with basically little or no w/d whatsoever. God bless.

Default YAY! On day 5 and feeling tons better!!

I'm on day 5 of quitting opiates and I'm feeling so much better.

Five days ago I was taking 180 mg Oxycodone per day. I've tapered myself down to about 60mg per day and am working myself down to 0mg per day. I feel so much better.

did you manage this sucessfully? remember there are so many people that have done it this way. I am brave enough to still be going cold turkey, and its been a ******** time.

I hope tapering for your sake brings you back to your normal self.

take care
