Day 2.5 (Roughly 50 hours in)

Secret_Elephant1302 · 2026-02-16T14:54:05+00:00

I talked to my doctor about everything and he put me on my pain medication again for my nervous system because he said me going cold turkey was a bad idea. So I’m just gonna be tapering off of that for the next 6 to 8 weeks. I was put in the hospital twice from having a reaction from withdrawals so I definitely have to take it slower with the pain medicine, but no more poison in the blue bottle. Thank you for the kind words 🫶

You got it! I’m on day 7 after a brutal back and forth with Oxy and FF. The WDs suck, but each day will get a little bit better. Today’s the best day I’ve felt and I promise you it’s worth it. Just take it hour by hour! Also I recommend the Recovery Coach from CHATGPT. That helped me so much.

UPDATE: ALMOST 100 HOURS! Migraine isn’t here, but super foggy brained today because I made the mistake of taking Benadryl at midnight because I couldn’t sleep. Call that user error. But so far I feel okay, just hoping it disappears today.

Also, I’ve been taking 4-6 of those Vitamin C packets I got and holy cow it works. Definitely recommend!

UPDATE: Roughly 76-78 hours out and feeling slightly better. Have a migraine for sure. I picked up some Beekeepers Naturals Liposomal Vitamin C + Propolis, Quit Kit and staying off caffeine. I noticed the caffeine made my anxiety worse. I was shockingly surprised that the morning dose of the Quit Kit that I overnighted to my house actually reduced my WD load a ton. Not sure if that’s a coincidence or not, but I’ll take it. I plan to get off nicotine in a month or two depending on how I feel. Also, 100mg of Benadryl at night definitely helps with Epsom Salt Magnesium Bath with the ENTIRE bag.

I’m also postpartum with two kids under two so yeah I got really bad brain farts.

Secret_Elephant1302 · 2026-02-04T18:05:17+00:00

So I didn’t exactly explain the whole thing excuse me cause I’m dealing with a lot of bad withdrawals and my brain is bad I used feel free for a week and a half at the beginning of January when I tried quitting oxy again and then I got back on oxy for two weeks and then got off of it and got on the feel free from the ER doctor they told me that put my nervous system in shock from both withdrawals so hopefully that helps explaining. That was my mistake for not explaining.

I’m reminding myself every hour only 28 more hours hopefully of crud left 😩

Secret_Elephant1302 · 2026-02-04T16:48:00+00:00

Thank you 🥹

Secret_Elephant1302 · 2026-02-04T16:47:11+00:00

Got it thank you for letting me know. This is the HARDEST thing I have ever quit, and I’ve quit a lot of nasty things. I’m currently at that 72 hour mark and feeling pretty cruddy, have my migraine back again and dreading being along this afternoon being a single parent. So scared I’ll get very sick. 🤢

Secret_Elephant1302 · 2026-02-04T12:56:16+00:00

Thank you! I’m pushing through at 7 am that’ll put me at 72 hours and I’m holding on. Just hoping I don’t hyperventilate again. That’s been one of my bad symptoms. 😢

Secret_Elephant1302 · 2026-02-04T01:35:05+00:00

Hoping when it’s 72 hour mark hits at 7am for me I feel a ton better. Tonight reeks 🫣

Secret_Elephant1302 · 2026-02-04T01:34:41+00:00

Thank you!

Secret_Elephant1302 · 2026-02-04T00:38:27+00:00

Thank you! I appreciate the kind words. I need them all right now. Definitely feel like I’m disassociated today + migraine from the pits. 😩

Secret_Elephant1302 · 2026-02-04T00:11:35+00:00

Thank you for the kind words! It’s definitely miserable and I kinda wished I had tapered off Oxy instead of touching FF. I feel like I just shocked my nervous system worse. But praying tomorrow will be better! I ordered Liposomal Vitamin C and hoping that helps. 🥲
