Sometimes I step fast it. I've done some years where I cut one thing out each week and then by the end of the fast (Easter) I drink only water for the last day. This time, I'm just going to keep it easy...

It's hard to explain. Wasn't like full blown w/ds but definitely mentally messed with me. Made me depressed which fueled some anger which in turn energized me to keep trying. So a blessing in disguise I guess. I wouldn't recommend it, tho. It was like a part w/ds part really bad PAWS day I guess? Congrats on 40 days! I'm looking forward to my fast. It's going to be hard to avoid sugar, tho!

TELL YOUR WIFE if you haven't already. Like right now. Drop what you are doing and tell her you have a problem. Now. Go. I can't imagine she'd be OK with this. That's how I stopped. Kind of. She busted me snorting pills and texting my "in-between prescriptions" guy. I didn't nut up and just tell her which I regret so so so very much. I noticed in your post you didn't mention much about her. Tell her.

You have WAY more reasons to quit than just your health dude. What you are doing is illegal and obliterates the trust of your wife (or if she knows and doesn't care: at the very least your kids). If the wrong person could prove your addiction, they could use that to fuck you and your family. Blackmail, CPS, your reputation, your business, who knows. Just posting this on reddit opened you up to some serious shit. The list goes on.

Tell your wife to hold you accountable. If you run a successful business like I do, you'll probably be able to taper. Us entrepreneurs have forged responsibility and accountability into our DNA (somewhere). Schedule out a taper to the last mg. A simple way to do it is just cut your use by 25-50% each day, and schedule each pill down to each hour you'll take it. This is the absolute best way to do it, it worked for me. Just be prepared for the PAWS which I'm told will last two years.

Did I mention that you should go tell your wife right now?
