The stuff he said bout the withdrawals is the realest thing ive ever heard anyone say about kicking prescriptions painkillers. Especially if you are a regular citizen with a job to maintain and all that even if you wanted super bad to stop its almost impossible to go to work everyday let alone to be productive in any manner for like 3-4 weeks straight after you stop. Then you gotta think about family obligations/holidays etc etc. on top of trying to maintain a positive attitude while getting zero sleep and fighting off the thoughts of how you ended up there.

Eric is right. I was addicted for over a year. Shit almost killed me 3 dif times. Coming OFF is what almost killed me the most. I had several heart attacks. But yea... he's right. I never looked the part. Nobody assumed I was on drugs until I WASN'T on drugs. I was spending 20 to 40 bucks per day from November 2022 til February 2024. Every single day. U do the math. There was 2, 3 day periods when I tried to stop and was in so much pain and throwing up so much, I couldn't take it. 2day makes 2 months of sobriety. I'm never goin back. I wanna LIVE! Addiction is a very REAL sickness, but it's very selfish.

Powerful testimony my brother. Thanks for your story. My nephew is going through this right now. He's was locked up and now they have him in programs in which he keeps violating. He o.d several times but he's not at that point where he's strong enough to change. For me watching him it's a self destructive path he's on but I know he has to want the change before anyone can help him. So I clap it up for you and pray to the MOST HIGH that he gives you the strength to stay clean. 🙏🏾🙏🏾 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

As a recovered addict of almost 10 years, he is 100% right. I started using vicodin and tramadol at around 19-20 years old and switched to Oxy's around 25 years old. The lady I was getting them from was prescribed Perc 15s & 30s, oxy 80's, 10mg methadone pills, and the gel fentanyl patches. She was doing sexual favors for her Dr. to get all of that prescribed to her. She was a crackhead so she would sell me the 30s and 80s for real cheap and give me a bunch on top of that to take her to get crack, so I had an endless supply to do and sell. She would put like 4 patches on at a time and one day she OD'd and drowned while taking a bath. So I lost my plug and started withdrawing because of that. My uncle sold heroin so the only thing I could get was that. So I started doing that and there was no difference in the high, it is literally heroin in pill form.

Praying for anyone going thru this , I’m an NP and I’ve treated opiate withdrawals…it’s a horrible thing to witness… I am currently doing research on potent natural remedies that allow the body to be at ease while getting off opioids ..I will be opening a small holistic (dr.sebi like) rehab house .

There are ancillary medications that are non habit forming and that are not controlled substances you can prescribe patients , lots of clinics give “comfort” meds to patients to ease the withdrawal symptoms, worked for me like a charm made the 2 weeks tolerable and I’ve been clean almost 2 years
