Addicted to dihydrocodeine help!!

I don’t drink so don’t know about that, my liver is fine and I’ve abused them 40 a day for a year, doesn’t mean everyone’s like that but I’m fine that way, my hearts goosed and I’m only 29 but that’s my own fault, no one else’s, I knew the risks and like an idiot became addicted because they took that nervous feeling away, I’m a total idiot, but I’m 23 days now hun and you can do the same, withdrawals ain’t good tho and Imodium has codeine in so watch what you’re taking xx

I didn’t know It could do heart damage? I thought if anything maybe liver or Bowles/stomach issues. Did they test your heart and tell

You that’s what caused it? I was put on these for a pain condition - but I DO have a severe panic and anxiety disorder which i take Valium when I’m in severe panic mode. But after taking these pills not only did they help with the pain, they also took away the nervous feeling that Valium was no longer helping for. So like an idiot I just started taking them even when not in pain. I’m not a big drinker anyway. But like to Join In on special occasions. Now I’m terrified of alcohol incase I die in my sleep - which is a bummer at big get togethers when ur used to joining in and having some drunken fun. Guess I took my right to do that away when I started abusing these pills 😔 and well done on 23 days. Are you feeling any benefits or are the cravings and daily struggle not to take any still really hard?

Hi I’m the exact same, Valium do nothing for me so started taking stupid amounts of pain meds, my heart is screwed because of them, iv to go in to hospital in April, can’t be that bad or I’d be called in before but the reason is the amount of pills I’ve taken, yesterday was a very bad day and would have murdered for some pills but I got through it, I honestly have never felt so bad in my life, lost three stone in weight, I didn’t realise taking the pills was blocking out my feelings and that’s not good because now I have to face them without pills and that’s a struggle, it’s so hard, I just smoke more fags now, gotta do something eh? I should have went to doc and got my feelings under control without abusing pain meds like a total idiot, we all make mistakes tho eh? A mistake I’ll live with for the rest of my life because my family use it against me, I can’t go out and not answer the phone or they’re rapid on the prone to every Tom dick and Harry wanting to know if iv been seen etc, I won’t be controlled thro this for the rest of my life.

Ahh emma im feeling for ya soundd really really stressful but try stay strong though. How long was you taking them for for you to have heart problems?? I ended up with out any DHC for a few days as i couldn't resist taking my last 14 in one go . Its so easy to get them delivered when ever i want for how much i want as monies no issue for me so im wondering about my heart as i do get palpitations etc. Feels bruised almost. If i dont hear from you good luck anyway. X

Hey only took them for one year, started off on 8 a day for a few months then it’s got worse and worse and worse and in the last 3 months 40 a day, I wish I could take 14 right now, my life would feel complete 😣 I’m sad that iv got something missing out my life, to be honest everyone’s different, you could take for years and your heart could be fine, I’m just unlucky haha, I’m not bothered tbh I choose to take them knowing the risks so I face the consequences, end of story really, I know it doesn’t sound like I care but I can’t change the past xxx

Ah rite that dont sound good i suppose 40 is quite alot though! So are you literally on nothing now then? Or are you taking something for your heart? Its just so tempting init you just wanna keep chasing that feeling you get on DHC! Sometimes i smoke abit of weed but that makes me feel worse and stops the full affect of the DHC working init. Na it sounds like you've come to terms with whats happend aye. Xx

On Naltrexone now, it’s a blocker, doesn’t make me stop craving but if I use I won’t get the effects anyway even tho I forget that and think I can use and get a buzz, my brain is fried and I wish it wasn’t haha, got nothing for my heart yet, gotta get hooked up to a machine for 48 hours to see the full extent of the damage, been told I’ll die before I’m 31 but if that means I’m guaranteed another year a half I’m happy, I mean who’s guaranteed another day? No one, that’s my attitude anyway haha, seriously tho I don’t care about my heart, I buggered it myself so nothing I can do now, I still think about the buzz I got but I wouldn’t get that again anyway, I’m 28 days clean today, hope I can say in 6 months time that I’m six months clean, hoping so anyway x

F**k sake putting me off taking anymore haha. I have been cutting down anyway since ive had chest pains quite scary to be honest i have the doctors tomorrow evening so ill get them to a few blood tests check my enzymes etc as i nearly died on a legal high a few years back so im hoping the doctor remembers that and hasnt let me have 3 years worth of DHC lol. Well 28 days is brilliant well done. Dunno how youve done it feels impossible just talking about it now so good for you emma17237 xx

Believe me I thought it was impossible but clearly it wasn’t because iv done it, if I was you I’d make the most of taking what you can until you have to stop, once you’ve stopped all you do is remember how good your life was when on them, I miss those days of feeling amazing, now everyday I feel crap, depressed, struggling to want to do anything, I used to get up the morning just to take pills, what do I get up for now? To face another struggle without them? Honestly it’s so hard, wish to hell this would go away, my body craves them but my brain tells me it’s not what I want so I always manage to stop myself, not easy, good luck but I wouldn’t tell the doctor because they will only cut u down to 4 a day like they done me and I had to buy off the streets and online, get as many as you can as a back up because once you’re down to 4 a day you won’t get anymore, get as many as you can and try with willpower to do it yourself x

So do i now. I know that it can cause "respiratory depression" but i know DHC is safer to take than CODEINE can anyone assure me im right? Obviously i havent told my doctor how much im taking but they prescribe me 200 DHC every 25 days.. for about 2 years now so surely they arnt giving me dangerous amounts to overdose? Can anyone please reply back soon as i have the doctors tomorrow and thinking about telling them whats going on.

PEACE x

Do not tell them what’s going on, please, they will only stop you and make you ill, I don’t know what’s more dangerous because I took both haha, guess none are good for you x

Ok thanks for the advice ill keep quiet about the DHC side of things. Its like a confort blanket you know what i mean?? Like i need to have them near me every day or i stress out big time. Screw it ive taken worse things in my life n survived. Ive had fun ive been alot of places. If sumin happens it happens. X

Please do keep quiet because they are a comfort blanket, I know, try and do it yourself then when you’re ready get rid of them yourself, that’s my attitude too, iv had worse and survived but had to get off these, honestly hun if you don’t have to then don’t. Easier to stay on them, you’re going to die anyway someday 😂😂

S**t i accidentally pressed the report button on your post im sorry lol dont think it did anything though. Yeah your right it is the right attitude for this situation init. Cant be dealing with any detoxing thing yet. Maybe if they say im dying then yeah 🤣. Joking i know its serious so im sorry if ive offended anyone reading this. Just gotta make the most of it. Im 27 look about 19 lol so least ive got the young gene still . So can you seriously not have anything anymore apart from this blocker? Bet your hating right now. peace ?

Hey it’s cool nothing happened with the report thing, I’m 29,30 soon and look early 20s so not done that much damage, iv got an app of how many days clean I am and it’s saying 29 days, I feel amazing but it says iv not used 1750 pills or something and I’m like WOW! All those pills I would have taken!!! Crazy to think of it like that, we all gotta die sometime tho so enjoy the buzz, enjoy not going to the toilet, enjoy sleeping and enjoy not having bad bad thoughts and wanting to die and restless legs and migraines. Pain when you stop is brutal, my backs killing me and I’d do anything just to take but when I think how long iv done without I really can’t bring myself to bugger that up, make the most of being able to do what u want without having memories come flooding back etc, that’s the worst of it for me, the mental torture x

Wow that sounds like alot! Crazy init. Well atleast we both havent done damage to our looks then just the insides!lol. Where you from? I still get restless legs bad does my nut in and the migraines ! The mind torture is worse your right. Hate mind games too but where i work that takes my mind off alot. X peace

Gives me bangin sore heads Aswell but I still can’t not take them. That horrible feeling in my gut when’s bodies saying you need them is just to strong. I can’t cope with even slight withdrawals. I’ve onlt taken 6 so far today amd probably

Won’t take anymore. Got a sore head but not that churning in my stomach for more.  I’m nearly 34 and genuinely look about 26 so maybe it does something good for youthful looks lol - Emma I don’t know how you get through each day but I commend you. I already suffer poor mental health so the thought of it getting worse if I come off these is making me feel even more terrified.

Anna xxx

Lol think your right there with the young looks. Do you think we should tell everyone it gives you younger skin? Same with me if i dont take em i get crazy stomach pain so the DHC masks the pain for me..for so many thing's really. I dont envy you emma must be really hard. Keep it up tho. I think you need to be really strong minded too pack it up for good. So fair play! PEACE xx

I must be strong minded, I didn’t think I was strong enough but how wrong was I? I’m from Scotland where prescriptions are free so didn’t cost me anything, where are you from? Aye try n stick to 6 or 8 for a few weeks then drop one at a time every month or so, try and do it yourself without rehab, hope you get there hun, it’s so bloody hard but being clean ain’t what it’s all cracked up to be, mental health is bad enough without it getting worse coming off that crap, been arrested four times for kicking off, can’t handle my emotions, the dhc masked my emotions it was great, I didn’t realise at the time but now I’m clean I can’t remember half the stuff iv done or said or bought! My head was fried, if you’re doing it then do it yourself, slowly at your own pace xx

Well ive packed in other drugs before i was addicted to MCAT and Coke for about 5 years but i didnt pack it in on my own i was sentenced to 5 years in jail did a year anf a half got out for 6 weeks then went back in for another year for breach of my lisence for smacking some peodo in a half way house i was in. When i got in reading i was shaking uncontrollably was the worst point in my life id say. Only stayed there for 3 weeks then went to portland where i met some pretty decent guys in there..youd think there'd be all pricks but most of them are just like me did things we wernt proud of but wernt nasty like a few of them in there. We were all getting sober together (part from abit of hooch now n again and a few medications from other ppl. Ive gone thru worse and i think the medications im on now which are sertraline pregabilin and DHC and mertazapine they keep me stable and the Dhc makes me chilled and want to keep being a normal family guy. If i didnt habe my prescriptiln meds id be getting on it continuously and dealing like a d******d. So id rather pick the prescription meds thanks lol. Im from all the way down south in Southampton so opposite sides of this amazing island! If i do try and quit ill take your advice and do it on my own! PEACE xx

hi Alex x where about in Southampton do you live ? I live in Southampton too Xx in fact in totton xx I know they call it rotten Totton but it's not that bad where i live Xxx

Hey i messaged back saying i have three houses in southampton well one house and two flats there in bitterne chandlers ford and basset. Lol rotten totton i got a few cousins in totton wont say who they are on here tho. How old are you? You on DHC and PREGABILIN too? Xx

Hey i messaged back saying i have three houses in southampton well one house and two flats there in bitterne chandlers ford and basset. Lol rotten totton i got a few cousins in totton wont say who they are on here tho. How old are you? You on DHC and PREGABILIN too? Xx

yes on both x i'm 57 xx

How long you been on them for? You shouldn't be ashamed of totton lol its not the worst place in soton for sure. I worked on some nice houses over there . You ever tried to stop taking DHC and PREGABILIN?? Ive managed to cut down to two pregabilin and 5 dhc in the morning then afrer work around half 5 and get home i down 15 dhc and 4 pregabilin with some water n wait for the buzz but lately its just making me feel scatty but ive got a chest infection could that stop the buzz doing its thing?? Peace xx

Hi Alex xx not heard from you in a while x i work in Chadlersford in Psychiatric unit xx i should be a resident myself really x ha ha x i'm still on DHC and pregabalin but takinh pregab as prescribed (mostly ) and cut down to about 20 DHC from about 60 so getting better x today i have taken more pregab than i should because i have a long day at work (12hours) and i need it to keep going x ha ha xx it"s hard being a slave to these drugs but it's good to know that i'm not the only one xx keep in touch xx

Hi Frances sorry for not being in touch been working alot. I'm glad to hear you've cut down well Done!!. If anything ive beem taking more im on about 25 in one go and try to keep the feeling going with 10 more later but never works so pointless taking them. They've taken me off the pregabilin and put me on propranolol which is ok. Seeing a cardiologist this month to see what my hearts like as I've been having palpitations but probably because how much im tkaing. So do you work on Winchester road? Xx take care xx

I work in Merdon Avenue x do you know it ? Xx

Ha yes I know where that is. By the king rufus i used to live opposite the rufus down to porteous crescent. My family still live there lol very small world xx

That's right xx it is a small world xxxx might see you around x ha ha xx

Hi Fran Hi everyone . A few days ago I ran out of both DHC and propranolol. It was horrible! I was hoping and banking on the royal mail to post my tablets i ordered whilst i was at work but they didn't leave it in my safe place. So i was s**tting myself knowing that I wouldn't have any for 2 days! I couldn't explain the feeling mentally knowing i wouldn't have any and it was torture I started to get ibs the first morning off of them and sweating loads and was winding myself up. I'm just wondering does every one feel the same way when they run out? It mentally and physically tortures me. Also i bow have a source that can get me xanax so i can try cut down on DHC a little bit. I know im just taking one drug for another lol. Anyone reply when you can x

Hi Alex x yes i feel the same x i think i just wind myself up and it"s that rather than anything else thats the problem xx today i have only got just enough to last me till my next order comes x it means that i only have enough to take 10 a day most days x that is not as much as i usually take so i'm a bit scared x i get my prescription for pregabalin on Thurs so perhaps that will help me get through x it is awful to think that we are so dependant on these things to let them get us so worked up xx today so far i haven't taken any since yesterday afternoon at about 2pm x i'm trying to see how far i can go while knowing i have some just in case x so far i feel ok but that's prob because i have some just in case x if i had none i would be in a right state xx i'll let you know how long i can go without taking any x

Glad I'm not alone on how i feel and get like that. It's awful isnt it. I literally have 10 left and dont know if my dr will do my prescription tomorrow or not so I'm winding myself up yet again! Im trying to cut down but I hate how i feel off of them. Yeah let me know how you get on. Take care xx

I lasted until about 5 pm and even then i only took them because i wanted to see how i felt x i can't get my new lit till next Tues and i only have enough for 10 a day till then but i take much more than that normally x

I wish i had never started on this journey x i will get over it x i have to x good luck hun xx i will keep in touch xx

Hi x they have removed the email address but later i will send you my phone number and you can send me the address if you don't mind x i need help xx thanks x i am out at the moment x

Hi Fran i don't know whose been on my account but I didn't send that long reply someones stole all my details f*** knows how but not happy. I'm not on xanax I bloody wish! Im still on 25 a day and stuck in a rut . Howre you? Xx Alex x

Hi Alex x that's awful x i was jealous x ha ha x i'm still the same x been thinking about going to my local drug and alcohol hub to try to come off i maybe with the help of subutex or something x i hate all this worrying about getting my meds x what do you think xx

I would be jelous too if some doctor put them on xanax lol..i am able to get it though from a good guy but they gave me bad dreams ages ago. Hmm as you know it's a hard choice to make. Either tell your doctor about problem with the tabs and have him/her take them away or try and help yourself. I personally wouldnt trust my doctor telling him everything. Trust yourself and if you think you need to you stay on them then thafs not a bad thing. But we need to pull it together with how many we take unfortuantly. It's all up to you and what you want. Xx

I wouldn't tell my dr but she doesn't give them to me x i get them through on line dr x i don't trust my dr as it is and she wouldn't be helpful at all x i'm talking about a drugs rehab place and they won't tell your gp x they have their own drs x i just hate living in the fear of withdrawl if i can't afford any etc x i will pop in to them next week and go through my options x

Ah rite ok i get them online too but also get a script from my dr. I didn't realise theres places where they dont tell your GP i thought they had to be involved. Good for you if you do go there Frances and good luck. I dont know what the hell im gonna do i just can't make up my mind and dont think i ever will. That's what it feels like anyway. I know this sounds bad but I'm so glad im not the only one going through this. Life is such a b itch. I feel that the worrying about when I'm gonna get them is better than knowing my doctors going to take them away. Please let me know if you do go to that rehab place. Xx

Hi i know i havent had qny replies but today i told my counsellor i am addicted to dihydrocodeine. Which was scary to do but i did it. Shss told me to goto mt GP which in half hour ill be tellling him about it too. Im really scared. Im hoping he gives me something for the withdrawl or im just not gonna be able to kick this habit. The dr needs to understand my pain physically and mentally when i dont have these pills. Please wish me luck as i hope this appt will go well. Because if it doesnt ill see through mt eyes that there is no help that the "professionals" can do apart from watch you pain and suffer. So if they dont help me today with my withdrawl..ill never walk in that surgery again. My family dont seem to get it that telling someone is a massive thing. Theyll never understand. I feel like no ome will never understand.

Hi Alex x that's really wierd because last week i went to my local drugs hub and told them the same thing x i have got an assessment on Thurs and i hope they will put me on something that helps with withdrawls too x there is a hub in Eastleigh too x look uo Inclusions and you will find it x they won't let you go cold Turkey x it's dangerous x maybe you should see them before the dr x they won't tell your gp if you don't want them too x give me your number and i will ring you when i can x good luck hun xx

Hi Alex. I am also addicted to DHC. I have been on it for 6 years due to a severe beating which wrecked my back. I have managed to come off it cold turkey. The best way in my opinion, is to reduce slowly. Take it down by one every week. Valium helps and hot baths. It is a horrible drug and very addictive. I managed to get off them, and now I'm back on them plus I'm buying Tramadol. I wish you luck and really hope everything works out for you. There is a lot of people in the same boat. I buy DHC to top up. I ran out this morning and it was hell because I had a dental appointment. Good luck and if you need to talk, I'm here.

Hi fran. Didnt see my usual doctor but she was very very nice about everything and praised me for coming out as an addict. She has sorted a 6 week plan for me and it goes like this...because i take 25 to 30 a day there putting me on 20 a day /10 in morning 10 in evening and thsts for a week. And then the second week it depends on how i am and feel and if the first week goes well theyll put me down too 5 in the morning and 10 in evening and so on so on. I really didnt think id ever do this but i f*****g did and i feel really proud and im sure my dad is looking down at me proud for doing what he unfortuantly couldnt with alcohol. Give me your email or heres mine and we csn email as ky speakers broken on my phone. It's im thinking of goung to N A (narcotics anonymous) but dont know which one to go to. Never go to desbourgh house in eastkeigh i found them rude and just pure S**t. X

Hi cheri thanks for the message. Yeah i just decided whilst soeaking to some one from a place called italk about my addiction. Im hoping i can beat this thing too hun and valium i can get which is annoying because i can also get what ever i want. But ive decided to go to the dr and see if this system of theres really works. Where you from if u dont mind me asking n hiw old? DHC is horrible but satisfying feeling and this couldve been prevented in january if they wouldve just gave me something to calm down whilst i watch my dad die for 9 days...and she said no! So i took more n more and now im here. Ibe been on thrm for 3 years. Never had tramadol but heard its veey good and the way i see it is if your tsking just two 50mg tramadol instead of 20 DHC well thstd less dangerous init. xx

No problem. And that's my problem. I can get anything. Last year I was just taking my normal dose I get from my doctor, then I started taking a lot of painkillers. I don't want to disclose my information anywhere online. I'm in a mess with it all. You wouldn't notice looking at me, but inside I'm a mess. I'm taking far too much. Please stay away from Tramadol, It's got a hell of a grip of me. The withdrawals are horrendous. Sorry about your dad. Thanks for replying. I've been through it all. If I can help in any way,please just message me. Hope everything went went. You have to WANT to get off the DHC,

or it won't work. Good luck 

Hi Alex x how did it go at the drs ? Xx

No worries thats smart not giving much info out. Well i do to but we'll have to see wont we yeah thanks i message if i need someone to talk too x

Hi Alex x i know you replied to me earlier but the reply is waiting to be moderated x maybe you gave me your number or something ...maybe its not allowed or something x anyway how did it go at the drs ? Xx

Oh yeah i gave you my ema! Yes it went well at the drs and she was very nice about it all and said im doing the right thing etc. Its a 6 week orogramme where i will be prescribed 112 tablets a week where ill take 10 in morning then 10 in evening for a week. Then maybe down to 7 in morning and 10 in evening and so om. What do you think about this programme theyve suggested? Im just glad theyve not made me go cold turkey but i suppose thry cant as its dangerous init. I hope i can do this fran. Itll be alotnof weight taken off my shoulders n not having to depend on this drug. If this fails then rehab it is . Have u spomen to anyone yet? xx

Hi fran did you get my message? I havent been good with my tablets meant to be taking 10 in morning and 10 in evening but im just coming home after work and take 20 to 25 in one go . Think its going to take a while to get this under control. habe any suggestions anyone?? Anyone tried slowing down tour dosages?

Hi Alex x i am just on my way to the drugs hub now to have my assessment x i will let you know how it went later x wish me luck ...I'm petrified xx i didn't get your message hun xx i want them to put me on Subutex or something xx i can come off that then under supervision x i'm petrified about going cold turkey x i just can't do it Xx wish me luck xx

Good luck Frances. My problem is I don't want to stop them, but they are expensive. I hope everything went well for you. 

Hi frances i hope it went well?? And im guessing thry wouldnt prescribe you the subutex because you can get hooked on that?? And yes cheri they are expensive. I do want to stop now so fingers crossed thid will eventually work x

Hi Alex and Cheri x all went well but don't know yet whats gonna happen x i told my keyworker what ' s whatvand what i would like to hapown and she's gonna get back to mw tomorrow and let me knowvwhat the prescriber says x i will let you inow when i know x i can't afford to buy any more so i need some help to get off them x and much as i like them i do want to get off them xx please wish me luck xx

Hi Frances I really hope it works out for you. I can't afford to buy them anymore, but I've nearly lost all my savings. I really think it's great you both decided to do this. I want to stop, but I can't handle the night sweats, depression, no sleep. I wish you both luck and I can't wait to stop.

Hi Cheri and Alex i have been to my gp now and told her i am addicted to dh118's and she was lovely about it. X I have got an emergency appointment to see the dr at the drugs hub x I have seen the nurse and been assessed and. we have decided that maybe subutex is maybe my way forward x i will then come off that slowly x we will see what the dr says on Monday xx want off of this substance x keep in touch both of you x hope you are both well xx

Hi frances. Wow im very happy to hear that you also are deciding to do this . I am currently on 20 a day and am quite anxious about cutting down further but im gonna keep trying. My drs been really cool about this and i see him weekly now. Hes given me some leniency too which has made me abit more confortable about this situation i am in. Hes given me some nausea meds too which are quite good actually. Im happy to hear your doctor has gone with the subutex way how is that going? Does this mean you have stopped taking DHC all together? You take care fran. Keep puahing yourself you can do it. We can all do it! X x x

Hi Alex x well it hasn't been plain sailing x i was meant to see the drug dr last week in New Milton ans i went but they had cocked it up and put my app back to next Mon x the problem was i had then run out of df118's x i spoke to a gp who would only give me 6 a day to last till monday but i am on 30 x so i took them and ordered some more on line but they don't coms till today x i had an awful day yesterday trying to find meds but had to wait till today till mine arrive x how did you ever get by without any ? X i'm hoping the dr will either help me reduce from 30 or put me on subutex when i go to see him on. Monday x. I really hope so z. I am peyrified now x i thought it would all be sorted out by. Now but not xx how are you doing ? Xx

Hi frances well thats avit crap about your doctor only giving you 6 when youve been on 30! They said its quite dangerous to cut downso quickly i hope they sort it out for you soon. Im doing ok but to ve honest ive gone vack up to taking 20 this week its so tough im not sure if im gonna be avle to do this unless i go to rehab. What makes it worse is most of the websites have cut me off now. If you dont mind me asking how are you able to order df118s as there 40mg arnt they? Which which w e b s it e ? I know its bad for me to ask but im starting to get desperate so if you can give me the we b s i t e try putting spaces so the message comes through. Im starting to regret talking to my doctor now it semmed they were nice at first avout it and now just rushing to get me off it..thsts how it feels anyway. I feel alone in this. Well take care fran xxx

HI alex x uk meds x i had to buy some quickly but at the moment that is the only one i can use x i have a drs appointment with the drugs team on Monday so i'll let you know how it goes x i am really scared as i only have enough to last till monday and i'm scared of going cold turkey xx you are not alone Alex x i am in the same boat xx

Hi..ahh ok well uk meds have told me to contsct GP LOL and yeab i saw that new website funnily enough think im gonna have to go for thag site. I only have enough til monday too!! Well i have 30 left so im hoping i can make them last 3 days. Ive axtually ordered some valium just incase i start to withdraw but he never sends them on time. Hate these drugs ruling my life but i keep thinking and every one has there addiction whether thats drugs alcohol fags weed and even food but on the otger hand im just tryna make excuses for my self. I can see it now ill have ti go to rehab . I know im not reaply alone in all this and im glad im not..but when you run out you feel all these kind of s****y feelings and thoughts. Well i hope it goes well with the doc fran. Let ke know how it goes? Takr care. go easy xxx

Give them a go they are genuine x jist pay for next day delivery x

Hi Frances and Alex. I'm back taking stupid amounts of DHC. I'm so mad at myself. I can't get Tramadol at the moment, so I'm just going into withdrawls for that. ( My own fault). I can't afford to buy the DHC anymore. The money I'm paying for them is extortionate! I'm going to have to stop it all, but the pain is starting to come back badly. I wish the doctor understood and tried to help me properly. They put me on them, and won't give me anymore than 4 a day for my serious injuries. 4 300mg Gabapentin and 4 DHC a day for the pain I'm in is wicked. I can't believe that they are so unsympathetic. I hope everything is OK with you both. Sorry, can't talk to anyone else and felt like a moan! Take care x

Hi Cheri xx we know the pain you're in xx i wish i could say to you both that going to see someone at your local drugs hub would help but i don't know x i will let you know tomorrow xx i have only got 30 left myself x i hope the dr gives me something or i'm stuffed x keep trying xx

Hi cheri ..na dont worry it doesnt soynd like your moaning and evem if you were then this is the place to do it! I kniw how u feel avout drs being unsympathetic and my drs the one that put me on them too. Im starting to worry as i only have 8 left and not meant ro pick my prescription up til the 24th . Ive ordered some xanax and im just hoping this guy sends them tomorrow. Think im gonna have to order 100 DHC for this week or im screwed. How many do you take a day? Good luck fran yes let us know how you get on. Take care both if ya ..will keep you updated on my situation. X x x

This is the site to moan x i would order 100 Alex x you can't go cold turkey x it's an awful place to be x how did we get here ? Xx

Hi Alex and Cheri x how are you both doing ? X i went to see the drug dr on Monday and he said they would try to decrease my amount bit by bit and do it after the "team" discuss things on Thurs x but yet again i had run out of medication so i had to make it only 10 yesterday and 10 today and i have got some more comming tomorrow x this is a nightmare situation to be in xx first getting in this mess and second trying to come off it xx this is one big nightmare and i want it to be over. X. How are you 2 doing ? Xx

Hi frances ...thats exactly what my doctor is doing with me. So although you havent been prescribed it by your GP can they prescribe you them now becwuse youll be decreasing them? I went into the doctors yestterday in the end as that new website could only garuntee a 4 day delivery!! Bloody joke. So i saw the emergency doctor and ge was brilliant i told him id had a slip and went back up to 20 so he prescribed ke another 60 until friday when i see my usual doc. So im quite happy there giving me quite abit of leniency with this but what i know they wont keep it up if im seen abusing it so make sure your honest fran. I first thought i had to strictly stick to this 6 week orogramme but obvioisly they know this is a tough thing to crack so try stay calm about it all and im hoping your doctor will helo you as much as theyve helped me. Let me know how it goes hun. xxx

Hi Alex x sorry i am asuming that you are male but i guess you could be female x the dr i first saw was lovely but the time i had to ring the bloke was not so nice x he was the one who gave me 6 a day x the actual drug dr won't presctibe till i have been discussef by the team so i had to buy ...again x they said they will ring me tomorrow and let me know xx i am really fed up with my life being ruled by these drugs x my friend paid for my meds which are comming today or i would have been stuffed x sounds like you have got good drs x this is the 3rd time i have been here in 20 odd years mind you xx now never again x

My meds arrived this morning but i had got myself in a proper state wondering if they woul get mislaid or what ever x you know what its like x got in a real state x hopefully after tomorrow i won't need to ever get in a state like that again x i hate myself for getting into this mess and people don't really undrstand unless they have been there xx

Hi fran. haha no you assumed right i am male.. Yeah i think i do have good docs how ever theres always one that doesnt care about your needs etc and always makes you feel unconfortable . Even though your docs are crap your still doing the right thing and if theyre making you feel that awful then pick the nicest one and tell them because without there support youll feel isolated to not do this you know what i mean? Some drs can be just damn right rude cant they. But dont take it fran. X x x let me know how u get on xx

Hi Alex x i have just taken some meds and am waiting for that feeling of relief x i absolutely hate it when i feel anxious because i am either waiting for somw meds or i don't have any x i wish i had never started on them and can't even remember why i started taking them in the first place but now they havs a grip on me x i cam't wait for this to be over zx

Hi fran. I feel the exact same. I couldnt resisit an hour a go taking my last 20 until friday im meant to be on 15 so only gave me enough for that. So now in waiting to feel the effect on my last lot to feel avit better about it. Are you scared about you wont be able to do this? Cos i am . these nausea meds dont help atall. Im really hoping these valium turn up tomorrow or friday. I havent got any money to buy any til next week either. Im sick of them controlling my life too but still cant picture me not taking them all together. Do you have fanily to talk about it? Or a partnerim sure thatll helpxxx

I can't tell my husband coz he wouldn't be able to handle it x i have told my sister and a couple of friends but not sure it's helping much x i have made friends with a girl at the group and talk to her about it x she was on 60 a day and stopped dead but she ended up in A&E and is now back on 30 a day x they are trying to wean her off now x i have just bought 30 quitiapine for the anxiety but never bought off the site before so don't know if they will even come x i have got the dr later but it was the one who would only give me 6 a day x i'm gonna try to get him to up my quitiapine the legal way but just bought the others just in case x they are ftom America and cost me £15 to get them delivered in a few days or it would have been weeks x i can't see a life without them either but i guess we're gonna have to xx we will get there Alex x it's just gonna take time xx we both need help xx don'g know we're gonna get as much as we need x but i guess we will just have to make the most of what we do get xx

Ah ok l atleast we cab talk cant we and this helps me does it you? Im sure we will get there and my ex used to be on quatirpine thet are strong arnt they she was on 300mg For bipolar. Let me know how that website works out ive seen american site for all sorts of medication but didnt think it was legit. Yeah thats really dangerous stopping all of them straight away considering 60 a day. Cant believe yoyr husband hadnt picked up on it my ex noticed a year in. Somethings are better left unsaid tho aye xx

Hi frances. This past weekend was meant to be an amazing weekend going to notting hill carnival. Instead..on friday my GP rang and we agreed id instead cut down one by one each week so i was meant to be on 15 all weekend...i went to pick them up on saturday only to find he'd forgot to actually send the script to boots so all weekend i started to withdraw...sweating stomach cramps n then eventually passed out on way up to my friends. instead of partying with alot of people i had to go to south hants and all they could prescribe me was 12 for the 3 day weekend..couldnt believe how unlucky i have been with this...its been a nightmare after nightmare. This morning the walk up to the drs was unbelievably tortuerous felt so weak i hope youve had better luck than me all of you on here. The only thing im pleased about is theyve given me the amount i was meant to have all weekend so i have more lol so sad arnt i. Could u tell me more about this drug hub as it might be a good idea for me to go one. X x x

Hi Fran been a while sorry but have been quite busy. How are you getting on with everything? I am actually now off the DHC and on buprenorhpine..have been on it for around 3 weeks now and to be honest I was finding it really hard at first but now they've uped the dose to 16mg a day its getting me by. I do get the cravings of that DHC feeling but am coping pretty well. Apparently as im still quite young and do have arthritis and fibromyalgia whether my GP likes it or not the rehab people i see will be pushing for me to be on some sort of pain killer. They also said I'm the perfect candidate for a rehab programme for 12 weeks which im thinking about how ever I do have a busy year coming up. I really really didn't think i could've got off these tablets because when I started to run out i used to get this massive panicky feeling all the time and before they put me on this bupe i had to withdraw for 2 to 3 days which was hell! ..but now im on this stuff the panicky feeling has gone..the IBS gone..the chronic constipation gone. But what will never go is that craving 😕 However ive met some really cool people at a place called inclusion and you'd be surprised at the amount of people with prescription addiction are their. Anyway if anyone else is reading this and in the same problem then please have faith in yourself..I thought there would be no chance in hell me getting off these so if i can do it..I'm sure any one of you can too. I always thought I was a week minded guy but people tell me different now and I do feel much better about myself. Anyway merry Christmas all of you. Peace ✌
