Help with my opiate withdrawals!!?
I posted a question about this earlier, but, I haven't gotten many responses, so I'm asking again. Here's my situation Lately, I've been running low on pills, I normally take 240mg of oxycodone daily, and twice this month I've ran out of them, and experienced withdrawals so bad it easily brings me to screaming crying. I really wanna know if anyone has any at home remedies or any suggestions as to what I can do to ease these symptoms, the thing that I hate the most is the extremely intense feeling in my whole body that feels like there's a million bugs running wild in there and it will NOT let me sleep.. ever. The cold sweats, intense muscle aches, rhinorrhea, and nausea alone are enough to bring me to tears, but, that bug feeling on top of all of it, is sheer agony. I want to get off pills, but, I'm so terrified of the withdrawals I'll have panic attacks if I know there'll be a point I won't have medicine. So, if anyone's been through this, any tips on how to ease those symptoms, please let me know. I honestly feel like this was the worst decision I've ever made, and I really wanna get back to my normal life. Anything will be helpful, words of encouragement, I want to know there can be a point where I'm not dependent on this anymore. Thanks

Is there anything I can do to help them be more comfortable and make sure they are not in need of medical attention? His insurance does not cover detox so it has to be done at home.

Opiate withdrawal question! Please help before they start!?
I'm about to go through opiate withdrawals again after relapsing, I've been taking up to five 10mg percocets a day for about 2 in a half weeks, now its time for me to get off of them again and this time my plan is when i get down to only having 10 pills left i will cut myself down to one a day which would last me 10 days. My question is if i do this will it keep my withdrawals at a minimum and not as bad as last time when i had to go cold turkey? And mainly when that 10th day comes will the withdrawals be gone or will i still have to deal with some W D symptoms?Please if you don't intend on answering this question do not post anything such as " you shouldn't even be taking pills" or " Go to your doctor" I've heard all this before and trust me I'm more than aware that taking pills is wrong and dangerous So don't even think about posting a comment if it's not an answer to the question I Posted. I'm not asking " what to do" I'm asking will my plan work.
