Exhaustion...

[paper skeletons]

Hey guys- ya know when you've used oxy/h for a few weeks straight, but not just enough to have real w/d, but just a few aches and a sense of complete exhaution- like too tired to even sleep? Is there anything you do to ease this? Or let it pass with time?

Cheers!

Aside from using more oxy (and continuing the cycle) there's not much you can do, without resorting to benzos and/or sleeping pills.

Just do your best to let it pass. It will. Eventually.

christ im jealous... three days, hell two days of use, and im wd'ing like nothing else.... i recently thought i would be in the clear.... i used for two days after the dreaded third day sober... i figured, im cool for wd's, no issue.... then like a bag of bricks... im fuct... sore, hotflasshes, sweats, insomnia...

[alowishus]

Yeah no shit, a week for me and i'm in full w/d's.

The only real thing you can do is to take care of yourself, eat right, take vit-a-ums (if your in the UK), drink alot of water, drink some coffee, and wait.

It helps me a lot to keep busy. I often forget how shitty I feel when I'm occupied with something productive.

[antigonemuse]

im glade you can actually move.

Shit when Im busy getting high then go to sleep, I can sleep for a day at a time... On the other hand when in w/d I cant sleep for days... It always makes that wait take forever..
Then again, if im really blasted I cant sleep either, just wake up every hour and another burn hole in something..
Hmm sounds like a plan..

[Dan Steely]

Some things must be done regardless of how I feel, and admittedly wd is not that bad for me. My habit is pretty minor league.

Yeah, I guess my habit's like 80 mg or 3 bags a day...and then I just give it a rest. I do feel like shit, but i'd have to say that the exhaustion is the worst part for me! I thought once that I had bad w/d, but that may have very well been a case of cotton fever- bad fever, mad chills, headache- kinda death-worthy, or at least worth a trip to the ER...

so the w/d feeling just doesn't measure up to cotton fever. But I've read of people feeling much worse than this, so I do feel lucky.

Peeps that use/abuse drugs are almost always suffers of mental illness; depression, etc.
So keep that in mind, your exhaustion could be a result of depression or another non-physical cause.

And yes depression can wipe you out, just because you don't want to top yourself or listen to Morrissey all day doesn't mean you're not suffereing from it.

[Dan Steely]

excellent point alow.

[paper skeletons]

True about depression. I can see how just having gone through that last pill or bag can trigger it. hmmm. Thanks, allow.

You wanna try coming down gently off that shit with some nice bags of heroin.

Yeah that's my opinion man, but you might wanna ignore it.

stick it out. it could be (and wil be- if you keep using) a whole lot worse.

i'm in the same boat right now..
feeling all weak, like a little old lady.

In the first few days of WD's I don't know how anyone can focus on anything at least for me the WD's is all I can focus on cause they are such a bitch,also I try my best on trying to focus on how I can score so I can feel better..And in WD's sleep is impossable with me hell I take Klonapins and ambien and still nothing except then I'm so drowsy but still can't sleep..

[Diluted]

I maybe the King of the Smokers Lounge :) But, I'm the Pussy of the W/Ds. The first sight of goosebumps, or a flash, or a moving leg and I'm screaming for more suboxone.

Now? I've kicked OCs a few times, snorted powder heroin habit, bootin' tar habit, and methadone... Yeah, I've been in the... suck it in suck it in suck it in mood and waited, but methadone was the worst.

When I D/T my anus gets really wet, and there's a wet-spot on the back of my pants. It's very embarrassing. I've heard people tell me suboxone w/ds are very minor with just exhaustion (can't even stand in the shower)

I'd do the benzo route. I'm no health professional, but I think maybe $40 street value of xanax along with $20 street value of hydrocodone and you should be ok IF YOU REALLY WANT IT, you'll be ok.

Or, shit, if you really want to get clean - go get caught doing a misdemeanor. Don't post bail, wait 30 days to see the judge, when you do see him - you're free to go - yet have kicked. Jail is the best rehab, IMHO.

I think benzos will do the trick, though.
