I don't know what all you are on, and what all you want to get off of.

Withdrawal is best accomplished one drug at a time, or you can shock your system. I did my withdrawals awfully close together.

One thing I can tell you is adding another drug often complicates the course.

Now that I am off stuff, I can feel a Tylenol kick in. I am no where near 'normal' and wonder if there is a normal anymore. That said, it is amazing how clear my head is. I am sleeping some most nights, without any pills! Yes, I am in pain most days, but it is tolerable, for now.

If I should take any med that affects the GABA system, such as a hydrocodone, it throws me right into huge withdrawal, like the first or second week, so that motivates me not to take a thing and just to tolerate whatever is bugging me.

Withdrawal is uncomfortable but one can get thru it. Just have patience and set your goals way out. Good luck. I am pulling for you.
