I’m on day 12 of oxycodone withdrawal, 50 mg a day for 5 years with three two week withdrawal times. Last time I was clean for 18 days and still had body aches and was starting to feel better. But this time I just now on day 12 sleeping 5 hours a night have mild weakness feelings aches I don’t know how to describe it. But when I’m doing something like working I feel fine. Any idea how long it will last or any advice.

I was addicted to daily opiates and benzos use for 9 yrs. When I made the decision to quit cold turkey, it was rough. Thought I was never going to sleep again, crawled out of my skin for a while until the physical dt’s just went away. Working out helped a great deal! The hardest part was dealing with the mental withdrawals and having to “feel” my feelings and deal with life on lifes terms without numbing myself with drugs and alcohol. That part is where the work comes in and I had rehab and AA to help me discover a life worth living! You can do it! Stay strong, stay sober, stay connected!
