As with all addictive compounds, going cold turkey is horrible. If you can’t do it, you need to start cutting your pills. Some pills even have a little dent in them to make them easier to cut. Cut them, and take them in lower and lower doses. They’re hard to cut, but it will make the withdrawl symptoms lighter, and you will eventually get over it. It’s actually a narcotic, addictive, dangerous stuff – NOT WORTH THE HIGH

Do you have a friend who can stay with you all night? Someone that has to be really strong because you will be going through a lot of pain. Your friend has to stay up and make sure you don’t take any pills. The first night without it is always the hardest, but if you know you can get through one night, you can get through more. But knowing you need to stop is the first step. Good luck.
