Common Questions and Answers about Vicodin dosage recreational
vicodin
An additional concern I have is that I have put myself at risk because of recreational use of Vicodin, which has gone on for about 2 yrs. While I have never taken more than a small dosage on a given day (never more than 500mg in a day and most often about 250mg), my usage has been fairly consistent usually about twice a week. Would a tinnitus resulting from Vicodin use be more likely to result in strictly tinnitus, without the hearing loss?
Thanks everyone. I really appreciate any input.
I was only on Zoloft for a month. I stopped cold turkey because I didn't like how they suppressed my real emotions. It wasn't a problem stopping cold turkey for me.
I'm only temporarily using Tramadol to help with my Vicodin withdrawal because I stopped it cold turkey and I'm having very uncomfortable chills as a result and the tramadol is helping a lot. I'm only going to be using Tramadol for a few more days until my body recovers from not having any Vicodin.
I started takiing narcotics (vicodin, percocet, oxys) recreationally 5 years ago. Generally 10 - 15 percocet 10/650s. Other days anything that I can get my hands on. Today is the 2nd day with nothing and I am a mess. I can't tell up from down in from out or what any emotion is. I cry, I yell, I have cramps, I throw up. I do not want to live with the durgs in my body anymore. I cant feel anymore. I cant remember anything anymore. Life is passing me by and I dont know how to rejoin it.
M_DuBb22, I was taking an average of 75mg of Vicodin for 14 years. A few months ago, for a month, I took 300mg.....that's 60 pills a day. Anyway, I just passed my 3rd week off the Vics and I went off cold turkey. I had some help though.....I had some Clonidine....it helps allot with the w/d's, in fact I'd say it probably helped cut the w/d symptoms in half. In the longrun going ct is better and easier.
I posted earlier about some unusual experiences with sub but didn't give any details. My doc recommended me take either 4mg or 8 to start. I was in mild WDs, so I said I'll take 8 to make sure it would get me off those. He agreed, and said if i need more two hours later, take another. Anyway, to make a long story short, I ended up extremely sick the next day.
I have no desire to take them for recreational purposes at all. I just want to make sure Im not going to get dragged through withdrawals again. I was only prescribed 10 5/325 Vicodin and im just looking for reassurance that im not going to be put through hell again if i need to take a couple for pain over the course of a few days.
Everyone is different and it depends on a lot of factors such as age, general health, dosage, and length of use. Usually the acute physical detox is over in 3-7 days. Please stick around and keep posting. This is a fantastic place to get support, encouragement, and advice. Once you quit, let us know what symptoms you are having and we can recommend different remedies that might ease them a little. You can do this!! Good luck to you!
I found this sight researching how to detox from Vicodin. I'm impressed! I take Vicodin every day and really want to stop. I'm embarrassed to admit that it has a hold on me as I have convinced myself that I can stop any time and that I'm in control of my 'recreational' drug use. When I think about getting through work tomorrow without it or not using it to help me 'stuff' my issues I feel a paralyzing fear and don't know if I even can or want to do it.
Hi All,
I have found great help in reading all your posts and want to say thanks. I have always like taking vicodin as a recreational drug (like when out drinking on a weekend and a friend hands me one); however, I had a bad accident 1 1/2 ago and have been on them ever since. I take 1 a day during the week...But on weekends, I find myself taking 2 or 3 a day. I know deep down inside I do not need them anymore for the pain. If I do not take one, I start sneezing constantly and can't stop.
I know I am now dependent on vicodin. I felt this way once before after knee surgery, but just tapered off. I also quit smoking cold turkey so I am fairly motivated to go the course. After a second knee surgury this year, I am having trouble getting off the 375 miligarms dose 3 x a day. Stopping for a day results in chills at feet and hands, no sleep, and increased emotional pressure to just pop one. That is especially true at night.
Now Ive taken tramadol in the past for pain and recreational purposes and never had a problem when I stopped but I never took them for too long of a period. My question is being that I have an addictive personality, especially to opiates(norco,oxycontin), how long is it relatively safe for me to take tramadol without becoming addicted or dependent upon them. Ive read some really devastating posts about some serious withdrawls that can happen with tramadol.
I was sober off everything during the first 3 months of pregnancy. Lately, I have been abusing 1000 mg vicodin and I take about 3 a day. I am in pain, but it has turned into recreational and possibly physical addiction. I also take an occasional xanax as well. Have I hurt any aspect of the baby's development. I feel like I hate myself and I need help. I'm also on 60 mg of prozac a day, which the doctor told me was ok, and he monitors my meds.
i really dont have the answers to your specif questions, but i did want to let you know, you are playing a dangerous game. i hope you wake up and stop the recreational use before you find its too late. it will sneak up on you and usually by the time you figure out you have a problem it is a full blown addiction and completely in control of you. good luck and keep reading the post here to get an idea of how the oxys will take over your life.
that i just want to do it on my own. will i be ok if i just stop taking vicodin, i have been taking 1-2 pills a day for almost 2 years it seems that if i dont take one my heart pumps reallly fast, is that a withdrawlor what. do people die from stopping the med.
Hi. I need help/support. I have been taking vicodin regularly (monthly script) for about 2 yrs, For a elbow injury. 2 mo ago, i broke my foot. I went to dr, and he gave me vicodin. which gave me more pills than I usually get. However, my husband has a few problems, he works construction got hip replacement 4 yrs ago, and has taken darvocet, then was put on percocets after darvocets were taken off market. So if I ever needed anything, I would take his.
I was first introduced to Vicodin ES (10mg/325 APAP) in December of 2008. I have been taking between 4-8 10mg Vicodins everyday for about 4-5 months now. I finally realized I have an addiction and I am wasting to much money on them. I really enjoy taking them for recreational purposes but I think its about time I stop. Compared to others, and the readers of this, is my addiction severe? I am thinking about tapering down to about 2 a day and then after about a week stopping cold turkey.
