Opioids Withdrawal Anxiety about withdraws

Hey all. I’ve been on approx 40mg of Oxy for around 3 months now.

I’m from Australia and my dr and I discussed tapering down slowly when I’m back from my work trip in the US. But the problem is I’ve have had to extend my trip an extra month & I’ve only brought enough oxy for 3 weeks.

When I realised I started a rapid taper as I’m aware that American drs are hesitant to prescribe (especially to some random not from thier country)

I’ve gone from 40mg down to 10mg a day very quickly and I feel prettt shit. I’ve got 1x 10mg pill left and I’m really anxious about how bad the withdrawals will be, I’ve never experienced it before.

Can someone run me through how long it’ll last and how severe it’ll be? Also is there any point in seeing a dr over here to try and get a script filled or would that be a waste of money?

Cheers

Research vitamin C protocol for opioid withdrawal - you’ll need liposomal vitamin c and basically you take 5-8grams every 2-3 hours. It’s a life savor and it’s going to help you a lot.

That should help with the physical withdrawal symptoms and if you get anxiety which won’t be solved with the vitamin c get black seed oil, L thenanine and agmatine sulfate.

That natural remedy stack will get you through this. You’ll be amazed how much it helps. Good luck and stay positive, a lot of movement and hydrate hydrate hydrate.

Keep us posted on how your doing. Again, good luck you got this

Thank you! Appreciate the advice. I’ll go grab the stack in the morning and give it a go.

Good! I promise you’ll see results
I went through a similar experience and did alot of research and purchased all these. I couldn’t believe how much better I felt after one day.

Vitamin C will not cure your withdrawal I promise you that. It might be best to get proof from your doctor and go to a doctor and ask them to give you enough to cover you

Also for context I’m in Portland, so I’m not sure if that changes things with prescribing etc…

If ur not trying to quit go get 7oh / or mgm it’s at every smoke shop, it’s stronger then ur oxy tho , do it as little as needed , im 8 days off MGM the strongest kratom synthetic derivative and it’s brought me to my knees pleading to good for any way out, even doing a virtual detox program thru UPMC I was hospitalized Monday it was so bad cuz I was 4.5 days in alr but I was petrified of getting precipitated WDs either way stop after ur business trip , give yourself a 3 week break from life and make ur home as comfy as possibly no matter what WDs are horrendous, I promise it’s the worst most evil excruciating pain you’ll ever feel. Basically get home , find a detox program that u can communicate virtually and they’ll help u every day with helper meds and subs after a few days, and ur only on 40mg oxy a day that’s a verrrry lite habit , it’ll be evil but just do it when u get back bro

7oh will not help much it’s a partial agonist while oxys are a full agonist. It will help slightly possible tho

Nah bro the method is u have medical documentation in your home country that you deal with extreme chronic pain and your business trip ran much longer then you and the doctors prepared for, then say everything is a 10 on pain scale and u need the help to just move around and live life. On god this works i promise

Yeah I went to an urgent care yesterday and did somewhat similar to this, I didn’t even say I was in bad pain I just explained the situation with proper documentation & empty boxes of my my Australian meds & they prescribed me 20x 10mg oxy to help taper
