All my dentist gave me after I had 2 of my wisdom teeth pulled was Acetaminophen. :banghead:




Good luck in your fight!

Believe me JD, if you've whipped its ass for 3 days, you've got the war won. Just don't let up on the last lap.

Way to tough it out, dude!

Good news. Keep it up buddy.

I'm a marathon ****er on that shit. Takes more attention to get him alive, but that's a win-win.

Hey addiction. nlm nlm nlm

4 days clean. I think I've got this thing beat. I realize I'm going to have to be careful from here on out, but lord I feel good right now. Withdrawal effects have subsided substantially. No more cravings. Plus I disposed of the pills I had left. I feel great knowing I had the power to overcome this.

Huge step....kudos.

Now the 2nd phase kicks in.

And I want you to know I'm not saying this to be a d!ck - I just want you to be prepared.

The days will stretch on forever. Time seems to slow.

After a clean work week you'll feel like you've won a battle and week after week you'll feel like you have to battle just to make it through a work week.

At some point you'll ask yourself "how is there this much time in a day? I don't ever remember the days being so long! Just what the **** am I going to do with all this time!?!"

And about then is when you realize just what you've been filling all your time with. And how selfish that really is...

You aren't being a dick. I appreciate the advice/ heads up :thumb:

Nice dude.

One day at a time. Don't worry long term. Just focus on getting though the current craving (if craving is the right word).

;)

LMAO

Good luck dude. I had my wisdom teeth out about a month ago, and only took hydrocodone for about 3-4 days. Coming off that crap was just aweful, and never again will I ever think any less of someone who finds themselves addicted to it. Hydrocodone is one evil beyotch.

3-4 days huh? I'm surprised you had any withdraw effects at all. Thanks for the well wishes. Today is day 5 of being clean. I've got it whipped at this point.

Yikes! My pain didn't come so much from the wisdom tooth extraction - What actually was happening was one of my wisdom teeth was coming in sideways, pushing its way slowly into another tooth. It pushed long enough it causes a hole in the tooth. It ended up causing a fairly serious infection and I needed a root canal. Having the wisdom teeth out was bad enough, but needing a root canal shortly after was even worse.

You have no idea.
