Are Opioids Withdrawals Over? Sixth Day

Today is the Sixth Day of Full Withdrawals and I am wondering are opioid withdrawals over? Yesterday was a better day than the day before, and I felt like writing and thinking. The amazing thing is sleeping all night for the first time in many years, in fact, I don’t remember when?

I did not waken in terrible pain, and thank God that has not happened since I started taking the CBD oil! So, I am going to stay thrilled with CBD! There are no cravings for the opioid Oxycodone, and the physical symptoms of my body throwing off the drug are mild and controllable.

I have helped my body and CBD oil control the symptoms with what works for me under stressful conditions. I considered the flu-like symptoms though they were moderate like they were the real flu and took over the counter flu, fever, and diarrhea medications. The ones that I usually took with my prescribed medications.

Craving the Opioid or the Narcotic 

Lest you think I don’t know what craving is or am lying to you about not craving the opioid or narcotic, I was on them both for twenty-eight years and depended on them like life’s breath! I became so completely done with what I needed so seriously depending on a physician’s decision to say “yes” or “no” with his pen that I had enough!

February 25, 2018, was the last day I took Diazepam (Valium), forever, God willing! I don’t ever want to go back on them, they are so seductive and quickly addictive. That has been five months! I’m here to tell you those first two months were long months.

Mentally, I still have thought flashes when I think “Now, would be a good time for a Diazepam!” But I quickly shove it aside with a “You are doing just fine, hang in there!” and I do okay!

With my pain and anxiety like it is or less, I am so completely thankful for what CBD has done for me already, and what it is doing!

Addicted and Craving Nicotone

I want to write and I can’t because I have to get up and go to the computer to put my e-cigarette batteries on to charge. That is what a craving does! It interferes in all aspects of your life! I know because I have been smoking cigarettes since the age of thirteen. Since I didn’t quit until the age of sixty-three, that is a lot of years of smoking!

In the past, I have done all kinds of horrible things with my cigarettes! I have accidentally burnt my children with them! Do you know what that will do to a child and mother? Always, I made sure I had cigarette money, before medicine! Thank God, I never had to choose where my children’s food was concerned!

Smoking – Vaporing e-Cigarettes?

So now for four years, I have been smoking e-cigs (and my Granddaughter says vaporing), and it is not as satisfying as the real thing, but they have enough nicotine. I do not burn anything and there are no ashes or second-hand smoke. All to the good!

Once my best friend’s daughter had to go to a rehab facility for helping her come off of some drugs and they made cigarettes one of her drugs. She was able in a month’s stay to take care of all of her drugs except the cigarettes.

Paula was told cigarettes were on the same addictive level as heroin and as hard to kick! I believe every bit of that! I have walked miles to have a cigarette, and in my fifty-one years of smoking, did many things I am not too proud to tell.

Opioid Addiction Anxiety or SAD

For years I could have been having Opioid Addiction Anxiety or Social Anxiety Disorder (SAD), and, I don’t know how much of which! Searching for opioid withdrawal symptoms I found some symptoms for long-term opioid use. The first one on the list was severe anxiety, and the second was diarrhea!

Social Anxiety Disorder (SAD) Diagnosed Age 4

When I began medication at the age of thirty-nine, my anxiety was severe. Social Anxiety Disorder from the age of four was diagnosed. I have clear of recollections of “Show & Tell” in Nursery School, wherein I could not participate, and stand in front of all of those other children and show my toy. I had my first anxiety attack and was physically sick, so my teacher took me outside.

If your child gives you reason to think they are coping with some form of anxiety problem, by all means, help them. Start with your pediatrician, or if you don’t use one, your family doctor. Anxiety can begin in the cradle for the child can be born with Social Anxiety Disorder.

Social Anxiety Disorder (SAD)

Social Anxiety Disorder (SAD) is a form of Autism in most cases and the child is born with SAD as they are born Autistic. So much work is being done today with Autistic patients including SAD patients, physicians are learning new characteristics every day.

I and my three sisters have Social Anxiety Disorder, and now, my granddaughter was born autistic. Three of us had childhoods where we plainly showed forth signs of SAD for diagnosis. Of course, we were not diagnosed in the 1950’s and 1960’s.

Severe Social Anxiety Disorder

I can only clearly write of my own experience so that is what I shall do. There is a clear striving for love with a lack of ability to accept affection and believe they are loved! You will see a seeking of acceptance and approval without the ability to accept praise or be the center of attention graciously. They are embarrassed.

For a SAD baby a little noise can become too much input to handle. They can’t process it and will shut down and sleep through it, then finding that impossible, will cry and cry their way through it. Stop the input. Start it back, one thing at a time.

Instrumental music with few instruments is a good choice for nap time. Mother, Father, or another person well-known to the child, softly touching their back is a good thing. Try building clean, soft patterns to which the child will become accustomed.

Afternoon Seventh Day Full Withdrawals

This post has a lot of stuff in it! I started it on the morning of the Sixth Day of Full Withdrawals from Oxycodone. I am finishing it in the afternoon of the Seventh Day of Full Withdrawals and my internet has been down for two days.

Having had no one to talk to about withdrawals, medications, and duration of symptoms, I feel very alone. I am not alone although I am wishing for people informed about withdrawals to talk to now. If my internet comes back up I can contact my internet doctor. It’s time to talk to people about how the CBD oil is helping me and how it helped them.

Lyrica and CBD Oil

Mestinon is my medication for Myasthenia Gravis, and I take Lyrica for the severe Fibromyalgia nerve pain and neuropathy. Now Lyrica and CBD oil are my basic medications for pain, because the only time I was out of them, I suffered terribly.

CBD oil has done so many good things for me, out of all of them keeping the intense pain out of my first thoughts of the morning is why CBD is the most treasured! Second, is that I can see clearly instead of double-vision which made it difficult to read and write.

Myasthenia Gravis and Opioid Withdrawals

There is a muscle connecting your eyes that allows them to synchronize and focus for you. With Myasthenia Gravis this muscle loosens and you lose focus and see double.

Some may have put the clearing of vision first, but they are not aware of the degree of pain I dealt with on a daily basis. If I overslept a six-hour medication time I woke in bone-searing pain that had me in tears. CBD oil drops are making life without pain and opioids possible!

 Oils Are A Natural Remedy

Cause & Treatment For Anxiety

I just read another instant cure for Anxiety, well, not all of it, I didn’t pay the $47.00 to be told all the miracle cure for 3/5 of the civilized world! I wonder if I would have tried to pay for it if they had asked for more? Or if they had asked for less? I couldn’t see anyone selling something that priceless to so many people for $47.00? Can you?

So why do we waste our money on things like this? And we do! Every day hundreds pay hard-earned cash for another Instant Cure! And another well-meaning somebody who thinks they have the answer or some con-artist who knows they don’t have the answers, but they are willing to peddle it anyway, sells the latest idea to conquer anxiety once and for all!

No Instant Lasting Magic Cure!

The last one I read that promised a CURE, INSTANTLY, cost $67.00 and I didn’t pay for that one either!

There are no instant cures, for there are two main causes for ‘anxiety’. The first is a chemical imbalance in the brain. Two main chemicals support your comfort level, and when they are not in balance, you will become anxious sometimes without any added stress. This is the mental disorder type of anxiety that requires medication and therapy.

Another cause of ‘anxiety’ is PTSD and Complex-PTSD, for they lay the foundation for many ‘anxieties’. Sometimes you will have a ‘trigger’, caused by the event. Usually, you won’t.

Prescribed Medication – Medicine From Your Doctor

For many years I listened to my early teachings and used only natural remedies for my anxiety, and I did well. As I grew older and life grew more stressful, at the age of thirty-nine I started seeing a doctor. Yes, he was a neurological-psychiatrist, and I stayed with him for nineteen years, until he retired at the age of eighty.

The doctor prescribed medications for me, and I took them. I trusted him, and he had no reason to do me harm. In those years he was right to me as he saw it. The doctor was good as I saw it too until he left and I had to watch my medication more closely.

Medication from a doctor means ‘you have to have a prescription to get it again’, which is fine if you have a steady doctor and you and he/she understands each other. If you lose your steady doctor for some reason, and your medication is a narcotic, and you are addicted from taking it for a number of years, you are in trouble.

Try calling up a doctor and saying, “I need a prescription for this narcotic because I am addicted, and my doctor retired. I will tell you what happens. You are told to, “Go to the ER and tell them exactly what you told me”. The fourth psychiatrist office I called set an appointment for me in seven weeks. My Primary doctor gave me enough medication to make it until my appointment with the new doctor.

Natural Remedies To Help With Anxiety

At my introduction to psychiatric medicine I learned, I am hard to sedate and difficult to treat for anxiety. So when you leave off the narcotics and take natural remedies for yourself, be wise and find a teacher in the herbal remedies.

Know it is not easy to find the right herbal remedy to begin unless you have a guide.

Holistic or Fundamental Medicine Doctor

A Holistic Doctor or a Fundamental Medicine, M.D.,  with good reputation are two of the best choices for help. Very often vitamin and mineral supplements can replace natural elements that are lacking, like Serotonin.

It is RELAXING  for me to have a cup of chamomile tea when I feel stressed or anxious. Try your teas with honey instead of artificial or processed sugars for the sake of your health.

I suggest you should always talk to your doctor about your herbal remedies so she/he can tell you if they will mix well with your other medications and your body conditions. I can’t take very much Kava Kava because I have liver problems. Kava is hard on the liver. Do you know the condition of your liver?

I wrote in the Spring of 2018 that Kava was hard on the liver, and then learned in the Summer of 2018 that studies had actually proven Kava was beneficial to the liver.

Each herbal remedy has it’s intended purposes and limitations. I am going to suggest to you one natural herbal remedy that I used to treat the anxiety that overwhelms my everyday life and leads to anxiety attacks I can’t control. The natural remedy I can truthfully say I use is Redicalm by Nutreance for it is the mixture of five herbal remedies that have served me well in the past. Redicalm comes packaged in handy capsules to be easily taken without worry about measurement.

The Ease Of Taking Natural Remedies

Gone are the days when taking natural remedies meant potions and powders! Difficult to measure and hard to understand, unless this was your calling or profession, and you were willing to devote years to the training in herbs, potions, roots, and many beneficial organic substances.

In the store in capsule form, many natural herbal remedies are available now. Redicalm is in capsule form and all that is needed is for the dosage to be decided. Long ago I took natural herbal remedies instead of prescribed medication and now I take both. I have chemical imbalances for which I need medication to help me until I can find natural herbal remedies to fully take care of me. Believe me, I will be very happy when that day is here.

CBD Oil A Natural Herbal Supplement
CB OilBioCare Products

I am using CBD oil now, 1000mg. 4 drops under the tongue every 6 hours for a week was my serving size. It is a natural, herbal supplement grown organically and pesticide free in the United States.

CBD oil is a product from the Cannabis Sativa Hemp Plant a form of cannabis. The CBD has no psychoactive components and doesn’t cause you to become high.

Some people use the THC side of cannabis, but I have enough obstructing my clear thinking. So I will stick with CBD oil and other CBD Products. CBD is legal and sold online and in some stores now.

Four months off valium

Today my serving size is 5 drops at 6 am and 6 pm of the 1000mg CBD oil daily. Tuesday I began my second week on 1/2 a pain pill every 6 hours. I am not using the Redicalm right now.

I am still off of the Diazepam (Valium), and it has been about four months since my last one on February 25, 2018. It was a rough three and a half months but the CBD oil is taking away the cravings and the tremors. Maybe it will do the same with the pain pill withdrawals, I certainly pray so! I am well pleased with the way it has taken care of the anxiety!

TEAS ARE CALMING

When coming off of drugs you have become addicted to, it is a good idea to do it under the care of a good physician, but mine wants me to come into the hospital. Then go off all medications, and that includes psyche meds. Now I am sixty-seven (67), and I have not been off of psyche meds since I was thirty-nine (39).

I have been in the hospital and been denied them for two or three days, and found out how I feel, and I don’t like it without medication. I have been diagnosed correctly and I have Bipolar 1, and I am properly medicated. I definitely don’t want to go through withdrawals and medication deprivation at the same time!

Thus follows, I will watch my blood pressure, drink plenty of liquids, and try to keep my medications down. Take the CBD oil and pray and come off of my pain pills which are opioids.
