Hi Wanda,

You should check out Creel's group

Withdrawal_and_Recovery/

I can only add that getting your nutritional side

really cranked up and functional should help your body flush the

toxins and repair itself.

There is a lot of data on getting your gut working right that can

affect your mental state better or worse.

Much of todays food does not have the nutrients of 70 years ago,

eating lots of local organic produce if possible can help.

Also you might try a calcium/magnesium mix like AB Calm or

Gilliam's CALM with Calcium. What works for me best is really any

calcium/magnesium powder you put in hot water and it dissolves

more or less completely. Very calming and needed anyway.

Thanks Jim, I forgot to add that I had already reduced the 7.5x4 (30mg) to 3.75x4 (15mg) and was steady for 2 mo. The 5mg are caps (no pills avail. checked w/ Pharm) so I will be updosing as well. Doc's solution was to reduce by half again. To 1.8125 4x day- a 7.5 quartered. I will have to updose, as that cut is huge along w/ the diazapam taper. Docs.

Thanks for the link. Much appreciated.

Hi Wanda,

Can the pills dissolve in water? That is another method to taper down.

For example dissolve 5mg in a cup of water then drink 4/5ths of the cup which

reduces the dose to 4mg. This may be a better idea then what the doc told you.

Yes, thank you. I watched a titration video from trap for benzos but figured it should work just as well for oxy. Mix caps (3) with pureed baby food- apricot and peach seem best for suspension quality- then after well mixed withdraw 4 equal doses w/ syringes. Voila- 3.75 x 4 = 15mg. More than one way to skin a cat. Thanks so much.

Yes, thank you. I watched a titration video from trap for benzos but figured it should work just as well for oxy. Mix caps (3) with pureed baby food- apricot and peach seem best for suspension quality- then after well mixed withdraw 4 equal doses w/ syringes. Voila- 3.75 x 4 = 15mg. More than one way to skin a cat. Thanks so much.

Hi Wanda,

Hope all is well, can you send as a link to trap? Or the video.

Thanks,

Jim
