A member asked:
Is there anything i should do to ease the hysteria and panic attacks from weaning off pain medication?

Pain med: Please see your pcp and a psychologist and a psychiatrist. It is precisely these aspects of the weaning that push you back toward the addiction.

Some other meds: You should see a doctor and try and obtain a prescription of a medicine called clonidine, which is also for blood pressure. If you have an addiction problem, you should attend aa or na. Try to attend 90 mtgs in 90 days. It's good for you to get off all opiates. Those with opiate addiction who don't get help often may end up either in jail or the cemetary. Good luck.
