Question by andrew: Ibogaine and Opiates?
I need help getting off pain killers after years of just being handed script after script of about every pain killer on the market from doctors that didn’t wanna do anything for me…I became addicted…or dependent because of the everyday regular use for pain. I’ve been on them for close to 3 years and have now finally found a doctor who was willing to do MRI’s and find out what was causing this severe pain. Soon after seeing him he diagnosed with Degeneratie Disc Disease and preformed 2 failed micrdiscectomys. Here in about 2 weeks I will finally be getting my back fused. After all this is over with I would like to stop living my life from one script to the next for fear of going into withdrawal…. I have heard of something called Ibogaine which supposedly can break your addiction with no withdrawal symptoms what so ever….however…to my understanding the drug is illegal in the united states. Is there any way I can get it…are there clinics like there are for methadone or suboxone?
I can’t take the depression and the sickness. I went to rehab for a week and stayed clean the whole time…but i couldn’t take being away from my girlfriend and family. Help me…

Question by firedragon729: Paxil withdrawal….How long does it Last!!??
iv’e been on a 40 mg. dose of paxil for the past 6 months. on my last bottle before the precription ran out it felt like it wasn’t working as well as it was at first, so when i ran out I thought it was time to quit, & the widrawal symptoms wouldnt be that bad but it’s been a week since i’ve been off it and i feel worse than I did before I started taking it, i can’t get to sleep at all despite how tired i am and my mind races all night, i usually never get headaches but now my head pounds, and i feel like i have the flu. i cant think straight, feel lightheaded all the time, zapping and whoosing sensations, bad panic attacks, fear like ive never felt before, almost thought i was dying the other night. i sometimes feel like im out of my body. i did manage to get an hour of sleep the past 2 nights and had the craziest, disturbing dreams ever. i shouldnt have gone cold turkey. how long does it last before u feel sane again? this is hell and i will be going back on it if they dont subside.
I wan’t to thank everyone who responded, your info. was very helpful and opened my eyes about the truth of the drug. another week has gone by and i am feeling significantly better, but still a few symptoms every now and then, still feel like i have a mild hangover and the flu-like symptoms are subsiding. but nothing like last week which was nothing less than the pit of hell (not an understatement). even though i felt good when i was on paxil, it was like putting on a mask and i didnt even realize it. now that im off it I can feel my old self coming back…i am aware that the depression may/will return and if it does i wont go back on any precription drug, counceling and st. johns wort may be the key, but not drugs. I know many ppl need precription drugs to keep alive, and I know that many of them are safe and have a good rep. but there are many of them out there, like paxil, that u have to be careful of or better yet, steer clear of. thank you all again for your help, i appreciated it.
