it is SOO bad. i heard a radio story on it once, and they compaired it to heroine, in regards to how addicting it is.
check yourself into a hospital unit or something.

I'm not sure what you're referring to when you say, "oxycotein".
There is a drug called oxycontin and one called oxycodone. So, I'll assume you're talking about one of these two. Actually they
are the same drug. The only difference is the oxycontin is time released. Oxycodone is the chemical found in the brand name,
percodan. Stronger than vicodin but weaker than demerol. It's a strong narcotic, however and you can expect the withdrawl symptoms to be those opposite of what the drug is used for.
It cuts pain, so when you withdraw, you'll HAVE pain, mainly
muscular. And some headaches. Oxycodone causes sleepiness, so withdrawing you'll be hyper and feel like kicking your legs (where the phrase "kick the habit" came from.
Other symptoms are: runny nose, alternating sweats and chills,
cough (maybe), restlessness, insomnia, possible nausea and vomiting (depending on how a high dose was taken). It will feel pretty much like having a bad case of the flu. Hope this helps.

I have a decent sized collection of baseball related DVD's so I'm going strong still. But I'm gonna need to buy some more in a couple weeks here, its not that big. Right now all I have left is the 86 ALCS and 86 WS and two of the WS games I didn't switch over from VHS (you know why, I'm not a masochist). I watched the 2003 Red Sox season DVD last night and had to turn it off after papi's HR in the ALCS (you know why). Is watching DVDs of old games a withdrawal symptom? I feel fine. Is it?

It is exactly the same as with any sedation type drug that is abused. Withdrawal will consist of N/V, shkes, irritability, severe abdominal cramping, periods of extreme heat and then severe cold, racing pusle, even convulsions....not a pretty picture. But what must be done, must be done...or you will be adicted to it all of the rest of your life...habits, of any kind are hard to break...especially when they have to do with what you think you have to have! Get some help doing this...don't do it cold turkey!.
