    Your lucky hydros was as deep as you got. I started on them and kept at it till I was doing 15 80mg OxyContin a day. Yes, you get your motivation back. Day 3 is your peak day. It's when withdrawals are at there highest. It ebbs away more and more each day. After about 10 days you will be out of the physical part. The mental drags on awhile. But everyday gets better and better. Hydros are weak thank The Lord you didn't cross the next bridge. I will be honest with you. I miss opiates. They did something for me no anti depressant or therapy has ever done. They made me okay being me. It sounds weird but it's the truth.
