So i have been clean from percocet for 6 days and was starting to feel quite normal and the fog in my mind was starting to clear up and the depressed feeling was fading and i had already been through the worse part of withdrawals (i think). i wasn't weak (physically) dependent on it but on day 6 my dumbass decided to drink 4 gatorades which made my heart speed up rapidly and i started to panic so yeah... i did the whole relapse thing and took ONE perc last night to help calm myself down.. i mean i don't know how i feel right now its the next day after relapsing which would've been day 7 without using. i guess i can say my brain feels a little clouded again and i think the pain killer is still working because i still feel pretty numb but i'm scared for what tomorrow is gonna be like.. please reply!! will this set me back to day one? after taking that one perc i started crying in disappointment in myself because i worked so hard to get to where i am at! i mean every addict knows that 2 days after using is when the withdrawals symtoms kick in but how long will it last and how severe? i need answers! i'm scared to disappointed in myself.

will i still feel like i was on day 6 after tomorrow? or did i just mess things up completely for myself?

    Relapsing doesn't mean you have permission to do it again. It just means you fucked up once.

        You'll have to start over. Your body would recognize it so a restart is necessary

        Going five days without is better than having used every day. So you are not going back to day one.

          i was on day six but last night i took one perc.. my mind is sort of clearing up as the day goes on but when i detox this tomorrow i wonder if its going to come with a little depression and anxiety? if so i hope its only for one day maybe not even that. today is what would have been day 7 and i feel pretty normal i wonder if its the perc still working a little or is my mind beasting it through?

            Be prepared for some withdrawal symptoms but don't let it deter you.

    Gatorade doesn't generally, cause the symptoms you described that lead up to your so called relapse.

    Start attending NA meetings.
