Firstly, it's crucial to seek professional help from a healthcare provider who can guide you through the process safely. Together, you can devise a gradual reduction plan to taper off the medication while minimizing withdrawal symptoms.

Building a strong support network of friends, family, or support groups is essential for encouragement and motivation throughout the recovery journey. Remember to prioritize self-care and stay committed to your goal of living a healthier, drug-free life.

I would suggest you to consult a doctor immediately and manage your addiction to tapentadol, a pain killer medicine. Once addicted to it, suddenly stopping it will give severe withdrawal symptoms. You will have to taper the intake of this medicine with the help of a specialist doctor who is likely to gradually reduce your intake under medical supervision, till you come out of the addiction totally. The most important thing right now is to consult a doctor who is well versed with de-addiction therapy and get the de-addiction process started without any delay.
Next Steps
Please get the de-addiction therapy done without any delay.

You will be greatly helped if you start taking therapy and medicine together. These medicines are quite destructive for your body and controlling their usage is quite necessary. I have seen such cases and worked along with the same. Medicine and psychotherapy benefit quite effectively.
Next Steps
consult in the mindveda/ doctor's nest centre.
