How To Withdraw From Oxycodone Intake?

I have stopped my oxycodone not due to my want or need but because I ran out. I run out and go through withdrawals every month for 1 week at a time. I have been discussing quitting half seriously with my fiance, But I don t know how I can live without them .this month i ran out 2 weeks early. I am addicted and dependent due to having 4 discs in my back removed and a torn muscle in my shoulder. I feel lost and alone and don t know how I will ever live without them, but the thought of losing my fiance isjust as overwhelming,
