I am on hydrocodone/acetominephin plus sevaral differnt pshyc meds, i am most likely addicted, but havn't had a drink of alcohol in over 15 years.I guess i substituted the meds instead of alcohol, but the meds are important for my health an pshyc problems. I have degenerative disc desease from several accidents, and i need the hydrocodone for extreme pain i'm in if i don't take them, i know they are addictive but i was a vegetable until i got the docs to precribe them-i hate to say it but i need them to function at least a little bit. I feel like i have to apologise for being on them, but i really can't because they did almost save my life, i'm on a small dosage, of which i know i i'll need upped at some time.
