Thank you chaotic, I really appreciate the response. I'm Hoping the pain will subside before dependence starts. My sister was a narcotic abuser so the entire thing worries me. Of course I don't want that, but I know narcotics, even when you need them can become something more when you really don't need them anymore. I'm going to be paying close attention, and already talked to family about it.
So I'll have support if I do end up seaking them out after the fact. I just don't want withdrawals.
