I have never considered myself to be a person that has a substance abuse problem, but someone now has me questioning that. I am always taking perscription pain killers. (Vicodin, Valium, Attivan, Tylenol with Codein, Demerol) Most of the time it is my perscription sometimes its not. My doctor gives them to me so why would he give them to me if I truly did not need them. Would he not see if I had a problem. Someone told me to examine why I really took them. I got thinking my pain really is not that bad but I still feel that I need to take them. I just pop em when I feel the need. Maybe I really do have a problem
