Let me start by saying that I have diabetic neuropathy. I'm on pain medication Around the Clock. Of course the longer you take it the more your body gets used to it so now I'm on Percocet and I've been on that for 6 or 8 months. I need it for pain but I'm totally addicted to it. I have ran out of the medication every single month for the last year so then the last two weeks of the month I have to go through withdrawals well I have my medication right now. But it's affecting me differently it's giving me extreme anxiety I've been in for the last year so then the last two weeks of the month I have to go through withdrawals well I have my medication right now. But it's affecting me differently it's giving me extreme anxiety I've been in the emergency room twice. Last night I had trouble swallowing I went in there as usual my oxygen was fine EKG was fine lines were fine. At night I freak out when I'm laying in bed I have to keep my mouth open to breathe because it seems like when I breathe through my nose it's not not enough air and sometimes I feel like the walls are closing in on me. I used to love getting high off pain medication I kind of still do but I think I'm probably taking too much and since I'm an addict I don't know how to slow it down. I just feel completely lost not knowing what to do afraid to tell my pain management doctor what's going on in afraid they might take it away. I don't want to let them know that I'm an addict and I'm addicted I just I feel so so lost I've been off work for a year because I'm a diabetic and I have a big old sore on my foot that have been trying to heal I had surgery on another till on the same foot last year because there's an ulcer on the end of the toe and I lost part of my toe. I want my life back but I don't feel like I can be happy without my pills so my life just seems absolutely insane and I'm scared to death of overdosing I don't know if taking double waiting on prescribed which isn't that much extra does it build up in your system in eventual you overdose or do you overdose just from taking too much at once or from mixing I'm afraid to go to sleep at night because what if I don't wake up I never had this anxiety before ever I would just be able to enjoy the pills. I don't know if it's just in my head after I take the pill with 5 or 6 hours later I can breathe better but if that was the case wouldn't emergency room be able to see that my action was less. What do you think please help me please please please help me
