Please don't ever let this drug get a hold of you. I had a chronic pain problem, and I did actually need these drugs, then eventually stronger ones like oxyconode then oxycontin. Like you even though I needed them, I liked them A LOT. I had a nerve block that releived my problem, but I could not give up my drugs. I continued to get them from my pain doc, and I struggled for over two years with this addiction. It only gets worse and then it begins to take more and more to get that same feeling. I am now almost 90 days clean and I went through rehab and regularlly go to NA meetings. I was only self medicating myself. Now I am able to deal with my mental health problems. (I have ADHD and bipolar) I am being medicated for both and just waiting for the effects to kick in.

But please, please don't ever let this go any further. I would stay away from pain meds all together unless you really, really need them. If you have any tendency towards addiction, it is very easy to get hooked on these. I never thought it would happen to me. I went through a lot with this and almost lost my husband and I am still working on "damage control". I would not wish this on anyone.

Just a little advice from someone whose been there. I don't want you to go through what I did. Then than "drug addict" label follows you everywhere!!
