Prescription fraud

Right at this moment...I am so so scared. My life is completely over and I don't know what to do. I have been phoning in fake scripts to a pharmacy for months now. I called the script in on Fri and went to pick it up on Sat. the lady there said she didn't see one for me and there wasn't one on hold. So.....rather than taking a lesson learned..I called it in again on Mon. went to pick it up and the pharm said he was waiting on a phone call back from the doc. what makes this even worse is my mother works for the doctor. I'm a terrible daughter..My mom didn't work mon or tues and she goes to work on wed(tomorrow) does the doctor have to report this to the police? Now, I know the doctor knows cause I tried to call the pharmacy back in desperate attempt to stop all this for catching up with me and vowing to myself and God to never do this again. What should I do ....call the doctor and confess...what if they fire my mom who is the best woman in the world..I can't believe this drug has a hold of me like this to do such terrible selfish things. I lay in bed every night and regret so much and hate myself for this. I use to be the happiest person in the world. God has blessed me so much and yet I go and screw things up. Any advice please please?

Thanks everyone for then concerns. To answer a few questions...I couldn't mustard up the courage to tell my mother or father.....the whole family was over at the house....all I could do was hug her a little long and little tighter. There wan't one day I didn't want to quit..I would see people go by and wish my life was as normal as their's. Yet...I didn't realize there are so many people going through this. This only gives me the determination to do it that much more. I've got 60mgs left....I'm refusing to take anymore..I just made my mind up....having some helps with the fact of wanting more. I do like the challenge I have for my self. Don't know how long I can hide this.....wd's from my hubby...I know I know I must come clean...He has 2 uncles locked up for crack...so, he doesn't have much sympathy or tolerance for drug abuse. I prayed to God to help me get off these...just didn't want it to have to involve the law...So, people please don't do as i did and wait till it catches up with you. That one more time you tell yourself....and then I'll never do it again....could be the time you get caught. so then you get to detox and worry too about whether or not someone is going to show up and your door and handcuff you while your 3 yr old with the intellect of a 5yr old watches you get carried off. God I pray to you, I honestly could not handle this...I know God doesn't put of through things we can not with stand but,  how my ......the wd's are nothing compared to the worry and sadness I feel in my heart. love to you all. over 20 hrs in....any help on this?

Hi NOT selfish person,

The folk on this list are still concerned for you.

Please post back and let us all know how things are developing. If they're going badly, that's even more reason to get back and let us try to help you, even if you just feel like sounding off.

Have you told your mother?

Thinking of you. x

The doctor doesn't have to contact the police, although his DEA license might be jeopardized if he doesn't and knowingly "hides" the details. They'll consider him an 'accomplice' of sorts if he doesn't contact the authorities, although he is well within his rights to not contact them.

The pharmacist, however, will contact the authorities (he/she could lose their license, not to mention the pharmacy itself losing their right to distribute narcotics, for not reporting this sort of violation, especially since it's dealing with narcotics). Unfortunately, you've crossed a few very very big lines here, and you're going to have to face the music.

Coming clean to your mother is hugely important, and telling everyone that you're an addict will make everyone involved a lot more sympathetic to your plight and what it drove you to do (severely break the law numerous times), but this is going to be a rough road for you.

I've read all of the above posts, and I don't see where anyone has asked you if you want to get clean? I know that getting caught sort of necessitates you cleaning up, but do you WANT to get clean? If you hadn't gotten busted, would you still want to get clean, or do you think this is your own personal 'rock bottom'?

*Apologies if someone's asked this question and I missed it!

I am sorry you are going through this, if fact I hate the fact I am going through it too, like so many people on here tell me, don't beat yourself up. We all make mistakes some just happen to be against the law. The most important thing is to get the help you need, because to go through all this you need to be strong. I am still learning this. My court dates are so stressful but I know I can handle it and when I can't so many people on here help get me through the rough times. Take care and I hope everything works in your favor.
