Help- I'm addicted to pain pills

Somebody please give me some advice. I'm 27 years old and I am addicted r
to pain pills. I have been on and off pain pills for the last 8 years of my life. I got off for two years and cut my wrist. Needless to say when I was getting my wrist sewed up the gave me Vicodin. After that it was full speed ahead. When I first got addicted to pills it was 5 percocets a day. My doctor prescribed me 90 pills every 3 weeks for two years. He gave me a suprise drug test and found in my system and refused to give me anymore scripts. After that I Bern getting them from the dentist and tons of doctor's. Just recently I was on 3 or 4 pills a day. I'm going through major withdrawals and I need some words of advice!

Thank you, when I got caught by my doctor I was taking vicodin, darvocet, and xnax, which was really bad. I was reading some of the other posts and I thank God because I know it can be worse. Now I'm just going through the body pains- I don't want to move but I can't sit still, leg pains ect.

Alexis,

Hang in there, you are going to be just fine....what all were you taking when you got caught by your doctors drug test?

You may want to get some valerian root from the health food store, it is natures valium and will help you sleep.and they have other natural things to help with anxiety.

You will  feel better in a couple of days.
