[Zakk169]

Ok, part 3 I'm doing different.

I want YOUR imput....That's right, everyone who is dealing with or dealt with an addiction to pain pills and has an addiction "thing" that happens to them or happened to them to please post it here in this post....PLEASE!!!!!

I know alot of you related to my lists and have some of your own things that you can add or change mine if you want.

This is kind of cool....Believe it or not, it is helping me with my fear of detoxing.

Thank you frynds,

Zakk

There was a post on the forum that I think you should add.......it was "Stealing meds. from family"....I thought maybe that would be a good addition to Part 3!!!

I've been on liquid methadone for 9yrs. now and it is my hell on Earth. I'm tapering off now and I'm down to 30mgs. & I'm dropping down again on Friday to 30 mgs. I feel alright dropping 10mgs. once each week. I have an 18 year old son and he is drug free thank God. I've always told him about it and warned him. He is the only good thing  that I've ever accomplished in my life.I mean it's hard to raise a child while on methadone and he's known all along. But he has never judged me. He is the only person who knows I'm on it, the rest of my family know nothing. The problem is that I isolate myself and I hate it. I've lived in Nevada for 5 years now and still don't know my way around the entire town!!! I'm afraid I'll fall in with the same type of people I did in Calif.So, it's just my son and I,and he's always out which is great because I know he's having fun and living his life. If this isn't the things your looking for for "part 3" let me know. I've been through a lifetime in 39 years and have much to tell. But enjoy this novel.LOL. Elaine

thanks for the post on that I have had those feelings too and met up with folks I would not normally but just a monthly Rx would not hold me for the month.  I am ashamed for buying them but was my way of coping.  I should be dead, as many as I took and it got to be more and more.  They were to accessable, and easy to acquire.

-Thinking every night that I would take less tomorrow...and never doing it
-Waking up with a feeling of dread if i was low on pills
-Waking up in WDs every morning as I was a daytime user and last dose at 4 pm...did not know it was WD and thought it was hot flashes and depression...
-Meeting up with some unlikely folks that in real life I would not have associated with
_isolating from those I love...the worse part
-stocking my pill bottle each morning before work
-hiding...secretive...manipulating...lying..hurting...lonliness no matter how many people were there

sorry...that is as far as i can go into those feelings this close to bedtime!

Magi and I  kept thinking we were getting warnings from God to get off these damn pills. Like 3 near-miss auto accidents on the way to pick up pills.  I mean really close calls. Cars just coming outta nowhere almost plowing right into us.  We just kept saying he is warning us.
