Have been taking Lortab 10 for 4 years.  3 months ago got kicked out of pain clinic...got caught getting them from primary doc and pm..stupid!  I have weened from last rx..have one more left. No one knows what I am going through..have no one to talk too...I am extremely sad, anxious and trying to act normal...will I ever feel like I want to live again?????  Please someone talk to me........

Hey again,

Like they say......"fake it until you make it!!!!"

You aren't pitiful, you are detoxing!!!

It's very hard for anyone who has not done this before to be supportive.  We need only think back to our OWN notions of what an addict was before we ourselves became addicted.  "it's all in your head, why don't you just stop???"  "it's your own fault!!!"   You know......those types of thoughts!!!!

You just keep hanging in there and you WILL feel better eventually.  Hopefully soon your smile will no longer need to be painted on!!!!

day 6 today...and every morning is an uphill battle...GOD this is crazy I just want a break!!! yes my husband knows we went through talking about and him being supportive and now I don't know he is not a person with much patience with this...I have always called him "Mr Perfect"..ex-marine we have been married 24 years and I would choose him all over again...but right now I need him and I don't think he knows how to be there.....anyway my kids went to Six Flags today..all day..so I can just be as miserable as I feel right now..I just don't see an end to this right now and can't believe there is one.....I know I sound so pitiful...I am trying so hard going through the motions smiling pushing through it....
