last ditch effort

I think ive been going about this all wrong. I get so angry about where I'm at and what ive done to myself that I try to drop down way to far way too fast. Then when I cant take it nymore, instead of trying to just take the edge off I go nuts and end up right back where I freakin started.
My new goal is simply to sutvive on my scriot alone. Ive told all my sources that if they consider me a friend in any way, that they will ignore my phone calls from here on out.
I also told my sister that my next Dr appt is on Thursday. I am bringing the paper directly to her. She is going to pick up the scripts, hold them, and under no circumstances is she to give me more than what I am supposed to have. Unless I get sent outta town for work.
Please everyone, cross your fingers for me.
I cant live like this nymire. I have no joy, no hope, no drive to do nything. This stupid G** D***ed little blue pills runs my life. And ruined my life. I want my life back. Please........let this be the start FINALLY of something I succeed at. PLEASE

The days of "taking the edge off" are over man. You are an addict who can no longer take opiates/narcotics as prescribed.

I am the same way. If I take them,,,,even one,,,,I will abuse them. This is not a theory I'm testing about myself, It's been proven. Opiates/drugs  the great stealer of life.... of happinessy....I gave it enough of my life to it...no more,,,,

You will make it...put in the work....its worth it,,,,

Those are some huge steps you took, telling your sources to STOP giving you pills and asking your sister for her help.  I am not familiar with your whole situation, but why are you prescribed the pain meds?  Is it a condition that has pain that could be managed without it, or in a different way?  I just know for me, once I crossed that point of no return and got totally addicted, my tolerance sky rocketed and i really couldn't just take a few or what would be a normal prescribed dose. Whenever I tried to limit my intake,  It only made it worse for me and actually created pain where there wouldn't have been any had I not been keeping myself in constant w/ds.  Not sure why you need it, I was fortunate not to have legit pain, I had only taken pain pills for the sole purpose of getting high. Ugh. Anyways, I really admire how hard you are fighting this, and as long as you don't give up, you will do this!
