ok well i agree about the treatment places wanteing ur money cuz i kinda thnk that those places not all of em but most are all about the money i mean it only seems to be wht they care about, BUT some people find it to work in that kind of setting but doesnt matter if u go there or do it at ur own house YOU have to want to quit nobody can help u or make u its all about YOU and u wanting it bad enough, and just because u thnk u can manage it now that soon will be gone and ull be out of control just as soon as u thnk u got in control its just the pilss telling/tricking u into beliving that u are in control and u dont need help well i thnk deep down u kno that u do need help or u wouldnt of went for the assesment and be posting here so i thnk u kno u really wana quite deep down. so good luck and plz consider thnking about just doing it for u and ur family/kids.
Thank you very much to everyone that has commented on my post..you have helped and giving me the drive to keep moving forward in my own mind that i want to quit. I did get the call yesterday and will be going to Rehab on monday. I look at this as my only chance to get better, and Ive made the decision for myself and my children to do this. I know this will change my life. And I hope to one day help others in the same situation. And as cliche as this may sound..If i can do this..then anyone one can do this. I will keep in touch when I can. God Bless you all.
u can do it, really. It is not gona kill you! just get prepared and do it. THERE IS NEVER A *GOOD* TIME TO QUIT EXCEPT AT THIS VERY MOMENT
keep moving foward. In life there is only one path and that is foward, now it is up to you if you wanna carry your baggage foward with you or leave the weight of it behind. keep your head up.
i would suggest contacting jay baines hes very good at helping people with their addictons. please read addictioncontrol.blogspot.com for more info.
Taking 8-10 pills a day is NOT an improvement like you make it sound you are not in control of it you are mentally weak right now and the addict in you is speaking, its erry and very obvious because I have and am still in that place , I could give you a million and one reasons why I shouldnt quit and i'll just do it that one week then im done, no wait next week i'll be done, yeah! no wait next week.... Snap out of it your going to lose so much more if you dont take advantage of this help, and if you cant get into the program you need to still quit. You should be tapering even more while you wait to go to rehab when you can go days without pills you will be having some improvement. But right no you are just as hooked as anyone, tough love, and it is honest love I feel for you I want everyone on here to get well its so sad reading everyones post and feeling a little bit of there pain with each sentace but you gotta do it! I need to quit fooling myself as well I need help you are very lucky if you do get into rehab for free alot of people will and would die to get that help take advantage of it!

I'll be blunt and honest. You have a few good reasons to do the rehab. First, the most important one, yourself. Secondly, your kids. Addiction leads us to 3 places...jails, institutions, or death. Last I checked, neither of the three were very children friendly. So, I implore you to do whatever you can to get into that rehab. Stay there for as long as they tell you, and do whatever they tell you to do (no matter how mundane it may seem). Your life, as a woman and mother, depends on this.
I think if you can get into a rehab I would go .Rehabs can be very hard too. what you are going threw is normal for an addict your body wants its fix you are not giving it as much as you used to so now the pain seems so much worse its really not and after a few months off you will see that .Hang in there we are hear to help.
I am sorry for your position.....but, the rehab center is probably full of the others that thought that they could control it now. "Back to my normal life.." - - You really want to go back to being addicted to hydrocodone? The rehab center is not concerned with your money - - look at this place - do ya think they are having a slow day? And the State is going to foot the bill anyway..... IMHO you need to get the counseling .... you need to go to rehab .... its totally normsal to be frutrated and scared......It IS frustrating to deal with the System....And it IS scary to think of putting the cap back on mommies little helpers for the duration........But it IS also the thing that you should do - - - - Good luck with all......
