Hah, I don't think that's legal, so just don't tell anyone 
When I added pain killers I went down hill fast. I was also taking advantage of two diff doctors until they eventually caught on. I still ran out all the time. They gave me more and more each time. Took them long enough to catch on, I believe the DEA got involved in the end. They straight jacketed me for awhile to protect themselves, sotospeak, - along with myself. So glad its finally over. I'm alright, but still, I must have sacrificed allot because of this. I'll never know just how much or what, I guess. Hopefully it's nothing I can't fix.

Thanks , that helps. Withdrawals hit yuh in the worst way, - makes you think about doing yourself in. Nasty feeling. Took 9 days before I snapped out of that. Just awful. That right there will keep me straight.

Glad you're feeling and getting better Jbrew. I quit drinking last summer because it was getting out of hand and starting to be a problem and I had been down that road once before when I was younger and it cost me quite a bit personally.

I think we need a"Have Mercy,- spare me the drama" thread lol
Thanks Dave, yea alcohol addiction for some is almost impossible to beat, specially in the younger years. U know, at that time when we think we know it all. That one there can, and has screwed up many lives. I've seen it, I think we all know someone that has had a problem with it.
Glad you tamed that one..

Crap, I have my first NA meeting tomorrow. I'm probably going to have to tell my stories live, in a room full of x-junkies. Oh joy..YIKES! I have some sort of strange fear about that. Maybe it's just embarrassment ? That's gotuh be it.
