Young Mom who wants more for her life 19 months ago

I would just like to be able to wake up and not want something to get me through the day. I lost custody of my five year old so I could go into detox, and stayed clean for a year and half then got a script for pain medicine and now all I want is it.

Never again 2 years ago

For a year or two now i have used pils recreationally, never been addicted or even close. Just recently (last weekend) i thought i was going to die from them. I had just picked myself up 20 darvacet for like 15 bucks. dosed up on five (have done up to 10-15 but not all at once, within a few hours)and right after the buzz came on my chest started to hurt, like my heart, everything felt tight and i got a horrible feeling in my left arm. the worst part was trying to sleep and having to worry about not waking up. well that has pretty much got me away from any kinds of pills. no more pain killers or muscle relaxers or stimulants. and im glad mainly that i didnt fucking die. i feel like once again i got off lucky with pills but dont wanna see if my luck stays. 17 is too young to worry about having a heart attack!

it's hard.. 2 years ago

I’m working on it.
I reduced the dose for 3/4 of the pill.
Tomorrow i will take only half of the initial dose.
I felt so sick these days by the morning, but today i feel better.
So I won’t give up! ;)



i've come to understand . . . 3 years ago

that you’re already gone. ironically, that’s why i started in the first place . . .



Untitled 3 years ago

just flushed the vicodin and codeine. I wasn’t becoming extremely addicted, but it was beginning to become a crutch every now and then. I’m not going there. Ever. I just didn’t think they would be that addictive-plus the moms in my neighborhood pass them out like candy. I was prescribed them for my migraines-gave me an excuse in the evenings when I felt overstressed and overwhelmed; I think I’ll look for a new doctor.
