Don't be sorry, Mr. Brock. I did this to myself. It was my decision.
The doctor would have preferred that I "taper" down over time. Impossible at the levels I've been using - 200-plus mg per day - because I don't believe I could control the urge to take more than was prescribed ... of whatever the hell it was. Apparently, I can tolerate more of this crap than would put a lessor man in a coma - something I'm not particularly proud of. I looked at my life over the last year and a half and realized that, over time, the most important thing in my life had become the pills ... it's hard to explain, but the draw toward narcosis is both physically and psychologically overpowering. Other areas of my life were suffering as a result ... gradually, but definitely and measurably. I finally said **** it and took the David Crosby train straight up Satan's colon for a week-long visit (or more). I swear ... I cannot believe other people have gone through this, though. Jesus. Mr. Rain Man, please jam your gum up your ass along with a strawberry milkshake. Mr. Iowanian, I couldn't get an erection right now if my very life depended on it and Salma Hayek was here. Thanks for your support, guys. What the hell was I thinking? FAX |

I had a hard time coming off of a 3 day morphin bender when I was hospitalized for a kidney stone.
I can't imagine what you're going through. Good luck. |

This is why I usually refuse pain meds when they're offered - I know I'd really like them. I have a prescription for vicodan but don't take them more than a couple times a month, cause for me they could become a habit real fast. I'm funny that way.
Best of luck to you, FAX. You're one tough hombre. |

My daughter was on and off medically-supplied narcotic pain meds for 4-1/2 years beginning at age 14. She turned to street supplies late in 2009. She has been in rehab the last 6 mos (I paid for 5 of those out of pocket). She just got home last week. At 20 she has a 10th grade education, no job, and no driver's licence. She basically lost 5 years of her young life to those damn things.

You can beat this! My wife has been fighting her Fibromyalgia and Crohn's disease and has had to come down. It sucks for a while. I had to come back after a month on pain killers for burns and was eating Vicodin like it was going out of style last year.
