I was hurt in the military right after 9/11. I didn't heal right. I was fed a lot of percs to keep going. Drs had me on all kinds of stuff. Decided it wasn't for me. I went cold turkey. It was hell.Ive seen a lot of stories where people have injuries and end up addicted to pills. Wish there was a safe alternative, with the same goal of "pain management."
I wish I wouldve done sub instead of methadone. I missed my dose yesterday and wasnt feeling nice this morning (Im not on a stable dose, its too low to begin with but im scared to go up.)
I ended up drinking again yesterday just a few shots, quit at 6pm and drank alot of water afterwards. They ended up forgetting to breathalyze me anyway, until the 2nd nurse said something to thd nurse dosing me. I shit you not I grabbed my dose and drank it quick!
Im done drinking now though. Im glad I made this thread, I wont forget who you guys are. Thank you. (The picture is of two cars I cleaned for a photoshoot. I cant believe how different I am under the influence of captain morgan.)
Reason I bring it up is because I could see how a problem could develops. Everyone I know that has been upped to the point of Roxie's and opanas ends up with a problem.
Screw that. Opiates are horrible for pain. The actually make you hurt worse. They cause rebound pain and headaches.
Stay strong and get away from opiates. No good can come from them.
