Addiction-how did it happen?
Published (2009-11-27 19:26:00)
Ty everyone for sharing your story, although we have different stories we are all fighting for the same thing. Instead of saying I am an addict, I change mine to recovering addict, that is what I am:) Narla, ty for sharing that and i am so sorry what you endured. I just commented on your post on the addiction recovery group and hope you will be ok tonight. Triggers suck but part of our disease. Congrats on all that clean time, I am very proud...

You are on a high amount.. Xanax has to be weaned very slowly and it would be best for you to discuss this with a Dr. I hope you can do this being honest with one would be your safest approach to getting clean.. lesa

yea it seems that some doctors really want nothing to do with helping you to get off of them. and we really cannot be sure of how they will react when we ask them. so i kind of played mine like a piano and got on a anti depressant called cymbalta before quitting. he knew that i was wanting to quit and had written my last perscription for the hydros. and he was pretty cool to ...

First off stop blaming yourself.You didn't do this,your sister did.Second your sister taking all the pills in a few days and then going through w/ds over and over is dangerous to the baby.Is her doctor aware that she was abusing the pills? or Was she getting them for a 'legitimate' reason and her doctor was just trying to taper her off ? I guess what I'm asking is was she totally ...

5 times is nothing. I've seen people that have detoxed well over 100 times. Telling your wife was a start, but you're in desperate need of some sort of aftercare plan. It's almost impossible to do this alone. So, I've given you the "secret"...aftercare. Now, what's your plan?
