My husband's pain pill addiction is costing us thousands please help me?
My husband's pain pill addiction is ruining our family. He sometimes spends his entire pay check on them. My heart is broken I love him and I know he is better that this. I can't seem to get him to understand that the whole family is suffering. We are soon to loose everything because he won't help me pay the bills. He has a herniated disk in his neck and gets 4 7.5 lorcets a day but, he has been selling them and buys10's off the street sometimes taking up to 17 10's a day. His surgery is scheduled for 4.13.2007. Should I tell his doctor of his addiction? He is not the person I married. We have 2 girls and this is not good for them. My nerves are always shot I can't sleep or eat. Is there anyone out there that can help me? Maybe someone that is or has been going through the same thing. I know he can overcome this and he has told me that he is only taking 4 a day now but, he lies to me so much I don't even know him anymore. Please help someoneHe has been taking them for about 4 or so years but, he didn't get bad until his injury work related about 2 years ago. He said he called his Dr. and he said " no" for the higher strenght because after the surgery is when he will need that. I think it started out as the fun thing to do and now he feels that to live he has to take them. He has admitted he has a problem but, he has to take the steps.

Help someone!! My husband is trying to stop his pain pill addiction that he has had for 3 or 4 years.?
Friday 4.9.2007 he started going through withdrawls. I can't stand to see him like that. He has to go through this to get off of the pills. It didn't take him long to break and get more. His addiction has gotten so bad that I have to go and get his check on Friday's. I don't mind and I do see this as a change for the better. How can't I cope with this without throwing up my hands. I know it is an addiction and he has to handle this himself but, please realise I didn't ask to be put in the middle of it all either. I do love him and I am trying to help but, I also have a family besides him to care for. 2 girls When I try my hardest seems that is when he is his worst. any tips? anyone?4.13.2007 he is to have surgery fusion in his neck He told me that he is goibg to cut back sloely because he is tired of depending on them and he hates that he let this happen. though it is alot of hot air because he has lied so much I never know what is truth and what is a lie. He gave me his pills so I could give him 4 a day as perscribed not 7 to 10 like he takes. Yesterday morning I gave him his 4 for the day because he asked and I said " don't ask for more tonight. Well he called me at work yesterday afternoon and told me to bring him 8 more and I told him no and he started yelling at me and said either bring me 8 or the whole bottle. After thinking I took the whole bottle and threw it at him and told him " I am through with this and am over the whole situation. I know he needs my help but truely what has he done for me? If his pay check hits his hands on Friday it is gone before he gets home.

Please advice on how to help someone get over pain pill addiction?
My friend boyfriend I've known for many years is one of the most amazing sweet people I've ever met and it kills me that the past few years hes been addicted to pain pills. He has a friend that constantly supplies his addiction and makes it incredibly easy for him to keep getting them for nearly nothing. On top of that he's bipolar and HAS to take medicine just to live " normally" but I already care for him too much to walk away. Everyone else in his family has pretty much given up and they don't know what to do, and I don't know what to do. He's not working and doesn't have a car and yes sometimes I feel crazy for even considering being with him but something just keeps telling me maybe if I take the right steps to help him he will get help. He and I have had so many long talks and we are so right for each other and he even has cried to me about his problems and the way he feels and how he feels lost. The house he lives in is REALLY bad off, I won't even get into that He knows he has a problem but some days he says everything's fine and I'm so worried about him Please anyone who has been addicted to pills or knows someone who recovered, how should I talk to him and maybe convince him to go to counceling or a meeting without freaking him out? I know he has to be the one to do it, but I want to make sure I say the right things and take the right steps so I help him see that he doesn't have to live this way. On top of that I want to be able to at least reccomend affordable places he can go for counceling or meetings so any advice on the best places to go would mean a lot to me. Please help me

What do I do when my mother is suffering pain pill addiction?
It happens every month. And a little over a month ago I witnessed her overdose and bounce back without any medical rehabilitation. She gave our family an ultimatum and we chose her over rehab. I think we should have chose rehab after all but it happened again yesterday. My dad acts like he's going to do something but he says it's all about the peace. What do I do when my father is too blind to see that enough is enough? Seek help elsewhere? He's become her bitch every time and I'm sick and embarrassed of it.

Pain pill addiction..?
so i was diagnosed with fibromyalgia this year im 17 and its been super painful on my body and i found that pills helped stop the pain but it ended up to the point to where i was taking darvon, vicoden, codiene, anything i could get my hands on to stop the pain. but then i started smoking them, parachuting and snorting. Ive had a few close calls before from taking one too many but i just shoved it aside. when i was high i almost stole a syringue and somehow that was my wake up call. im going to have to take meds for the rest of my life how to i not abuse them? or what can i do for pain? and what can i do to get sucessfully clean WITHOUT my parents finding out. thanks

Pain pill addiction..serious answers only please?
I've been taking hydrocodone almost every day for 14 months now due to a shoulder surgey gone bad. I'm in pain management and they just keep prescribing me the pain pills. I think I've become physically addicted to them. When I don't take them I become physically ill. At first I thought I had the flu but I'm now seeing a pattern that I get 'flu like" when I don't take the meds. I'm afraid to tell the doctor because I am in pain the majority of the time. But I don't want to be addicted and I think I all ready am. Any suggestions? how can I get pain free AND stop taking this med without getting sick?

Pain pill addiction..?
Well, for starters, I'm a 17 year old male and I've been taking pain pills for recreational use for a couple months. I take whatever I can get, percocet, vicodin, oxycodone, etc...I dont think it's much of a problem, but I'm starting to think that I NEED them or my day will be horrible. Last night I snorted 2 vicodin 10's and today I took a oxycodone 10 at my girlfriends house. I've been shaking all day, and I don't understand why... I was wondering if anyone knew any good ways I could quit doing these pills, It's starting to take over my life...I'm failing school because of it and stuff. I dont want my parents to find out... Thanks.
