How Many

I know there are alot of recreation user's on here, How many used becouse of pain and how many used for recreation, and how many are still in chronic pain without the pain meds. Im still in very bad pain even tho I do have some days better than others. I really need to know this today.

recreational use only- that sadly got waaaaaaaay out of hand..... i can't imagine what it would be like to have chronic pain and to want to get off the opiates....

i started using to treat actual pain... i had i terrible accident and still deal with the the pain just i found i have less pain now that i am clean. in fact naproxyn and motrin keep me going.... i will have to have back surgery eventually but i have this nagging feeling it will make my pain worse. what are you suffering from? i have buldging disks and severe nerve damage.... but like i said the pain got more managable without oxys dilaudid or heroin.
