am I addicted?

[condorman]

Hi, I've been snorting a 10 mg oxycodone once a day for the past 5 months to help me with back/neck pain. I usually get through the day until about 4-5pm, then the pain gets too much. I also feel myself getting sort of antsy and anxious about that time. I don't feel like I'm building up a tolerance and needing more, YET! Can I continue at this level safely, or am I heading down an addictive road? The only negative side effects have been irritated nasal passages. Thanks to anyone for some feedback.

Can you go today tomorrow and the next day without it?

Snorting? Anyone who does this wants more than pain releif even though it not a effeicent mode of injestion for most pills.

snorting pills is addictive behavior...so yeah u r addicted but i dont think u need me to tell u that...i think u already know.....u havent been on them long and thats a good thing.....first of all u need to stop snorting them....i used to snort them too and the damage done to my nasal passages r irreversible.......r u planning on quitting or?

i would say if you start to feel anxiety and stuff around that time then yah probably.  try going a copule days with out any at all and see how you feel. i would suggest you stop.  if i could go back in time i would never even look at a pill. i have been hooked taking around 100-150 mg of oxy a day.  now i am in a real pickle.  trying to cut back and quit right now but holy **** its tough.  if i were you i would quit before it does get bad you do not want to go through it it is not worth it.  trust me on it, and you can probably ask anyone on here and they will tell you the same thing i just did.
