awesome

[marcatj]

that wasn't his situation.  and no one said anything about his recovery - in my opinion, it was an ethical/moral situation.  and no one asked what you did, either.

he had a choice whether to sell them, in which someone else would ultimately use who is an addict.  or he could destroy them.  he destroyed them which in my opinion, was the brave and right thing to do.

[Two222]

Sorry but i have had to sell the rest of my stash when I got sober. It was either that or live in my car since I had blown all my money on pills beforehand. In some cases it's not the end of the world to sell them. Yet again people love love love telling others they are doing something wrong in their recovery. Give me a break.

great job.  the first thing that came to my mind was "look out, josh, he's probably a narc!!"  the ddr. knows you are going after him.  he could be setting you up!!

[beachtowel]

i never should have brought this up i think some addicts are jealous of what kind of pills and how many i have again they are the devil and where does the devil belong??? i'm gonna burn them not flush them
Josh

I know I'm jealous you have me pegged...............
I wish I had 500 oxys so I could throw my life in the toilet..........

[Josh26]

thank you youre one of the few who have positive posts most just want to whine , complain , bich, and i think there is alot of enabling going on in here and its just not right i think there needs to be more toughness i think its for the better but yet be sympathetic i just dont beleive that relapse is an option i understand its part of the addiction part but come on i mean some people have relapsed like 5 to 10 times  i just want to hear more people say I QUIT because to me quitting is done once.. but again thank you it was very hard to do but EVERYONE sees a big change in me including myself and family
all i can say is SCREW THE CANDY DOCS
Josh oh yea and i wish everyone in here a speedy recovery

[marcatj]

buddy - good for you for turning him in!  as well, for not only quitting but for doing so with all that stuff "in hand."  all the much harder...

you HAVE done dam good!  and again, i say good for you....

be well...

I am just wondering why Josh would have almost 500 oxys at his house........
I agree with FLaddict talking about them and selling them for $4690.00 is addictive behavior.........and shows where Josh is with his recovery.............

We all are in different places with our addiction and recovery here on the forum and  Josh I
am not putting you down..........nor am i juding you what so ever you have to decide to stop using and change your life which means to get these pills out of your life for good..........

[marcatj]

You flush them, Josh.

Do you really want someone - anyone - to buy even one pill, who could possibly be an addict?  Do you want in any way to add or be a part of even one persons addiction?

The answer is clear.

[Rayy]

i would probaly wind up keeping them taking a few realize wht i did and hten flush  them  so that my opioun flushem

Ray

[3 1/2 yrs sober]

I honestly do not know what I would do!  I have been sober over 3 years, and I can't honestly say what I would do!  I know what I should do, but it is kind of like hypothesizing what you would do if you husband or wife cheated on you!  I will tell you this, do something that you can live with.  I have no room for guilt in my life, so that right there should answer your question!

[Josh26]

I JUST WANT TO MAKE THIS CLEAR TO EVERYONE THAT VIEWS THIS MY PILLS ARE NOT FOR SALE THEY WILL BE FLUSHED SO STAY CLEAR FROM ONE ADDICT TO ANOTHER THEY ARE THE DEVIL CONTINUE ON YOUR VENTURE TO BE CLEAN THANK YOU FOR UNDERSTANDING HAVE A WONDERFUL NIGHT

[beachtowel]

your post could be misinterpreted as your trying to sell Oxycotins............

This forum is full of addicts to even suggest that you have 469 oxycotins and someone is offering you almost $5000........

It could trigger someone to want to buy them from you not a good idea here...........

[Josh26]

has any of you flushed pills before? i didnt say i would do it i was just wondering what you all would do.  It needs to be brought up cuz people that quit here should know what to do with their leftover pills. There are many people who quit cold turkey.  I dont want pills i just want them gone i didnt know exactly what to do with them.  Now i know where you 2 stand and prolly most
Josh

[FLaddict]

selling them will feed your addiction... flush them, pour bleech on them whatever... dont sell them.. that is stupid.. and addict behavior..
