So many of us have been caught up in the lie about these drugs... It's the lie that more is even better.  Let him know that he is changing his brain's physiology and not easily reversed.

I know I read the the post, But in my experience it is always a friend or sister or relative. When in fact it comes down to the addict hiding behind the shame of of it all. I would not tell a third party how to tell someone else how to get clean. Take it as you wish, I have have a feeling about this one. Otherwise we would have gotten a lot more information.

BUT IF IBKLEEN IS CORRECT AND IT IS A FRIEND AND NOT YOU.  HAVE YOUR FRIEND LOOK AT THIS WEB SITE.  AND WHAT MAKES YOU THINK YOUR FRIEND HAS A PROBLEM HAS SHE CONFIDED IN YOU AND ASKED FOR YOUR HELP?

Welcome, To the Forum, here we try and help each other in and with the disease of addiction, Your  first step to recovery is to accept the fact that you are suffering from an Opioid addiction which is a treatable chronic disease of the brain. How long have you been on hydrocodone and for long?
The second issue is that you are suffering from a dual addiction, the second being soma which is a terribly addictive medication, Especially when combined with a narcotic it increases the effect of the active ingredient in soma which is Miltown, a tranquilizer. This two meds when used together produce an indescribable euphoria. But as your builds a tolerance to the drugs the euphoria that was once within your grasp, becomes for and more difficult to achieve, yet you spend the rest of the day trying to catch that high. Which is very rarely caught only once a day in the morning. Of coarse it takes many months or longer to reach this stage of the disease. What is your diagnosis for the use of pain meds and muscle relaxers. If your ready to start your road to recovery you may email me if your wish. Just click on my blue user name and click email. Send me the truth about whats going on in your drug use and medical conditions, Take the first step its up to you!
Am I right? Or have you not reached this stage as off yet, If you have and want help send me an email, just right click on my user name and select email. --------NOAH
