Prescription fraud

Right at this moment...I am so so scared. My life is completely over and I don't know what to do. I have been phoning in fake scripts to a pharmacy for months now. I called the script in on Fri and went to pick it up on Sat. the lady there said she didn't see one for me and there wasn't one on hold. So.....rather than taking a lesson learned..I called it in again on Mon. went to pick it up and the pharm said he was waiting on a phone call back from the doc. what makes this even worse is my mother works for the doctor. I'm a terrible daughter..My mom didn't work mon or tues and she goes to work on wed(tomorrow) does the doctor have to report this to the police? Now, I know the doctor knows cause I tried to call the pharmacy back in desperate attempt to stop all this for catching up with me and vowing to myself and God to never do this again. What should I do ....call the doctor and confess...what if they fire my mom who is the best woman in the world..I can't believe this drug has a hold of me like this to do such terrible selfish things. I lay in bed every night and regret so much and hate myself for this. I use to be the happiest person in the world. God has blessed me so much and yet I go and screw things up. Any advice please please?

WOW, self, you told my EXACT story. I was busted for RX fraud, arrested, and MY mom was the Drs BOSS. Have you been in trouble with the law before? I had never been in trouble, was always the "good child" and no knew the slightest bit of my addiction. Until one day the police showed up at the door. BUSTED I thought, then the BIGGEST sigh of relief. The game was over and I was able to get the help I needed. And guess what?? NOTHING is on my record. I did as the courst said, I went to detox, and completed a out patient program. My older sibilings did however hire my a criminal lawyer. If you want to talk message me and I will send you my phone number. I know EXACTLY what you are going through. Pleae know in your heart that brighter days are ahead. Laura

Just as the others have said before me, you need to sit down with your Mum and tell her all about this. She's going to find out anyway and it'll be much worse if she finds out before you tell her. Which drug are you using?

I really don't think your Mum will get into any trouble with her employer as she hasn't been involved at all.

Drugs make you do strange things, often beyond your control. You've made a mistake, as has nearly everyone on the list. It's not unforgiveable, your life isn't over and you aren't a selfish person. I know it's really difficult not to think badly of yourself just now, but you are as gifted and valuable as anyone else on the planet. You will get through this and the list members will support you.

Thank you all for you immediate response...This couldn't have came at a worst time. My family is in WWIII over my grandmother's estate. My dad is executor and they have been going through her belongings....family members are all mad cause they didn't inherit what they wanted..etc. My mom is also a cancer survivor as of a year ago. They found a spot on her lung at the first of July had a biopsy done it was benign. I thought God was punishing me through her for doing such terrible things. She doesn't need anymore stress. Do you all think there is a possible way to avoid telling her today.....maybe call the dr?...I know I should have thought about the stress and hurt it would have caused her BEFORE I did this. She just can't handle anymore stress today. I know you all are gonna sayTELL HER....guess, I just want to save her from worrying......Yes, I know I should have thought about it before I did it.
I was/am using hydrocodone about 100-120 mg a day. I have came off these before but, had pain..and got hooked again....This life is old and I do want a new beginning..just wish I could keep my mother who adores me and is the best lady in the world from being disappointed.

There is good Advice here .... Tell your mother, every one clam up go see a lawyer
Don't confess to any one else.Don't talk to police or pharmacy every communication is going to be recorded, get into rehab or detox get responsible for your recovery. Pray to god that this blows over but don't use. Don't rat your self out be quiet....I'm not a lawyer but Ive been in messes and I talked to much out of fear and ended up in big trouble because of my big mouth.. ... Good Luck

I agree with avis - you have to sit down and tell your Mother today, before she goes into work tomorrow.
What are you taking, and how many each day?  Your life is not completely over, in fact this may help get your life back believe it or not.  It will be a long hard process but worth it in the end. You are not alone, god blessed each and every one of us with blessing and we screwed them up, but he does forgive.

As scary as this is you are going to have to sit down with your mom today and tell her .She needs to know before she goes to work .The I would suggest she speak to a lawyer if possible today before she goes back to work .

  Now for you u have to get into a program whether it aa/na meetings or rehab you have to get help for yourself .Your mom may want to look into Alon meetings as well .

You get threw this you mom wont love you any less but you have to tell her
