Sex Drive

Is it me or does our sex drive increase 110%.  I told my wife that this should always be the first clue if I would choose the little white devils again. She knows that little secret now.  No more hiding my addiction from her.  What a huge bonus when we get off the pills.  For those of you getting ready to quit this is one big positive to look forward to.

I never heard of a chicken hawk.  What in the heck is that?   I'd love to add a new word to my vocabulary.  Some of these posts are great and glad we can make light of this situation instead of being serious all the time.  We need to smile and laugh our way thru this.

You guys are all great and I thank you for that.

Don't forget to tell me what a chicken hawk is even if you have to pm me.

I was extremely sexual while taking pain killers...If you become even more sexual off of them, I guess I'll need drug rehab and sex rehab!

LMAO, your an expert in this field, haha. Well all areas actually.

Since my main drug of choice was coke, my sex drive was the highest ever at that point so I guess I am a lil opposite in that sense and that is a good thing, it was too high when I was on coke, lol. I do remember the 2 months I was popping 8 oxy's a day, sex was the last thing from my mind. Enjoy it everyone:)

We dont want to get descriptive on the forum but this question is asked quite a bit.  The pills really take that urge away to the point of sex being non existant.  Seems that after we go thru wd's we are rewarded in this way.  I always recommend taking some time off work and just enjoy!!!!  LOL

You are doing great on day 4!!  Wont be long now.........sara
