Honey, I knew what you are going through the moment I checked your profile, and posted "I must hold my words, get out of the circle you are in, start communicating with the right people, aquire the means to communcate"!
Dudes are always going to be offering you goodies, because you are beautiful! In my first post to you, I said it is "YOUR" choices, that you make now that will rob you of your beauty, youth, and wisdom or YOU can chose to increase them with the right choices. Keep rereading these same messages to you, so we don't need to tell you over and over, we all need to hear it over and over, so we don't forget how low we've been to how far we've come.
READ THEM ALL, OVER AND OVER, SEVERAL TIMES A DAY!

There is always a battle out there for you, GET GOING ON IT, own it, don't let it own you.
I have been getting mine from my boyfriend. These pills are the reason we have been together for the past 9 months honestly. I decided to end it last night with him although I did make a HUGE mistake again :'-( He usually makes me pay for my pills but last night he brought me a few Norco for free. He saw how sick I was and said they would help. Of course I said no at first but he kept insisting. So like a big DA, i took the dang things and they made me sicker than i already was. Last night was a big eye opener for me. If he will just leave me alone then I really feel like I will make thru these withdrawals.
No I am not presecribed by a doctor. I get mine from the streets. I have been denied any help from doctors in the past because I am so young. But I am seeing a pain clinic in 2 weeks that can hopefully help me manage my pain.
Tif27 I sent you a PM and Saddie6 i'm going to send you one to...i'm in this with both of you guys!! I'll be support for you guys as much as i'll need ya'll to!!
I think a big reason I have always relapsed was lack of support and using all the great people on the sight. I'm back on Day 3 for the hundreth time and would like to make this one my last. You got a friend in me anytime you need one and would love to beat this together.
And just a quick note - it does NOT get easier each time. It gets harder.
How r u getting the pills? Your first order of business should be to cut off your supply otherwise those little pills will keep u on this roller coaster ride.
I quit off 100-200 MG/ day and if I can do it, trust me u can.

Agree..to be honest noone supports me here..not even my family. Only judges me...just wanted to end it all last month but someone talked me out of it i mention before ahhhhhh all this brings nothing but trouble and etc =(
I would be glad to..that was the hardest part for me..especially at night when everyone was sleeping..i couldnt control my thoughts my anxiety would just kick my but..and i tried cold turkey and couldnt do it.i started doing the whole tapering thing friday and it is working for me.i went from takin about 150 to 160 mg a day and went down to 30 mg...i go as long as i can during the day before i take one and the same for the next..the first few days were ruff.but my body is slowly starting to get used to it and its getting easier...maybe try that method ..im going to keep cutting it down to where im just down..dont give up.. keep your head up..and be positve
Oh Kid!
I'm just holding my words at this time, so I don't get banned from this website. You are the same age as one of my children. You have so much youth, beauty and wisdom to lose or gain from YOUR choices. When you are my age you don't want to look back at this point in time and regret not giving up those pills for a few weeks so you can get a computer at home. Or you youngens probably do it with a fancy cell phone, anyways you need to get out of that circle you are in and start communicating with people who have been there and done that with regrets. I'm not belittling you, I'm showing fear. You are the age I was when I began the rough road.
I hope to see some of the great people on this website communicating with you soon. Keep your chin up, be proud of how awesome you are!
Hi tif, I'm so sorry you relapsed but great job on coming back and trying again! You can definitely do this! I'm on Day 7 and am feeling so much better so trust me it doesn't take that long to start feeling good again:). Do you know why you relapsed? Was boredom the only trigger? Maybe you can go for a long long long walk in the evening and soak in a hot bath and read a book (I recommend 50 Shade of Grey if you're looking to kill of a couple of brain cells...haha)! Do this for yourself and for your kids. I get paid on Wednesday and I'm already planning on using the money I normally budgeted for pills (sad, but yes I put it in my budget) to splurge on my daughter. You can do this! Make a list of the reasons why you want to quit and look at that list every time you have a craving. Also, get rid of the pills and delete any contacts. I'm cheering for you!
Samantha:)
The more you try to quit the eaiser it will be as you now have experience and know what to expect. Are you being prescribed these by a doctor for pain?
