How can you get hooked so quick,

Thank you so much for responding to me, I have been so upset and I didn't think any one out there understood me or even cared that I was all messed up again. I am on day one again and hope I can make it until  I have my back injections Tues. But at least today I feel like I will try and will keep on trying even if I slip I will just start day one again.

Unfortunately, once we cross the line from dependence to addiction, it is so easy to get there again.  I have done it time and time again.  When you have real pain and nothing else works...it *****.  The problem is that you are in a catch 22.  Damned if you do and damned if you don't.  I am sorry and hope others will chime in to get you some help.  Just know I understand the dilemma.

I am exactly where you are!!!! I got clean hurt my back again and here I am again!!!!!! I sure wish I had an answer because this ***** bad!!

Tomorrow is day 1 again, and my back is killing me.
Guess in some way we have to learn to live w the pain. Hard because getting through the day at work w pain down your leg(on pain meds) is hard enough.

I am right there w ya
