EMERGENCY

Help....so my Ex has NO idea about my little addiction problem. His new wife also has knee problems. The last time I talked to them (we all get along great) I told them I wasn't taking pain pills anymore cuz I was just dealing with the pain. Enough said there....well, she just stopped by work and handed me a big bottle of vicodin....she said she can't take them for her pain because they make her sick and she knows I've been hurting and dealing with the pain and she knows going to the doc. to get scripts is expensive (bless her heart) so she wants me to have the pills. It was really sweet of her to think of me....I really appreciate the kindness. Unfortunately I am a huge F**king pill addict and I can't take even one.
I set them in across the room on another desk. I'm afraid to even go near them.....

help...whimper

I just gotta say...I LOVE you guys. We may bicker like siblings on this forum but when push comes to shove-we are all in this together and we will fight to the bitter end to save each and every last one of us from addiction!!
Thank you so much for the support.
Whew...that was a close one.
You guys wouldn't like me on drugs. I'm not very nice and VERY self centered!!

thanks for the support. Man...that was the HARDEST thing I've had to do in a long time. I actually started making excuses in my head the second I saw the bottle and realized it was all going to be mine. What the F**K is wrong with me?!?  Here I am doling out advice like some wise old sage and I can't even be in the room with a bottle of hydros without losing my sh*t.
I guess I didn't do so bad though....I didn't take any......God I wanted to though...

I feel like throwing up

CONGRATS!!!  you did the right thing...i know this had to be hard, probably one of the hardest things you have ever done..BUT one of the best things you have ever done also....We will always have some kind of opiate in reach...Right now in my cabinet i have cough syrup with hyros in it...It is hard , but i know someone that is sick needs it, so i can't change that...One day (4 kids) hubby  may need sugery, i will have to have them and deal with it...I have not had to deal with a whole bottle given to me yet...Thank goodness..i would have to jump on this board and do exactly what you did, that is so normal...
anyways so proud of you
