Falling off the wagon for the hundreth time

I feel like I cant break the cycle, am I alone on this feeling?
I go thru this every month seems like. I got my script filled a week or so aga, 140 -10/325 percs. I went thru all of them in six days. This is the fastest that I have gone thru them I am starting to get scared of OD. The person I get them from typically is out and wont re-up until two weeks. So I have no choice in trying to get clean, this would be longest I went without them. The longest was a little over a week and a miserable week it was. I was spending $1000/ month on this poison. I just hope I can stay strong and push thru this addiction. I am on day 3 of being clean fing miserable. Sorry about being all over the place kind of hard to concentrate

I'm right behind Kyle with 13 years of failure and agree with him 100 percent, taking so many pills a day my liver hurt. What your saying is you have to make it until you can get a refill...we have all been there... That's not wanting to quit. And you won't ever get clean until you are honest with your doc and yourself. Rehab and total honesty with everyone was my only way out and because I understand the amount of pills you take I also understand what it's going to take for you to get clean and that's rehab. You're in it very deep...you need help to get out.

Listen, you (we) are fighting for your health and well being, if not your life, thus the time to candy coat is over. And everything I suggest, everything I talk about I've done. When I do make a suggestion or comment on the lies and BS your addict's brain is handing out, I call on my 15 years of failure as a reference, not my one year of being clean. I know very little about being clean, but I know lots about using, stopping, using, lying, etc.
As a side note, I am also a "recovering" boozer. I haven't had a drink in 28 years, but I found pills right after I stopped drinking so that number really isn't a true tally of my sobriety. And for me, stopping drinking was much easier than stopping pills.
I really am a nice guy (some may disagree); I want you to stop. I don't want you to string this out and look back 15 years from now and say I wish...
