I think my days of getting along on norco are over

I'm so scared, im a single mom of 2 children a professional in the medical field. Today i attempted to get a prescription filled with a forged rx from my work. As I was waiting the said they needed to verify with the doctor. I got up and left. Since then my job called me...im havent called back yet.

The withdrawal is already setting in and this feeling is exactly why I did what I did.

Is my life over? When will I be arrested. I have no criminal record at all. I'm afraid I'm going to lose custody of my children.

Just wanted to check in with you before heading to bed.  I agree with Rissa....start a new post tomorrow...a new post, a new start, a new day!  Let's start with that and go from there.

Many, many hugs to you!

As far as you coming this far congrats! With everything financially look into getting help.  Call your town and see about assistance and programs. Hopefully the withdrawals ate getting better.  They should be by now.  The mental withdrawls last a long time unfortunately.  Just keep saying that this to shall pass.  I doubt you will have any legal issues at this point.  Best of luck to you and again look into organs to help with cost of living and food.  Did you lose your apartment?  If not go to the welfare office.  Look into local food banks.

********************************************************************************YOUR LIFE IS NOT OVER!!!!! KEEP TREKKING YOURSELF THAT OVER AND OVER.  YOU WILL HAVE TO DEAL WITH THE OUTCOME OF THIS BUT THAT TOO WILL PASS!!!!! You probably will not do time.  You will lose your job and not be able to work in that field again.  Make sure if you do get arrested you have someone ready to watch your kids and have things packed for them.  YOUR LIFE IS NOT OVER!  Addiction makes us do stupid things.  Try and get in a Program to show the judge you are trying to get help.  Best of luck to you. Remember,  this too shall pass.

Fantastic!  Good to hear that you are through the worst of it.  You aren't going to feel totally well for a little while...that's why the B-12 and B Complex vitamins help.  Hang in there....get into some aftercare...you are doing awesome (you might want to start a new thread next time since this one is getting so long *grin*)
