My god.

I am in a mess here. Started taking pain medication for legit pain. Now if I dont have them I cant think straight. My stomache hurts.. I wake up in a complete panic at the thought of getting through the day. Im a mother..and a disgrace. My father was an addict..clean for many years. He died of cancer a few months ago..i would do anything to have him here to help me as he would know exactly how I feel.Nobody knows of my troubles. I am suffering in silence..and bad. First day with no vicodin today. Im freezing and aching for my Dad even more..i was taking about 5  7.5.a day.

My son is feeling better..thank you. Most of my physical symptoms are gone thank god! Still having major anxiety though. I have an appointment with a therapist next week to start one on one. However I have a question. If I would want to delete this post and start a new one how would I go about that? I have made a srong mental note of all the information here . I know I need some major help but feel I have the right to do it anonomously..know I spelled that wrong. I tried to inbox gnarly to ask but it wouldnt go through. I DEFINETLY want to start a new thread with maybe less bloody informstion. Thanks guys! I know I have a longjourney ahead and need this page.
