below is what i posted after reading Xorkoth post about his opiate story. He suggested i post here. I just had a 30+ minute conversation with my brother about what the true story is. He told me to tell the rest of my family but minimally be honest with him. I am going try and be honest with him to do that , but not tell my family yet. He says that means i am not ready to do it yet. lets see where we this goes. One day at a time right. Any advice is greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
U
Thanks in advance,

for whatever it is worth that letter made me come clean to some of family who have no idea i have a problem. That is a start. I am at the 6th paragraph where i started doing the taking time off and struggling with it (ie my first withdrawals after years of using it "as needed" to "for fun" to "now daily" for past few months.) I hope i can do it without a program. Now that i told people
in my family that should help hold me a little more accountable. Hopefully , that is enough. mine got worse when it became easier for me to get. I am sure that is the case for many on here. i suppose i have to stay away from my friends that do them? I assume these have all been disucssed numerous times here, but any advice wuold be appreciated. My biggest question is who has had success without a program and any advice with that, would be helpful. I think that that the 50mg ish (probably more if i am honest about the past few weeks with a pill here and a pill there) a day range that i am at and have been for 4 to 6 months is hopefully doeable.
And Xorkoth thank you for being the one to hopefully start me on the path to an opiate free life. Like everyone here i cant believe I got to this point.
Feel free to reach out and keeping me honest honest or i will hopefully post my progress.
