Am I A Terrible Person ?

i'm not an opiate addict, and stealing prescription opiates is by far the most tempting thing on earth. they are like fucking meant to be stolen. designed for it.

you should totally fess up. not for you. i imagine she'll be upset with you. where as if you keep it a secret, she'll know but never really be able to put it on you. like pmoseman was getting at, it will stay with her. this will be much harder for her. having her pills stolen, suspecting a loved one, and never getting any resolve. let her know so she can yell at you, scold you, cry in front of you, tell your mommy, whatever. she needs it and you deserve it. then put it behind you and never again.
 
Wow u guys act like it's the worst thing tat ever happened Jesus I stole over 30,000 dollers from my family took Xanax and ambien from my man leavin her short stealing ativan and more cash from my gma stealing from everyone around me when I was at my worst I don't do that no more but Jesus so much worse has been done by junkies to people that love us
 
Stealing them is 1 thing, stealing from your grandmother who is ill and needs them is about as low as it gets in terms of the stealing of them. But honestly its kind of hard to tell the extent of scummy-ness when you don't say what dose they were and how many you took. As well as a bevy f other details that could make this seem worse or not so bad.

I'll admit to snagging a perc or 2 from my dad, on several occasions, when he was rehabbing a surgically repaired rotator cuff. He was basically on a basis of using them PRN and calling the Dr for a refill when they were about to run out. I actually was driving an hour ( 30 there and back) to pick up the hand writen script every time he needed a new one, so hell I put in some effort, might as well get to have a couple. They were just 5/325s so I don't think the Dr was too concerned about writing a refill if it seemed he was taking 1 extra pill a day or 2 of the week.

But if we are talking 80s or 40s and you took a bunch, it can be a huge hassle getting those refilled. Sometimes they won't, could depend on state laws and the doctors policies.

When I stole those form my dad I wasn;t even addicted, I am now, but I wouldn't waste my time stealing 5/325s now because I'd need the whole bottle to last half a day. So to steal something from a family member that was prescribed for pain would be something they definitely needed, I would not do that.

It's hard to say what the right move is as far as whether or not to tell grandma. I wouldn't let the BDD decide your fate on this one. A matter of fact, this post didn't even need to be made. Because all this is doing, is making you feel WAY MORE guilty than you should as people pour on to a situation that you clearly ALREADY feel bad about. Then they get off the forum, and go jack pills themselves. It really wouldn't surprise me at all. Make an educated decision for yourself, because you know a lot of details that we don't. If it was me, I would assess the situation as far as how badly you did or did not fuck over grandma. If your not causing her any extra sickness, I would keep it to myself and learn from my mistake by never doing it again. If it's blatantly obvious to her that someone jacked some, maybe you should fess up. Just assess the situation, assess your grandmas mindset, and make a decision. If grandma is constantly bringing up "someone stole my pills, they're missing". Maybe you should fess up.Again, it's really hard to say on this one from our outside perspective. But don't over-look the possible ramifications that may come your way by "fessing up". I personally, would only fess up if I really needed to. Otherwise, I would just never do it again.

To me, this is an error in thought. Just because the extent of the negative behavior you have exhibited is greater than that of the original poster of this thread, does not warrant a lesser feeling of disdain for their behavior. While I may agree in part with your sentiment in trying to convey that this is not the end of the world & that there have been many instances in which people have done worse things, it is still a regrettable thing to do.

If your addiction overrides your sense of ethical duty, perhaps you need to spend more time reflecting on your morality. I am not unsympathetic to how powerful addiction & drugs are, as I am an addict of more than 5 years now. But I wouldn't ever want to say something to make the original poster feel okay about what they did.

To the OP - you should feel ashamed and guilty. But you're not a terrible person in my eyes. You shouldn't have excuses, you should consider utilizing the tool of honesty as many have suggested prior to my posting. You seem young. People make mistakes...a mistake isn't going to define your entire existence. But to me, you made a very ugly mistake. Think about what drove you to it and try not to let it happen again.

^Woah, someone's a bit emotional. Is it doing you any harm that Op stole a couple of pills, dose it affect your life?

Op, if she ain't gonna die or anything serious like that it ain't too much of a problem, but just be honest enuf and tell her if she asks and don't do it again.
 
Are you a terrible person? You're worse than that you piece of shit. You're Adolf Hitler, you're fucking Charles Manson. You are honestly scum and the fact that you come here not asking for moral advice but for fucking EXCUSES!? You're a sick, twisted fuck and you dont deserve any sympathy, addiction or no fucking addiction.

at least your honest, and i concur with you
 
Where did the op go? Perhaps grandma has "taken care of business" and the op can't respond....hmmm, karmas a bitch????

Potatoman, dude YOU are a fucking ROTTEN POTATO! !!
 
I'm not touchin this shit...

Glad I could be of service fuc :)

Okay on the OP subject.....He feels a conviction but doesn't know how to control his urges even when his mema is sick. That's called addiction. Hopefully he moves to a new place where he can flee the temptation of abusing his grandma's med's. Look at it like this if he didn't care he would say eff it I'll take want I want and screw what she thinks. I am by no means condoning stealing Narcotic meds like opiates He just need help seriously.
 
you are not a terrible person....i would have done the same thing and felt bad after....just dont admit to her...and shell forget.....just try to do something nice for her or try to get some oxys and give them back without her knowing....you dont want her to think her grandson is a theif....old people dont need that info.... and dont listen to anybody who is being meaN to you....you fucked up....we all have..... just try to be as nice to her as possible....or get her something that will make her happy and forgot about the pills ......just dont do it again
 
ive stolen every narcotic that ive known about in my house and i felt bad about it....but im not a bad person.....i just dont do it anymore because i get my own shit and im not 17 anymore
 
Shouldve just asked her outright for one to "see if it helps with some pains" or something rather than stealing it. Now you gotta come clean
 
Give her however much they would cost on the street plus like a pills worth more and give her your dealers number and say she can go get hooked up and that you're sorry.
