Is that a euphemism ?
They are prescribed primarily for neuropathic pain but sometimes .
I dont have the best of relationships with my GP at all so i dont have high hopes for any help from him. He, and all other doctors in that surgery are particularly awkward towards anybody with a history of substance abuse.Yep I was prescribed Gabapentin recently for neuropathic pain, didn't agree with me at all so my doc took me back off it after a week or so.
It might well be worth seeing your GP and explaining the situation, if you've already got form for drug abuse then you have little to lose. I'm reasonable honest with my GP but have never asked fro anything specifically. He's prescribed various things for various ailments with seemingly no concern about me being a drug seeker.
I', not convinced that there are huge numbers of people that do that in the UK anyway, I've never really understood why anyone would bother. If I want drugs for 'recreation' I'd purchase them myself, the hassle of just getting my repeat prescription filled is bad enough as it is
Evening all..
Just read through all of your posts in reply to my problem, ta for the time and thoughtMy battery died.
I think in all honesty im just going to have to grin and bare it. Time off work just isnt an option due to me being self employed, i had two weeks off not so long back when i went to Portugal which i did clean up on, two days before the end of the holiday the Mrs and I split up so that sent my head spiralling and did the obvious thing when i landed back home, hit the drugs and got my habit back. Foolish but there you go.
Ive got a two kids, a mortgage, two cars, a habit, my (ex)Mrs doesnt work and i have to cover all of it so time off aint happening.
Root cause of the problem, im not sure, i think its a multitude of things big and small in me that is going to take sometime to address. The newest and biggest one thats effecting me most is the spilt with my partner, we're not living together anymore so im not with my kids either. Im just doing the weekend dad thing and i fuckin hate it, i break down everytime i drop them back off with their mom.
I need to get clean to get back with my family, i get depressed when im not with them, i try to get clean but come mid-week i can't cope with the withdrawals and my drive to get clean turns into "aahh fuck it, all is lost, im a waste of space, i may as well score"
Im nearly finished, i swear
Maintenance is a pain in the arse, due to my job all over the country daily pick ups arent an option, theres no flexibility to the rules so thats that door shut. Plus, i dont want to be in the services anymore, ive tried it, many times and it hasn't worked...
So, grin and bare it...
Edit: can i get pregabelin from the docs or is this something I'll have to search for elsewhere? Obviously my medical records are going to scream drug shopper so what reason would lead a doctor to believe them best for me? As soon as you mention illicit drugs/withdrawals or owt of that ilk they point to the door and tell you to go to the substance misuse clinics
