I am new to this site looking to meet friends that are or have struggled with opiates as I do for many yrs pain meds I take everyday just to be somewhat normal never out of pain but they do help a little with getting some normal activities accomplished ,
 
"I could be a friend to you" -boggs

Nah really I can relate to what you've said of yourself.
 
Welcome , I'm new as well. Many on here struggle or struggled with opiod/opiate addiction, including ; there's a whole section with that being the main topic most of the day. :D
 
I am right there with you OP. I HATE the dependence , but the pain is worse. After years of struggling with addiction to RX Opioid's, Benzos, etc., I have come to terms with the fact that I will be taking many RX's every day for the rest of my life, just to be able to function both mentally and physically.

My daily battle is to take everything as prescribed so I don't screw myself over later! Some days I would love to feel the Euphoria or high that rec/occasional users are able to feel. Including people in my life that can take a fraction of one of my meds and feel amazing! I AM an occasional user of substances that I am not prescribed, but only for a few hours of total freedom from pain and anxiety. (I have to be careful there, as I do not have the will power that some recreational users have. I will use my entire stash chasing that high that never comes, compulsively, regardless of the amount that I have...)

For many of us, I believe, "Euphoria " is the word we use to describe not being in agony. Rx'd or not, taking a "few" extra to maybe feel great for a couple of days means WD later.

I am newly registered to BL, but have been reading daily for years. Helps to know that there are so many others like us here. I was able to at least get some of my self esteem back by knowing I am not alone.

Sorry so long. This is my first post. I promise not to be so long winded all of the time.. except maybe when I eat 2 weeks of my adderall at once!! ;)
 
Hi there and welcome to the site :)

We have a pain management section over in Healthy Living where you will find a lot of people in the same boat.

Also if your just looking to chat then try our 'Social' forum - it is a random collection of subjects and is normally light hearted.

If you have any problems with the site or need help please feel free to ask - somebody will help you out.

Same with me. I completely understand about never being out of pain but must take them to be somewhat normal and get some things accomplished. I cannot move at all without them or stop moaning due to the high pain.

I get very little accomplished but just getting myself dressed and keeping the house clean (to a way lower standard) is so difficult I feel like I deserve a gold medal each time I manage to get it done.

I take M.S Contin 75 mg a day for Chronic pain, clonazepam 1 mg for REM Sleep Behavior Disorder, 10 mg ambian
for sleep.

Do do you have any tips for depression or for managing chronic pain and illness? I am at the end of my rope.
I have noticed some things that make it worse. Stress, over exertion, bad air quality, winter/cold, repetitive noises aggravate my migraine headaches with vision loss, noise of any kind bothers me and I'm very light sensitive.

I would love to have a friend. I found the chronic pain thread over in the dark side. That is where I posted my main problem right now.
