Hello everyone!
I've been lurking around here for a few months now. I figured it's about time to create an account and start posting. I am 30 years old and I am from California. My habit is pain pills. I pretty much like them all, but my favorite is Percocet 10/325 or oxycodone 20mg. I've been using off and on since I was 19 years old. When I was 21, I got pregnant and I quit cold turkey, and even after I had the baby, I didn't pick it back up. Occasionally I smoked weed, which I have a card for, but I stayed away from pills until I lost my home and had to move back in with my mom when I was 24. That was 2009.
My mom took Vicodin 10/500's, Xanax, Soma, Klonopin, and an array of other meds and always shared. I favored the Vicodin and Klonopin, but usually took it once or twice a week. When I got a job and moved away from my moms house, I stopped again BUT I started drinking heavily. Then in 2011 I got pregnant again and again quit everything cold turkey. I switched companies when child # 2 was 4 months old and moves to the town I'm in now. Fast forward to September 2013. Up until then I had been pretty straight. No booze, no pot, and occasional pills, but really really rare. In Sept 13, I had a tummy tuck done and for the pain they sent me home with norco 10/325- 2 tab every 4 to 6 hours and Roboxin 500mg- 1 tab 4 times a day. That started the path to where I am today.
Well if you've read this far, congratulations! You've got a "shortened" version of my up and down life. Now, I have a prescription for Percocet 10/325, 4 times a day, 120 pills a month. I also get oxys 20mg from a family member, and norco 10/325 from another family member. I usually take anywhere from 60-100 mg of the oxys at once, usually 3-5 times a day. My 120 pill script lasts about 6 days and I'm always scared of the time I run out and I can't find anything else. I've got a deep seeded addiction and honestly it scares me. Besides the obvious health issues I am putting myself into, it doesn't affect my daily life. I work. I take care of my kids, my husband, and my house. I don't know. I know I need to cut back and eventually quit completely, but mentally, it is the hardest thing I've ever had to do.
Well there is my story. Thank you for coming this far, and I look forward to reading others reply, answering any questions anyone may have and getting to know some! Have a great night everyone!
