So I have been using OTC codeine and prescription strength for the last couple of months for a chronic condition but it’s starting to happen recreationally. I have told my GP who isn’t concerned despite paracetamol in it as well and my psych. I tried to stop on my own, but its more difficult. I feel that that there is more to it and then I have changed again and I dont wanna stop as its been a coping mechanism since I have lost a lot over the last ten years.
But there’s bIG problem, I am student social worker in my first year, I domt want to tell the Uni in case I get kicked out as I won’t be able to reapply again or elsewhere due to funding situation. I never use more than needed while I’m out at uni and never have done, if I have done it’s always been one or two over limit a rarely a huge amount.
my psych doesn’t really care, he was like, oh well just wait for your apt with your psychologist doctor in a few months and didnt seem interested. I want to tell my parents the truth but they didn’t seem that worried and laughed it off. “Well ya not collapsed on the couch, we’ve seen you do it“
so I am left just carrying on as if it’s normal.
it doesn’t affect things in life as it’s quite explainable, she looks a bit drowsy “Oh that’s her long day, she’s busy, she didn’t sleep to well” and I dont act silly on it, I mostly look normal slightly tired just listening to music so no-one bats an eyelid.p and I ain’t always aware I have done it till it’s too late, but the dosages are getting larger as the months progress.
