Painkiller Addiction?

Question by gocats2009: painkiller addiction?
I have experimented recreationally with painkillers off and on for the past 6 years. I’ll go off and on with them and then switch to something else. Recently (the past month) I have been taken them about 5 days a week and sometimes doing an OC 80 or hydrocodone tens whatever is available. I havent done them for two days and now ive been sore and I ate 50 mg of hydrocodone tonight and it made me feel better but I didn’t really have any euphoria or get very high at all. Am i building a high tolerance or risking any sort of addiction now? I dont feel like i have to take them i just enjoy them alot

Once you start getting a tolerance you are becoming addicted. You are going to have to keep doing larger amounts to get high and then it gets out of control. If you begin to feel nausea, cold sweats, fever, diarrhea, general body/muscle pain, and feel like you have no energy then you are having withdrawals. Pllleeeassse stop now while it is not too bad!! The more your dosing, the worse the withdrawals. My husband became addicted to painkillers and then started doing heroin after injuring his back. He is not a p*ssy at all and has told me that once your tolerance gets that high and you start having withdrawals it is the worst thing you could ever have. I have seen him sick he looks like he is about to die. It is like having the worst flu ever times 100. I don’t know you but I know what drugs have done to my family so PLEASE stop now!!

You are addicted. The soreness you described is withdrawal. OC 80s are opiates, the same category as heroin. Ween yourself off them (take less and less and less until you go off them, taking only enough to allow the withdrawal process to be as painless as possible). Or just go to a rehab. This will get serious. If you allow yourself to continue to chase the high or euphoria, you will get hooked on higher doses or harder drugs. Stop while you still can.
