Vicodin Addiction Help

I wonder how many little old ladies are running around with an addiction to vicodin. I know I have seen a lot of older women at 12 step meetings with prescription drug addictions. Some of them started out taking pain medication prescribed by their physician. Then one day the drug failed to ease the pain like in usually did so they took an extra dose. The thing is when drugs like vicodin are not taken like they were prescribed the person will build up a tolerance when taking more and more of the drug to get the desired effect. When people start doing this you can almost bet that they may for a fact have a vicodin addiction.

This is a shame because maybe it could have been avoided if they were better informed about this type of medication. Or better yet maybe they could have tried an alternative to vicoin in the very beginning for instance, they could have tried to ease their pain using Motrin or Tylenol then they could have avoided and unwanted vicodin addiction.

If you or someone you know or you think you may need some vicodin addiction help I would recommend that you seek help immediately. Help can come in the form of 12 step meetings or vicodin addiction rehab.

It takes a lot of courage to admit that one can no longer use drug successfully. Once a person is able to admit that they have been beaten then help is possible but until then forget it. One has to surrender completely if you do this then you may be ready to get the help you need. Do not delay your life literally may depend on it people are dying everyday from some kind of drug overdose do not become another statistic get help now.

If you choose to go to vicodin addiction treatment you will be detoxed from vicodin medically. This process is performed by medically trained professionals. They will administer prescription medications to help ease the pain of vicodin withdrawal. For most individuals this process normally takes around 4 or 5 days. Now when you are completely detoxed from this drug I recommend that you continue your recovery in residential treatment. Once there you will meet others like yourself who are trying to stop using drugs. There you will attend lectures, 12 step meetings group therapy, and one on one individual drug addiction therapy. This is all to prepare you to be mentally stronger and that you do not use drugs again as soon as you leave rehab.

Good luck

I am in recovery myself and I like to write addiction. It is my goal to give others information on how they can stop using, overcome drug addiction and find a new way to live without drugs.
