Mother with no where to turn
Since then we has developed a drug and alcohol
addiction
and has been in rehab at least 4 times. He has anxiety and depression also. Trying to find a psychiatrist or anyone who can help has been a struggle. We finally found an
addiction
psychiatrist and she retired.

Taking two 30mg co-codamol pills permanently
Is
addiction
bad by definition? Should I stop with codamol and return to suffer just because "opioids are dangerous" by textbook definition? Please let me know if you're experienced in this. Joel

Morphine usage and control of pain. One pain sufferers journey.
Some have remarked on
addiction
to morphine, excessive use of morphine, effectiveness of morphine etc. I have suffered with Chronic Pain Syndrome since 1989 following a fall on my back and disc herniation of the l3, l4 s1 area of the spine.

Embarrassment of dealing with extreme pain
It didn't take long to become dependent again and fortunately due to the previous
addiction
of 20+ years I was quick to nip it in the bud before it ruined my life and made worse the lives of the people who came into contact with me. I feel I don't have to bang my head against a brick wall anymore.

Any Ideas How To Combat Persistent, Overwhelming and Compulsive Urges?
If the urges persist at that point (which is often the case), I lack the strength to resist, so I dreadfully give in to some little thing that makes it so much more compelling, and then it just becomes overwhelming to the ‘point of no return’... and I end up back at my
addiction
.

Day 3 complete - Update on hubby's progress giving up the booze
Hubby is still waiting to hear from the alcohol
addiction
charity, that the Hepatology Alcohol nurses have referred him too. So hubby has been left to his own devices for now. As you will have seen from my previous posts he has been cutting down.

logging off. have a great night
here's today's second poem. for those of you who don't know, the symbol of a semi-colon that is tattooed on someone usually is an allusion to the awareness of suicide, depression,
addiction
, and other mental illnesses.

End of my tether with RLS
I have been on the same dose for years and not been taking more and more of them which would have been a sign of
addiction
. I am so depressed and am really struggling to carry on. My whole life has become a tiny space which is controlled on a daily basis by managing my symptoms.

Has anybody taken Subutex (Suboxone, Buprenorphine to help come off Codeine? What was it like for you and what were the withdrawals like?
I knew then that I had an
addiction
because I didn't want to stop taking them. They just made me so relaxed and euphoric. Anyway 2 year later and I am no longer addicted I am dependant. I don't take them because I enjoy the feeling I get I take them because I can't bear the thought of withdrawals.

Meals for single guy cooking for himself??
My fallback is it’s an
addiction
I think 🤨 but at night I’ll wake up and crave sweets. And if I have lunch cakes I’ll eat that. But I got injured at work and due to covid19 my knee surgery kept getting pushed and so I couldn’t do much. So I gained weight.

I'm living comfortably
When anxiety goes up, I layer up like an
addiction
. The more stress,the more layers. Like a smoker, more stress, more smokes. Mine is nylon though. It can get warm at times. Lol. My wife and kids are kind of confused and kicking the obsession is not good. Tried once before and it was bad.

Day 10 - Hubby alcohol reduction
Yesterday hubby had his first telephone appt with our local
addiction
charity. The guy hubby spoke to is in recovery himself and told hubby that he knows exactly how he is feeling. Hubby chatted to him for about half and hour.

Day 21 Hubby update - looks like he might be heading back to square one
Then hubby has a Hepatology review in July The alcohol
addiction
counsellor's want hubby to join a Microsoft teams group on Monday. Hubby missed it last week due to his heavy drinking last Sunday. Hubby is also a technophobe, so is very unsure about how to use online devices.
