OK~thanks for sharing this info:-)
I understand. I'm addicted to food and smokes.
Glad to hear that you have no opiates in the house~I don't either and yep~that's a GOOD thing.
I did request to my PCP not to give me narcs~she noted it in my chart, but we all know we can and will find them if we want. So it is with me anyway.............
I think I did get bit by the opiate snake! no doubt! One day at a time.
Take care!

> I'm physically very healthy and there is no real reason for me to use opiates other than that they make me feel good. You are probably right that I should not experiment anymore with opiates. I've read here how people get bitten by the opiate snake. Once bitten, it's hard to resist. I'd have to say that right now I have no problem really staying away. It might be wise to leave it at that. I can see how I could become a regular user. The high is just too good.
