I left the computer along time ago.
I put the kids to bed.
Watched a few t.v. show's.
And then went to bed. Only to have the feeling that i wanted to take another pill.
Couldnt sleep and the debating on taking another pill, when i know that i shouldnt, kept me awake.
So i decided to get on the board to find some help. Help from people that may be going through the same thing. Help from friends that i met that have written to me to help get that feeling out of my mind.
And all i read are horrible things about fighting and yelling and getting upset.
What would this word come to if ALL addicts could just get along????
I guess it was bound to happen on here at some point. But i didnt think it would happen to the people that it did. I'M TRULY SCARED NOW. I dont want this to happen to me when i make it to that world of RECOVERY!!!!!!!
Anyone want to talk??? I could use it right now.
Your Friend, Christina
Hey Christina,
What's up?
What's up?
Hi Christina-
I'm fairly new to the board, and I hope I never fall into the BS. But remember, even addicts are human and we fight, disagree, and piss and moan! I still thank God everyday that I found this board!
Went to my first NA meeting tonight; caught s*** from one person there because I'm tapering and not going CT. I told her I'm afraid of seizures and she got all high and mighty on me. SHE quit CT and told me to do the same!!! I was ticked! However, I am going back to the meetings on Wednesday and also I have an appointment on Wednesday with a counselor who will hopefully give me the REAL scoop on CT vs. tapering.
If anyone has any real knowledge of getting off Fiorinol, I'd be glad to listen!
Hang in there Chrissy!!!!!

Christina, the board will calm down soon. Everybody's in the same boat -- and these disagreements happen in relationships. Emotions are just running a little high. Be easy on yourself.
I could have placed all the money i have in the bank that YOU would be the one that would post back!!!!!
Your awsome!!!!!!! Thanks.
Im just having this horibble urge to take another pill. Not sure what set it off. Im trying to remember what i was doing when it popped into my head.
Im not sure if "triggers" are involved at this point cause im not off them all the way yet! Wish i was .
Im dowm to only about 2-3 a day and sometimes its only a half of one that im taking.
Feeling realy depressed and angry at myself for lieing to basically everyone that i know. Its a horrible feeling inside and maybe thats the reason im still awake.
I might be a user of pain pills, and feel numb half the time , but the constant feeling of hurting the people that love me and care and have had all this faith in me is killing me and hurting me worse and worse everyday. NO PAIN MED> IS TAKING THAT AWAY.!!!!!!!!!
Thanks For Listening to me tonight. What time is it there?? Forgot were you lived. Sorry!!!

Chris, the power of forgiveness is very, very strong. It will come in time. You will find and experience forgiveness as you find a way and the strength and the willingness to forgive others.
Fiorinol or Fioricet is prescribed for headaches. It can come with codeine but the ones I've been taking don't have codeine. It's ingredients are butalbital (a barbiturate), tylenol and caffeine.
About 12 years ago I went to a doctor who prescribed them. They worked like a charm on my migraines. I took them as prescribed, then occasionally for recreational use.
Soon I was refilling my Rx way too often, and I knew I was in trouble. Then my sister found a bunch of sites on the web that you can order Fiorinol from, no evaluation, no questions asked, just a Visa number required!!!
Anyway, I've been ordering for about 3 years. 500 pills at least once a month at $317 per order.
My liver and my Visa bill really took some hits!

Hey I am send ing you some pic's,check your e-mail in a few. Anyway, I knwo what you are going through. Mind games. The mental part will get better with time. The physical will only last for so long. I got through it last year Cold turkey with Vicodin. I found out I was pregnant and quit just like that. i took 500 mg of tylenol to sleep and prenatal vitamins once a day. Try and get a good multi vitamin and some B-12 lozegnes. They dissolve under your tongue and work great for energy. Try and exercise as much as you can. I know you are post surgery so don't kill yourself. Exercise does help and so does vitamins. Take 800 mg of motrin whenever you feel the need to take a perc. and keep yourself busy.. It does get easier with time. I have been there and done it one to many times. Hot bathes and benadryl works great for sleep. Christina, it can be done. I know it is always on your mind and hard to stop thinking about the"pills" but it will get easier. Take care! Rae
Hey check your e-mail. I just sent ya some pic's. I am off to bed now. Midnight. Let me know how you are doing tomorrow. Hey you are never bugging me. E-amil me anytime,girl. Good Night!!!! Rae
