Had back surgery about 5 years ago tylenol 3 was my docs choice of pain reliever i had not taken them before but they sure numb the pain and later on i realised i was addicted but at the time it took away all the emotional pain numb every other pain the memorie of how my uncle inlaw sexualy made me play with him when i was 7 years old i never told my dad i kept it to my self i knew if i told my dad he would have beat him with an inch of his life and i did not want my dad to go to jail because my uncle said if i told my dad and if he tried to hurt my uncle he would throw my dad in jail i was only 7 so i beleived him but last summer my wake up call started was when my son brought his first girl friend home they talked about getting married and when they were going to have children and i realised if i did not stop i may not be there to see my sons get married or to hold my first grandbabys and i started to tapper on my doc advice but it was very hard i thought about giving in lots of times and then i got a call about my cousin brian he commited suicied he left behind a daughter and he was on H and codin what ever he got his hands on he took and his daughter came to spend afew days with me and she told me she hated her dad that if he loved her how could he do that leave her like that" and like a bolt of lighting that was a very big wake up call it gave me the determination to beat this i was not going to rob my sons of there mother i had no right to take that away and put them through what that dear little girl was going to feel and have to face all her life so as hard as it was i tappered and iam 6 months clean and its the best feeling in the world.
