About 10 years ago I went to the dentist in pain and he gave me vicodin. It had me on cloud 9 and I liked it. Well that's where it started and on and off I've been taking hydrocodone ever since. |

4 years ago i met my soul mate and married a wonderful man of God. I, myself was in church playing the piano and the whole 9 yards and was addicted to pain pills. I felt like a hypocrite. I would even have my husband go get them for me. It was awful. He didn't know what to do and neither did I. We just prayed. I guess I just got sick of being sick! I took my last pill! |

Many times I tried to quit and I'd always relapse. Then Ifound something that helped me. I realized I could not do it. God had to do it through me. It has not been easy! It's been about 6 months since my last pill and i still have sick days! But God has sustained me. I have good days too. I take it one minute at a time. I never thought I would be free from addiction, but now I'm living. I'm really living! |

Don't look at the big picture...it will only discourage you. Just take it one minute at a time. Talk to anyone who will listen...That is something i had to learn..(being in church, I was ashamed). I am just now getting to the point where I can freely talk about it with my husband and slowly i'm talking to others. Talk, Talk, Talk! When you have nothing left to say. Talk some more! And when no one seems to be listening you can always talk to God. |
