How dare u say that because someone chose to be an addict that they are stuck that way! That is SO far from the truth! An addict can get help and become clean and sober and live a great life and be a GREAT parent! I've done it and I am living proof that addicts can change, they just have to want to change! I chose to receive help and found out I was...

I take 30 or so a day, I have a nerve disorder, but I definitively take more then I need. It started with Kidney Stones, though, which are gone now. I've been having pains in my kidney area, that's how I ended up here, I started getting worried. How did 100 a day effect that? (And man, do I sympathize with being embarrassed going to buy more. I hate to admit that I split it between 3 different pharmacies.) Also, does it make you feel sick? The Tylenol 1s? I also have Social Anxiety,...
This is not Autumn. It is her mom. I have been dealing with her for yrs. She tried the methadone clinic. She stopped going after eight months. She stole again. The law just can't seem to get enough to lock her up so she can stop this stuff. I have tried everything to help her. Now she is on the streets. No, that doesn't make me feel good. So I need to know about this chemical and get it to the U.S. Oh course, it will be too late for my daughter if it ever gets to the U.S. I don't...
