HELP! HELP! HELP! HELP! HELP!my husband has a bad addiction to oxycontin. he has been using for atleast 2 years or longer. we have been together for 5 years. we have a 4 and 1 year old. i found out about it march of 2004. his parents use, sale and buy oxy's and etc. he also uses anything else, but oxy's are manditory for him. when i found out about it, i seen right away how dangerous it really was. it explained all of his actions in our history. i had to seperate him from me and the kids. in the mean time i have helped him into three detox centers but he left them all after several days, if that long. my son misses him terribly bad. he is a crying shame. i see how the devil drug has turned his brain into insanity. he is so far gone, that he thinks like a new born child. it is so sad because he see's where it has gotten him and where it will get him. i am the only one that supports him getting clean. i spend everyday and every hour of everyday praying, worring, digging for a way to break up that oxy cloud that smothers him. i do not use any drugs and refuse to have my children around anyone, including there father, who uses. there is violent and dramatic behavior that comes along with the addiction. i am to the point where i am getting a divorce and i dont believe in divorce!!! i love my husband so very much and want nothing more for my children and i to be with the man that help make them. BUT it is absolutely not possible. i am now trying to keep him from getting any visitaion through courts. i am horrified, because there are to many cases, even here in this small town, where people have died off oxys. such cases where two very small children, who were at there daddys for the weekend,who woke up next to their daddy dead next to them. at such a young age, the kids seen daddy shooting oxys that weekend. DOES ANYONE OUT THERE KNOW HOW TO HELP MY HUSBAND OR HOW TO HELP ME AND MY CHILDREN STAY SAFE AND AWAY FROM THIS DISASTER. IF YOU DO, PLEASE EMAIL ME AT [email protected] OR IF NOT PLEASE PRAY FOR HIM AND MY KIDS. PLEASE!   Name:the pancake man Email: Type:General Comment Date:2/4/2005 I posted a forum on my past abuse around late december of 2004. I was an abuser of oxycontin. I have been clean since the 3rd of november 2004 but still feel like I am only in the beginning stages of recovery, which I am but I was hoping for a much more speedy recovery. I just wanted to give a valuable piece of advice to anyone in the beginning stages of recovery. First I recomend Suboxone, which is a pill used to stop any form of withdrawal from opiotes. It is the first step toward success. Secondly and most importantly JUMP RIGHT OUT OF YOUR ADDICTION AND RIGHT INTO LIFE AS IT SHOULD BE. about a year ago I got clean and instantly got a job and made new friends and did everthing I could to make myself happy. It was the SMARTEST thing I ever did because I never thought about using. most of time was spent marveling at the new person I had become. I would be clean about a year now instead of three months but I made a giant mistake. I was casually driving home from work and went to see an old associate that delt with pills and relapsed. BANG, I lost m job my new friends and my recovery. I started over using again and got clean again a few months ago. only this time my recovery is not going as well because it took me three months to get off my sorry ass to do anything to make things better. If you are the type that has no motivation to get your day going due to depression all I can say is HOW BAD DO YOU WANT YOUR LIFE BACK. because if you are just sitting at home waiting for life to come back to you instead of you getting back to life things will never get any better. Get up get out and grab life. Sitting around, crying and sleeping only lead to relapse, which almost happened to me about three times but god must have been with me.If I had been busy getting my life back like the first time I quit using I wouldnt have had all these chances and thoughts of relapse. I am the type that never really cared to help people until I met the devil in the form of 40 milligrams. PLEASE TAKE MY ADVICE....AS SOON AS YOU FEEL BETTER GET OUT THERE AND GET YOUR LIFE BACK. MAY PEACE BE WITH YOU ALL. I PRAY FOR ALL OF YOU   Name:Nicole Email:[email protected] Type:Chronic Pain Story Date:2/4/2005 I have been on pain meds for almost 3 years. My doctor graduated me to Oxycontin a little over a year ago, though she did not even know what chemical it was. She thought it was a time released form of hydrocodone, but I educated her on the fact that it was oxycodone. I am now taking 80 mgs twice a day. I feel like I have lost my life and I have two beautiful daughters to take care of, but I can't do anything anymore. I want to get off of them, but I am scared. Though everyday I get stronger about getting off of them. But that is not all. My husband is also very addicted to them. He snorts 6-8 80mg tablets a day. I am so scared for his life and if he loses his job, we are going to be in trouble. He just ran out and I am so scared, he is going to be so sick and I am afraid he could die. I am so mad that my doctor put me on these I had no idea what they would do for me. I feel terrible on them and I can't function and feel terrible without them. I don't want to lose my husband either. On top of it all my girls which I love have to see us going through this and I hate it and I am so mad. Can any one offer some advice on weaning or tell me if treatment would make things more tolerable? I would appreciate any and all advice. I have no one to talk to . Please help.
