CZZ74, I apprecite you posting even though it wasnt popular opinion. I felt less alone. I tried to write it in a way that wouldnt be too offensive & got attacked anyway. I just felt like we have this negative imagine hanging over us enough. Some days I would give anything to get a high off my pain medication. Just to be taken away from this for awhile. Does that make me a bad person? I dont think so. I wont drink a drop of alcohol because of the mixture with my meds. And I dont misuse my prescriptions. Yet there are people out there labeling me & my friends. I dont like it. Take care & thank you for making me feel less alone.
Hugs, Denny
