Re: The addict within...

Lyn,
Its tough when those things are around you constantly , it tempts and ****s with your mind. Its like a little demon saying, "there are the vics, stealing 6 or 10 tabs, they'll never know." Trust me, I've done the same, by stealing from medicine cabinets from friends and family. Gawed, don't you feel like a junkie doing that? I sure do. Luckily, you are on the Naltrexone. Maybe try getting another job so the temptation is not in front of your face on a daily basis. It'll help you. I didn't become a pharmacist because I knew that it will destroy me. I see it all the time with pharmacists and doctors, the addiction. It will never be easy in any circumstance and you can do is take it one day at a time.

Be strong!
