dude, wtf are you talking about?
painkillers do require escalating dosages and anyone who is on chronic treatment for pain will inevitably become strongly dependent on them and require increasing potency/dosages over time.
this is the big problem with painkillers, however as of yet they are the only reasonable treatment for chronic pain... so until they make something better those who are in chronic pain need them to function...
sad but true. everything in life is a compromise, if your pain is bad enough you will make compromises (a la dependency/side effects) to control it so you can lead a normal life. i'd rather see someone control his/her pain with fentanyl patches than alcohol.
Man, if you need me to clarify my ordeal with pain and what pain killers can and will make you do then you just need to reread the post...
The whole thing was about getting dependent and addicted and needing more and not being able to function or take care of youself, then you just basically said the same thing in less words and obviously less experiance with it. So thats what im fucking talking about...I was already on 30mg 4 times a day on top of vicodin and soma...there was nothing else for me besides Cymbalta and lyrica which are for depressed people with psychological pain...
Like your last 5 posts Ive seen in several threads have either contributed nothing or made 0 sense.... most of the time it seems your just trying to sound cool or funny like the neptune flower thing...lmao so funny.
Go get addicted to morphine and soma and dont eat or shit for 2 weeks and a half and just lie on a couch in such severe pain that the only thing that will make it go away is cooking down your dirty crushed morphine pills in a spoon so you can inject it to be relieved long enough to take care of your family and be a man....then come tell me how it works. Id love to see you withdrawal off it and tell me how it all happens and what is going on from the bed.
And there is more than just narcotics for pain, shows what you know, there is anti depressants, reflexology, ultra sound, acupuncture, hypnosis, physical therapy...and probably half a dozen more things I cant even think about right now...not that other methods dont exist and pain killers are the great gap filler. Sometimes the pain is just that bad and its all that will "work" is a painkiller to make you just forget and finally rest or do something productive...
So dont say someone was lecturing, I was telling the person with chrohns what not to do if their on oxy their pain must be bad...and that is a bitch that will make you do some dumb shit..., and I said my friend was willing to pay that much, did I say I sold them? No I actually gave them away for diabetic needles in return.
Like I said pain will make you do anything for relief so maybe you have to convince yourself you are accustomed to it to find something else to live for and find something in life bigger than yourself...
sounds like you do need to reread posts and notice detail...because pain does apply to me and I was not in any way judging anyone, I been there I cant.
