Well, I think some people can get addicted because they are trying to mask a pain in their life.
It could be physical but it can also be mental…..pain.
I also know well have read that some people can get addicted from an injury or condition that requires an RX med.
I know when I had kidney stones that the one time I was several days getting over one and I had been taking the pain med and started to rely on it to get through the day.
I have been to the ER twice with them.
Once they let me wither in pain until I started throwing up in the trash can and finally gave me something, later saying a lot of people come in trying to get something faking it.
I could not sit still for my blood pressure to be checked because of the back pain from the stone moving….it wil get your attention and make you loose any modesty just to make the pain stop!
Saw on TV recently someone posting about the shooting in Charleston, SC that he himself had become addicted to pain meds from being shot 5-6 times in a Baltimore gang initiation.
He was talking about once he was discharged from hospital that he turned to H for the need.
But he did overcome it.
One thing is that he became able to forgive the shooter and that also helped him have the intestional fortitude to get over the hump so to speak…..
best regards
