Curious how long you took it ,
If it caused any long term effects,
If you quit or still take it.
I am not the DEA!!!!!!
And we are anonymous, so if there are any persons willing to share, great. Also, If you know someone.
I don’t need the "Canned" answers, such as liver damage and such. Looking for personal experiiences. I have a family member and a friend who both take too much. And I am acquainted with a few others. Mostly younger. Are there neurological effects over the long haul?
My family member has been taking 3-4 lorcet a day for 5 years. And muscle relaxants, and Ativan all at the same time, but seems to get on with life. I mean how good can this be?
Any insights and thoughts would be appreciated. NOTE I have been on every addiction and informational site. I am LOOKING for personal experiences.
I have put this in 3 categories, to see where I might get the most response . thanks for your understanding!!!
thanks,
Thanks for the answers so far!
Thank you.
I have both Vicodin and Ativan here. I only take them ocasionally because I don’t want to build up a tolerance or run out of pills. Can’t smoke weed anymore, so these pills are my only way to get high.
I suppose it’s ok if you don’t take too many every day and become addicted. It’s easy to become addicted to these drugs because they can give you a buzz.

i was prescribed vicodin after i was in a car accident. i took it for about 3 weeks. i did not have any issues when i stopped taking it. perhaps i did not take it long enough to experience the adverse affects you have mentioned.

Ohh,those damned opiate based drugs.Listen ,here in downeast Maine we have experienced an epidemic.It started with small pills(percs,vics etc.)and grew rapidly into stronger meds which I will not list.After that heroin was all that was left.Having said that I’ve witnessed good people do horrible things in order to feed their habit.The lucky ones made it to prison.Fortunately there has been an extreme growth in the recovery community in our town.It’s a battle that will never be won but together we can have some semblance of a normal life.Good luck and remember you can’t make someone quit they have to arrive to that conclusion on their own.You might try leaving some literature laying around for them to read.

Before my total hip replacement I took four loratab a day for two years.One every four hours.Most times when I had to drive I would only take half every three hours.I only took it as was written.I was getting my prescription filled one and the pharmacist started telling me about how much people like it because it makes them feel good.He said they took 3 or more at a time.I had no Idea.The only thing they ever did for me was help with the pain.I guess some people abuse it and that must be what gets them in trouble.

Pain killers can have dangerous moral side effects. How do they get pain killers? Pain killers are expensive. People do things they never did before in their lives to get pain killers. Don’t be surprised if you see a moral decline. Common symptoms of addition are lying to family members and stealing. Pointing out the moral side affects may be a more effective. Hurting ever one you know and, losing all your friends is way worse then dieing young.
