it sounds shitty, but i'm just waiting for my brother to OD or worse
. He started out shopping for doctors because he has a fused disc? and thought, "hey I my as well get some cheap pills out of this." That was over 5 years ago. Since then he's been up and down on opiate dosages, in and out of out-patient rehab programs for that. Also he's addicted to benzos. The psych doctor prescribed him those bc he's "depressed from his sore back."
The worst part is, I'm the only one that knows he was bullshitting from the very beginning... Laughing on his way to the doctor about how they're going to up his 'script. And then riding to the Pharm to pick up those horrid things. I can't even look at him anymore bc I'm disgusted with what they've done to him, myself, his friends, and my family. He's burnt almost every bridge he has and for what? Some FUCKING OPIATES!
Now he's going to the methadone clinic and thinks thats helping, but at the same time he's just taking Kpins to get the high he's craving. He does the same thing about every 4-6 months, "Man I'm quitting pills (opiates)" Then he'll just switch to benzos for another 4-6 months "man i'm quitting pills (benzos this time)" then start the cycle over.
I could rant for hours on this subject. I really need to write it all down and give him a copy of it to read... He probably wont though.
