I have chronic neck pain and that was one of the reasons I got so hooked on opiates, so as you could imagine when I stopped taking them the pain got worse. I have to live with the pain probably for the rest of my life and I have to treat it with non narcotic methods because I can't just take one vicodin or one percocet because if I take one my addiction is back and im down again. After a while the pain does get less because your brain will get back to normal and will not crave the pain meds like it once did because the addiction can amplify normal pain and make it seem much worse than it really is.
