Is it bad enough yet, or are you going to let it get worse?

I ended up OD’ing once. I also once woke in my own vomit from too many bars.

Two clear paths ahead of you. One of them is where you end up completely strung out IF YOU ARE LUCKY. The other path is you woman-up. Do something drastic to save your life. Sit your parents down and come clean. Tell them you need help, then be ready to follow some direction from people that can help. See your med doctor and get your butt into a rehab or 12-step program. Our friend on the boards (Stickyone) also battled a pill addiction. He made one call to his doctor, fessed up and I think he’s around 9-12 months sober today. It all starts with one step, letting out the secret and the decision to face it. What the hell else you have better to do...die on the couch in an overdose? Think it can’t happen to you? One day it’s too much and that’s it.
