just what I needed to hear!

"You can take yourself through the rest of your life's journey, I'm sure, believing that your brother is dead to you. I'll do the same. However, if I ever get a call, I'll be there for you."

this from my multiple drug abuser/alcoholic older brother (62) - see "brother issues" in 'newcomers' forum....

My pill popping wife saying...

"I only take the other stuff to avoid withdrawals when I run out of Suboxone"

Okay but...

1) If you took your Suboxone as prescribed, you wouldn't run out. And...
2) I didn't know you needed a dozen Ativans and a whole 500ml bottle of liquid Vicodin (about 100 pills) in a 12h period to avoid withdrawals.

The last time I saw my ex really stoned he was passing out in the chair at his desk. So, since he never beleived me before when I told him about how he acted when he was on the pills, I took my cell and snapped some camera pics of him nearly falling backwards out of his chair.

A day or two later while in an argument about him being stoned I tell him I took pics of him and showed them to him. His response? "Anybody could see thats just me sleeping!"

Oh yeah? I retorted, "with chips hanging out of your mouth and the laundry detergent in your lap? WTF??"

Oh man, I am so glad those days are over!

answer to passing out:

"I now was diagnosed with sleep apnea"..
oh yeah, well your up all night from the pills, so they give him uppers

answer to stomach problems:

"I am now diagnosed with irratible bowel syndrome"
oh yeah, well the pills make you constipated and your having withdrawals
"thats not what my gastrologist saids"
his gastrologist told me its the pain meds

and the famous one:

he knows poster in every hospital regarding pain: "it is a patients right not to be in pain, we have to by law treat your pain" etc....and the pain chart "level 10"

Love this thread! There was once a thread that went around here about all addicts going by the same "handbook" and it read a lot like this will all the familiar excuses and statements. Still sounds like they are all reading the same handbook.

The last thing my AD said to me before she took off with AB and our granddaughter was:

"if you had only helped me when I REALLY needed it..."

Yup, I bet THAT was what did it! Gee, if we'd only known!

From my addict son: "I do drugs because I really HATED going to daycare when I was little."

(I swear, he really said that. His life was so horrible and abusive that he has to drown out all his misery and pain with drugs. I can barely live with myself knowing how I tortured him so!! )

Okay, this is so close to something my son said to me about abandoning him, but he only whips out this old story when things are really stupid.
LOL

OH I LOVE THIS ONE!

After obviously downing too many soma's:

"I wish I knew why my head is KILLING ME"

and as he's slurring his words, (eventually falling asleep at the computer with his head in his bowl of cereal):

"I didn't take anything...I am just worn slap out"

Wow, yeah, I've heard that one a few times.

"It's either take these or live my life in pain. And living in pain is actually a lot worse for the body than taking narcotics, but if that's what you want, I'd do it for you."

What a freaking cop-out. Because who' gonna say, yeah, I want you to live in pain for the rest of your life. Please do that for me. That's a load of crap.

They really do all have the same handbook, don't they??

"My phone was dead!"
after listening to his and a friends conversation for 20 minutes about how high they were, when he accidently answered.

"I wasn't asleep! I was just resting my eyes."
after i'd been repeating his name to wake up.

"I'm going to get help tomorrow."

"Fifty dollars are missing from my room. My mom took it all."

Him: "I just threw up."
Me: "Why?"
Him: "I don't know. I don't feel good.. come hold me baby."
Yaaa BS! Thanks for telling me you've been taking those stupid opiates again.

Him: "I might as well be using since everyone already thinks I am!!!"


Man, reading all his pathetic lies and manipulations makes me really really angry at him. Which is exactly what I need.

"No no if you were here I wouldn't be doing coke all the time you'd be a good influence on me"

"you're dumb for expecting me to smoke weed outside"

"It's normal to get that drunk at our age" (on all fours puking in the street, I didn't notice the other 26 year olds ending their evenings like that.........)

As I start cleaning dishes and throwing moldy food in the trash...

"Don't worry about the dishes, i'll do them later tonight. Right now I have no energy and will go take a nap".

Yeah, right. Let me just hold my breath...

tam - i'm sure you know your atty can subpoena his prescription print out & see that he didn't use that $$ for insulin ~ well of course unless the pharmacist is in on the scam & covers it up!!

Here's to praying that you are somehow able to get the legal system to work in your favor by seeing the truth - doesn't happen very often!!
PINK HUGS!
