Advice for newcomers?

Hiya, this is my first time on this app. I’m currently fighting a potential addiction with Codeine. I’m prescribed it for pain and have been for over 3 years, but recently I’ve been abusing it and taking up to 16 (30mg tablets) at once, up to 3 times a day.

Any advice on what I should do next? I’ve contacted a service to help me get sober but I’m terrified of telling my GP in case they take me off it.

Thank you in advance!
