Dads surgery, handling his pain meds

Sitting in the hospital now as I type this actually. He just is recovering after a Nasal polyp removal surgery. He’s fine and all I’m sure. The doctor told me he shouldn’t be driving for at least two days but That means he’s gonna have to trust me with going to get his pain meds whatever they end up being. He will obviously count them so I can’t get away with taking any in the first place. I am just a little nervous I guess and I wanted to share my little bit of worry and also motivation as he would never be able to trust me with something like this so it’s very uplifting . I’m just praying their Vicodin and Not something like Percocet.

@Bubbascoo,

I can relate. In my addiction, free porn is all over the web. And girls dressed provocatively are everywhere during the hot months. And I still can MB with just my fantasies.

Let’s just say that I’m not saving any money by abstaining. But there are much bigger rewards to sobriety. And your post reminds me of a saying I live by.

If someone is offering me free crack under my nose, it doesn’t mean that I have to take a hit.

@Bubbascoo, you have your power of choice again. You can do this! Thanks for sharing.

Way to take ownership of the situation. Articulating your thoughts here is such a good move. Stay strong, think about how amazing it will feel too come out the other side clean. That high lasts forever, pain meds are gone in a few hours. <3
