Well...this is the first time I have admitted to any addiction. I really hope it helps me!!
I am addicted to Lortabs. I have been taking them for 2 years and I really want to stop. They are not prescribed, I buy them from friends and it is pretty expensive.

My husband had an affair and this is how I dulled the pain. Initially, I had a back injury and they were prescribed to me by a doctor and I fell in love with the feeling I get from them. I can't tell anyone about this because they will judge me and think I am a bad person.

I am looking for support and some help with the withdrawals as tomorrow will be the first day I will not have any. It has been a few months since I have gone a day without any, but I want to do this for me!

My husband and I are doing better and I do not want him to find out because we have been through so much together. I used to be addicted to cocaine about 6 years ago and I quit that, and have never looked back...this seems to have more of a hold on me and that is why I am looking for some advice from someone who may have gone through this.

Thanks for reading and I hope to hear from someone...
