Painkillers (4)
A month after starting my new job I had to take a few days off to get my wisdom teeth out. After the operation, I was prescribed over the counter painkillers. I immediately began abuse them telling the doctor I was allergic in order to get more. I also found that my mother had some Vicodin left from an operation and was also taking Xanax on occasion to help her sleep. I began stealing pills from her and taking them all the time.
By December 2000 I had to quit my job, broke up with my boyfriend and moved into an apartment that was located on top of my parents business. I was going to back to college in the spring and decided to work at my parent’s restraint to save money. Soon, I began hanging out with the local crowd: drinking, eating painkillers, and smoking marijuana. I was introduced to OxyContin, a painkiller given to terminally ill cancer patients, and began using it on a regular basis. I would have to pop six or seven painkillers to get the same effect of snorting one 20 mg OxyContin that, chemically, is basically synthetic heroin. OxyContin was extremely potent but the withdrawal was like physical torture. At first, I didn’t understand why I was feeling the way I felt, coming off the drug, but I caught on as the sickness got worse. I was physically addicted.
