Vicodin


A friend of mine mentioned recently that his son was having an operation. "An operation? Is it serious?" like any operation isn't serious. Turns out that the son suffers from back/neck pain. Turns out the son has been taking Vicodin for pain. The doctor says that he has to be off of it by the end of the year (that's one more month for folks reading this in the future).

So Vicodin. Happy Pills.

Trying to be helpful, I mentioned that one can easily become addicted, and that it might be a difficult time for him and his son. Then came the shocker. The son's been taking fifteen a day! 15! My next thoughts were about him possibly going to a "rebound drug" like alchohol, so more cautions were expressed. "Oh, he has that problem too."

I've been there. Hell, I could still be there (bftgoG).
