I’m married and have 2 kids. And I hate hiding it from them but I find it so hard to be open and admit iv been struggling when I’m the “strong one” to everyone around me. I have had a bad few years and I think the codeine probably helped block alot of it out. But I look at my kids every day and think it’s Cruel that I’m doing this and they could lose me for it. I do feel better for opening up on here and I do know I need to start facing up to problems now and stop using codeine instead. Thanks for your reply it helped.
Good luck in your journey.
