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.
Hi, thanks for sharing. I find the easy access to nurofen plus the worst part about beating it. If it wasn’t so easy to buy i think more people would have a better success of beating it. Im pretty certain it’s the nurofen plus that caused all my stomach problems. Im glad youv opened up to you wife and mother. I haven’t been that brave yet and having told a single person yet apart from on here. Good luck to you.
Thankyou for your reply I really appreciate it. Yes I think you are right in find the reason why. Half of the time the codeine makes me feel queasy and a bit ill so not sure why I crave the feeling so much ????. I will try find a support group. Thankyou and good luck to you.
Hi everyone I’d love some help. Im a 28 year old female and iv been addicted to codeine for a few years now. I come off it ALL the time. I spend a few weeks off it then then go straight back on it. I get a pescription from my doctors for the 30mg ones which they happily give me but they only last me 2 weeks I that. And then I end up takin nurofen plus until I can get another pescription but my stomach is a mess. Im in pain daily. Coming off them isn’t a problem, a few days of hell cold turkey but it’s after a couple of weeks I cant help but crave that feeling for it. Im so scared I’m going to die from takin them it’s made my aniexty 100 times worse. Would love some advice.
