bsj, i am sorry but i don't know ANY doctor, anywhere who would prescribe oxycodone for depression. this is not because they are afraid to, but because it's not in your best interest. that is their job, to look out for your best interest. my job is to make sure that you are following your prescription, and not refilling it to frequently (if it has refills). i am aware that it is alleviating your pain, but your pain may take ever increasing quantities to bring under control. and as rxnurse stated, and she is correct...opiate withdrawl CAN kill you. if you choose this medication anyway, fine. it is your life. just don't twist the facts to tout your own cause.
