OK got that one out finally. That's a narcotic -punishable by felony action. Worse of all I was making him suffer without his ADD meds for a couple days when the rx needed to be filled. (Shout Heathen! Throw stones!) Would I have been doing myself a favor by not disclosing to my pdoc that I have an addiction to stimulants so that I might possibly be prescribed narcotics at some point?

>More true confessions...I've really been blowing it lately. But d*mnit, I just want to feel good again! Last night I skipped my Depakote dose and this morning I took 1 1/2 of DH's Adderall. I know this is serious. Once I start doing this cr*p I just don't want to stop. I tried an AA/NA meeting once and couldn't hack all the "higher power" stuff. For now, maybe confessing here will help. I AM ashamed of myself.
