Question by Heather: Pain-pill Addiction to Lortab & Xanax?!?help!?
Someone dear to me has been “clean” for a few years now from a Cocaine addiction. Lately, this person has been hanging out with this friend who provides Lortab & Xanax to my friend to be sold & for personal use. My friend just recently popped Lortabs & snorted 5 Xanax & has recently came clean to me that they are in fact “addicted to pills” now. This person is COMPLETELY aware that they have an “addiction” and is trying to “stop” cold turkey because they have NEVER done pills before, & they don’t want to go to Detox again. What can you do when you have friend(s) who provide you with pills & you are selling pills also. They also KNOW they need to quit hanging out with these certain individuals; yet they can’t seem to “get away” from them. I wish I knew what to do to help this person. My friend says all they think about is getting on their phone & calling up for pills & I can’t just take their cell phone. I doubt that’d even help. What can my friend do? and What can I even do???
