    Default Taking Xanax

    This is somewhat of a rant.....

    I'm really annoyed when I see and/or hear about strippers taking xanax just because it gives them a bit of a buzz. And it bothers me even more when they go get a script for the damned things from the doc and brag about lying, saying they have an anxiety dissorder.

    Well I do have a REAL anxiety dissorder, as well as REAL panic attacks, and I take them as perscribed and don't get "high" on them....in fact they bring me back down from a feeling like I'm dying, having a heart attack, going insane, can't see straight, to the feeling of being "me" again, and being able to physically function again.

    I guess the bottom line is that when people make shit up so they get pills to get high, it makes it very difficult for people like me who have a real and serious medical condition. Not to mention it's embarassing to describe to people what you are perscribed b/c they assume you are a "junkie."

    ARGH!
    I'd grab my trumpet and I'd do a stripper sound, like the old Louis Armstrong, real raspy. And the people would go nuts! Then I knew that the sexual, sensual, guttural sound, that throbbing sound, is where it's at.

    I'm with you. I have a script for Vicodin. I do NOT take it to get high. I take it when absolutley necessary when my reg meds do not do enough. (I have a pancreatic condition and when it seizes..I can do nothing but curl up and rock in the corner screaming in pain)
    I've heard of girls lying to get vicodin scripts too. Or worse...the very few that found out somehow that I have one start hounding me to give them some of mine(hell no bitch..I'm not a dealer and these are pills I actually need at times so piss off)

    But I hate it when my script runs out (about once a year I get it refilled) and I have to ask my dr. for more. He always gives it to me without questioning..but I can t help wondering if he thinks I'm one of those junkie girls. Hearing girls ask for it constantly makes me feel like one when I ask for it. Even though I'm not, and I have a legitimate reason.

    Thanks for posting this. Alot of people don't realize that Xanax is highly addictive and dangerous when used in a way that it was not intended to be used. I've seen alot of bad things come out of improper Xanax and other prescription drug use.

    I had to prove to a doctor I wasn't an addict and see him 3 times in two weeks to prove I wasn't asking for them because I was lying to get some pills.. and that I really needed them. Addicts make it harder for me to get my pills.

    I get being annoyed at girls who are fucked up at work, I feel like that every night. But what is all the anger towards addicts? Does anyone actually believe that people CHOOSE to become addicted to drugs? It makes me think you really have no understanding what some people have to battle. You might feel like it's hard for you because it makes it a tiny bit harder to get your prescriptions, but trust me, it fucking sucks for the addict in a much worse way. Some empathy, people, really.

    I was an addict once (not to pills though) and I'll tell you right now - I sure as hell chose to be an addict. I'm not going to be silly and blame someone or something else for my addiction. I chose to take the stuff. Then I chose to take more. My addiction wasn't a disease, it wasn't forced upon me, it wasn't someone else's fault. My addiction was purely and simply my choice and my fault.

    It's not like someone forced the pills down these people's throats. Nor did they force the meth up my nose.

    Yes, it's hard being an addict. But addicts (in most cases) only have themselves to blame. And I say this being a recovering addict.

    You aren't the only person who has battled an addiction. Perhaps you did choose to become an addict, only you can say for sure.

    But I know for certain that many people take prescription drugs and become addicted to them without even realizing it. Hell, plenty of pain patients become addicts from years of HAVING to take the shit. They didn't choose to be in pain and they didn't choose to become addicted to the medication.

    There's a huge difference between something like crystal meth and something like Xanax or pain meds. Doctors give that shit out like candy, and then people are surprised when some turn up addicted? It's a ridiculous notion that we all choose to put ourselves in such a horrible place. Just because you didn't choose it doesn't mean you aren't responsible for it, but it does kind of take it out of your hands a bit at times.

    You, LillithMorrigan, don't have to be sympathetic to anyone. I really didn't expect you would be. But, perhaps some others might take the judgmental attitudes down a notch and give others a break, especially when they don't have firsthand experience as an addict.

    I dont think anyone is saying they dont have sympathy(cant have empathy if you havent gone through it yourself) for addicts.
    What I dont have sympathy for are the girls who INSIST on being addicts. Who brag about what they've taken that day and bug up everyone ass for more. Who think they are cool because they have managed the unbelievable feat of swallowing a pill. THESE are the people who make MY life more difficult on many levels. THESE are the girls who make people think strippers are all fucked up party girls.THESE are the girls who make it more difficult for those of us who actually NEED the prescriptions they have decided are "party favors".

    So..actual addicts with a problem that they want to kick...I have all the sympathy in the world.

    Party girls irritating everyone every second who think drugs are just the coolest thing in the world and never talk about anything else....nope. No sympathy. Not a drop.

    Well yeah, of course that is annoying.

    Ftr, empathy just means you put yourself in the other person's shoes, you don't have to have gone through something to be empathetic towards it.

    Well..I thnk this particular thing(addiction) is REALLY difficult to truly do that with if you havent experienced it. I can try all I want..but I dont profess to know exactly what a true addict goes through. So I would never be bold enough to say I can empathize. Because honestly..I cant. I may think I know what addiction feels like...but in truth. I probably dont.

    Thank you all so much for your opinions....whatever side of the fence anyone is on, I agree this is something that definitely needs to be discussed.

    Sorry if it was too much of a rant :p
