pahunkboy -> I need some advice (7/20/2013 7:13:15 AM)
A friend keeps pestering me for my pills. I dont know how many ways I say no. She cant seem to take no for an answer. We did "party" from time to time. If I take the phone off the hook- she will call the neighbor I have dinner with to see if I am there. If that neighbor has any hint that I have ever "partied" my dinners will be cut off. Also if this gals BF finds out- I will be in trouble. He is recovering AA and is against parties of any type. I dont mind being nice to someone- but I do have my limits. And while I try to be helpful- dont ask me every day to pull a rabbit out of my hat. ??

Tell her you will tell her boyfriend if she asks again. Or, tell her you don't get them anymore... damn doctors. Done deal. Oh... and lock that shit up where it can't be found and don't tell people you have it.

You have to clearly say NO! Saying my medication is needed and although we've partied before, I cannot afford to do so, I need them.

I think I am going to blame it on the shortage. There IS actually a shortage of it. The govt only allows a certain amount to be made. I had to go to 6 places to fill it. A buddy who is also on the same med- having trouble as well. This happens at least once a year. The kicker is- if she would just go to a Psychiatrist- she could get her own, locally the P-drs like to put EVERYONE of those scripts because they know the patient will come back for more. ...and it is true- I do need these for myself. Often I have a 3rd party hold pills for me- so I do not use them up to fast. There is only one person I trust to do that tho.

She ain't no friend. She's an addict who would use her friendship to score pills. Either tell her bf or tell her to quit harassing you. And just drop her from your life.

Umm..hate to be the "narc" here...but isn't it illegal to give or be in possession of Rx that is not your own? Isn't that the differ between me legally having amphetamines (adderall) in my purse and in my system then my best friend?

That's the truth. I have to take a lot of pain pills myself, and I have total strangers hitting me up when I go out. And what TMIK said holds true. It's both a state and federal offense to be handing out your meds. Don't do it, and if you have to, drop dime to her BF. She doesn't need pills, she needs help.

njlauren -> RE: I need some advice (7/20/2013 8:44:10 AM)
You aren't doing her any favors, she is an addict, and all you are doing is enabling her. I agree, talk to her BF if you think he can help, but she is not really a friend, she is a user,period. And if she gets caught with the pills and it gets traced back to you, not only might you have an angry BF wanting to kick the crap out of you, you might find you are up to your neck in shit from the state and feds, they don't take kindly to people giving others things like pain pills and uppers and such.

Tell her if she asks you again, you'll call the cops. You may want to buy a lockbox for home if you can't trust your friends. But if you take more than you ought to of them, you're as bad as her. Call the doctor and tell him you're misusing them. Have him find you something that works without the pleasurable side effects.

I hide my pills when I have company...I need my Norco and Tramadol for the fibromyalgia pain. No one thinks of hitting the other scripts that is for my mental health.

Yup. quote: ORIGINAL: pahunkboy The kicker is- if she would just go to a Psychiatrist- she could get her own, locally the P-drs like to put EVERYONE of those scripts because they know the patient will come back for more. Here's the thing: addicts lie. As Master says: An alcoholic will steal your wallet and then admit it when you can't find it. An Addict will steal your wallet and then help you look for it when you say it's missing. (He is an ex-addict) She may already have a prescription and won't go to the P-Dr because she knows that drug monitoring programs will pick up is she gets another prescription. (Just watched an interesting documentary called The Ocycontin Express) Tell her BF. Don't wait until a next time.

I know this is probably out of your comfort zone but you should probably just tell her "good bye and good riddance axx hole!!" and then post a thread about it.

pahunkboy -> RE: I need some advice (7/20/2013 11:17:37 AM)
This is really starting to piss me off. She just called again. I hung up on her and took the phone off the hook.

pahunkboy -> RE: I need some advice (7/20/2013 11:21:19 AM)
She just came to the door and said she wont pester me anymore about that. "so you dont have to hang up on me" she said.

Next time, either threaten her with harassment or tell her bf. And if I were her bf and realized that you knew she had a drug addiction and didn't tell me, I'd be pissed off at you.

pahunkboy -> RE: I need some advice (7/20/2013 2:46:14 PM)
I think we have it worked out for now. I gave her my DR info. Im pretty sure he would help her. I dont want to upset her bf because he might have tried to rape 2 people.

ShaharThorne -> RE: I need some advice (7/20/2013 3:01:08 PM)
Personally I would of call the cops for harassment (just state that you noticed some pills missing after she left). I had to deal with one of our plumber's employee stealing my Vicodin back in August. Did not recover them but that employee was fired.

GingerLala -> RE: I need some advice (7/20/2013 3:25:45 PM)
DarkSteven's got it right on the head. Whether or not she thinks she's telling the truth when she says she won't pester you anymore, eventually she'll get desperate again and it'll start all over. Tell the boyfriend. He has a right to know that there's a problem. And while you're at it, you might even have a chat with your neighbor, in case this woman goes to her again and tries to start shit. You don't have to tell her you've partied, just say that this woman is an addict after your meds and to not give her any info about you.
