feeling guilty

i'm staying at my aunts for a bit, and when she was gone today i couldn't resist the erge to search her bathroom for any good pills. i found some vicoden, didn't take enough for her to notice. just snorted them on her counter and feeling kind of bad about it. was a mistake in two ways. One: vics never did anything really for me, too weak, but they made me want something more, which i can't get. and Two: the most important one, she needs these pills, i don't. i'm also afraid she'll find out and get pissed. i don't know. just had to get it off my chest i guess. no one has to write anything.
sucks, now i'm craving wicked bad too.

i would be honest try to explain the extent of your problem that you cant not take them if you know there around and ask if she can get a briefcase or something and lock them up i had to do this. I was at a friends house once and there were two perscriptions on the counter and i had to see what they were i couldn't stop myself fortuantly for me they were antibiotics for the dog not a huge temptation

Yep, I've been guilty of that too. Took it from my Aunt as well. I actually rationalized it in some sick way.

We are addicts. We are impulsive, we like to FEEL GOOD ALL THE TIME. At least I did.

If she does find out, she does have a right to be pissed. She might even be alarmed for you. Maybe it would scare you enough to get some help. Or maybe not. Sometimes our pain levels have to drag us WAY DOWN before we decide to do something about it. If we're lucky to live through it.

There is help. I'm thankful to this community so we are allowed to vent and get things off our chest. Maybe even help another fellow in need.

You are loved, there are people that love you. There is hope out there.

God bless you.

You know, you could have not felt guilty at all, but it seems you're a better person than that. The fact that you felt bad enough about it to come here and write about it shows you know what you did was wrong and truly are sorry.

I wouldn't worry about her pills, older people tend to take them now and then, not daily, so she will have a refill before she runs out. You know now not to do it again.

None of us look down at you for this, so no worries. What you did was wrong, but I've done the same with my stepdad's vicoden as well, so I can understand. I feel bad about it too.

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
