First entry

I usually just post on my FB, but I know that my friends are probably tired by now of all my doom and gloom. It helps me to vent, as it does most people. But this is probably a better place for that. I'm in a Tramadol fog today. It used to make me sick whenever I took it, but over the past couple weeks I've noticed that it's not doing that. Instead, I am sick as it wears off, and often sick the next day as well. So today, I'm trying something to see if it will help. I took one this morning after my daughter got on the bus, then for the next dose I only took half a pill. I'll take a half pill for the next dose too. Then, when the pain doesn't seem to be coming back bad, I'll switch over to Tylenol. I'm hoping this "easing down" will ease the withdrawal symptoms, since I assume that is what's been happening to me. 
I told Will (my husband) I fear becoming an addict.
