Have had and opiod addiction to pain pills/street opiods for five years the withdrawl is the most horrble sickness i ever gone through, i couldn't handle it so i got on methadone treatment ill probably be on it for a very long time. Opiods don't just make you withdrawl, they effect you mentally, while your an addict. after a while your not doing it to get high anymore, its just enough to get you well.

I'm sorry. Do you mean 'opiates'?

*giggles*

oh, I'm sorry. This is a serious matter.

Yes, it is. Making fun of someone's spelling (and in fact "opioid" is a word, the poster merely missed an i ), when they are publicly sharing a serious and perhaps shameful personal problem is pretty cold in my opinion.

May I suggest that if one has nothing good to say, refrain from saying anything? There are plenty of threads for wit and humor here.

I, too, am a chronic pain patient, and I assure you that it isn't helpful to be laughed at.

1. If they really wanted help, they wouldn't be posting on a message board about a television show.

2. If they didn't want a reaction then they shouldn't have posted on a 'public' message board in the first place.

3. The OP is making a statement. It is our choice whether or not to react to it and how to react to it. And last I looked, she was reacting to my reaction, which was not meant in humor. The way the OP was misspelling things, I was truly wondering if they meant 'opiates'.

I think that sums it up nicely.

Lighten up!
