What having an addiction to pills can do to someone


I wrote something years ago. I continue
to share it, because if I can save even one person than I will have accomplished something.

I am fully aware that some of you have children on here and if this offends you, than I apologize. However, I would rather them have the knowledge, instead of become a victim of this substance.

It all starts with an injury, a headache, a kidney stone, a surgery, or just wanting to try something new.  You may be afraid at first to try this unknown drug, because of the things that you’ve heard. You end up trying it anyway, because of the pain your feeling, the attempt of trying to be cool around your friends, or to escape reality. There is something that you do not know; once you shallow that pill, your life will NEVER be the same. The reason it changes your life, is most people enjoy the feeling that you receive off the pills. This will lead to you wanting more of what you just felt.

Once the pills run out you will start to sneeze, your nose will run, your body will shake and you will begin to feel weak and worn down. You start to ask yourself is this feeling from not having the substance that I just had in my body. You will soon know it to be true, because you will spend hours in the bathroom over a toilet.
At that moment you have two choices: you can let your body withdraw from this horrible chemical substance, or you can go get more (most choose the second choice, because the pain from withdrawing is worse than anything you will ever feel).

 If you are strong enough to shake the feeling, kudos to you. You need to know that the effects of not having anything in your system will only last two to three days. I suggest a lot of rest with Pepto and Tylenol.

There is the choice of finding more, but just remember you are letting this chemical have a hold on you. You will begin to start to fake sickness, fake hurting, you will call friends to find some, you will buy them on the streets, and you will even steal from family. Now remember that these things usually cost anywhere from $5-$10 a pill.

You will never feel like you have enough around, and once you start running low the cycle starts over again and again, until it has you homeless, friendless, your children taken from you, your family disowning you, and left alone to find more of this matter that has taken completely over your life. Unless, you stop this NOW!
After you have drained all of your sources, including yourself it may be too late!

If you have never tried pills: DO NOT TRY IT, DO NOT LOOK AT THEM! If someone is pressuring you to take them, walk away. If you are hurting, please try taking something that is not a narcotic, or other forms of pain management. Examples; massage, hot bath, Reiki, meditation, exercise, drink more water, or try talking with a professional.

There is help for anyone that is willing to break the cycle.  I have included a link to the National Opiate Abuse Hotline; seek the professional help you know you deserve!

Showing your Husband Respect

Image
If you ask your Husband what he wants the most from you, chances are he will say, "Respect"! In Ephesians 5:33 apostle Paul encourages Husbands to love their wives and wives to respect their husbands. Paul knew that husbands need to be reminded that their wife should love and respect them. Could we as wives slip out of respecting our husbands and begin nagging and focusing on their weaknesses? Respect is what a husband wants; it's what a marriage needs. Wives who show their husband respect is allowing her Husband to become all that he ought to be. To understand how a wife is supposed to treat her husband, read Ephesians 5:33. "Let the wife see that she respects and reverences her husband [that she notices him, regards him, honors him, prefers him, venerates and esteems him; and that she defers him, praises him. loves and admires him exceedingly]." Look again at the verse, consider each phrase and relate it to how you treat your Husban...

Fulfilling Sexual Intimacy in Marriage

Image
To have a great marriage, you must remain sexually active with your Spouse! Do you know that many marital problems can be related to not having your needs met sexually? Most couples face the frustration of having one spouse with a consistently stronger sex drive than the other . The Bible tells us how we can manage our sex lives in 1 Corinthians 7:3-5 The husband should give to his wife her conjugal rights, and likewise the wife to her husband. For the wife does not have authority over her own body, but the husband does. Likewise, the husband does not have authority over his own body, but the wife does. Do not deprive one another, except perhaps by agreement for a limited time, that you may devote yourselves to prayer; but then come together again, so that Satan may not tempt you because of your lack of self-control. The verse states that couples should make love whenever the other Spouse wants to have sex. That means even if you are not in the mood at the ...
