Addiction and it’s Treatment
I met up with my high school friends last month for a reunion we are planning for the whole batch. Our school will be celebrating it’s 75 years so we are trying to locate every classmate we had before so that we can reminisce and meet again for the first time after we graduate. We ate dinner in a restaurant and chatted with old friends and batch mates. There were laughters and giggles all over trying to remember the old times. I notice someone from another section who’s taking his pills almost every hour I saw him. When everybody was gone out dancing on the floor, we were left in the table and I couldn’t help but ask what is he taking. He said they were painkillers, he had a motorcycle accident a few months ago and he needed those to keep him in the game. His job requires physical endurance so more or less, every time he feels the pain, he takes them.
I feel that it is too much but I can’t meddle with his life, especially we are not that close. But I was a little concerned about it so I search about Vicodin Addiction. It is treatable to most patients and doctors think that there is still hope for that. They can have a Detox program or be prescribed by Suboxone, either way is helpful. I felt responsible already because I know the story and I want to help him get help but how? He might think that I am meddling with his life and I don’t have business with him. I need to speak to one of his closest friend and help him realize that it can still be treated.
