Hi I am Stacy my husband is addicted to hydrocodone. We are always broke he is unemployed we cant pay our bills Well it's the same old story with every drug addict. But what I don't understand is why I stay. I've had plenty of opportunities but I never leave.If I do leave I always come right back.He doesn't even ask me to come back he actually acts like it doesn't mean anything to him either way. Crying or Very sad

Hi Stacy
Well, one thing is for sure, that is one easy drug to get hooked on. Here in Fla, they just recently are starting to watch for "Doctor Shopping" and Emergency Room also. Now, ER's can only write by law #15 of any narcotic drug. It has to stop somewhere. Now if we could just get the darn things off the street that are killing people. Half the time you never know what you've been givin.

Welcome to the group and looking forward to reading your posts and replies.

Carrie
