I'm scared, I'm confused Found out last Sunday my husband is addicted to vicodin. He's been HIDING his supply. Tells me he's not bad but I think different. He's been using on and off for years to treat cronic back pain. For the past 6 months he's had endless supply from new doctor. He's taking 7.5's, gets at least 60 w/refill to 90 w/refill to last a month. Don't think he's able to make it to his next monthly appointment without running out. Thinks he can break this with no outside help. Knows he can't go cold turkey, he's already tried, withdrawls are too bad. He's trying one a day under my control but also needs to drink wine at night and is taking flexeril (1/2) for sleep. We've been together for almost 2 years, lived together for over a year, but only been married for 2 months. His first wife was an addict so I never saw myself coming to this. Am I fighting a losing battle? I need HELP!!!!
