Are you taking pain pills regularly?

Please vote in the poll. Just wanted to get an idea of how many guys use some type of pain pill on a regular basis.

Pain pills are for pussies.

Some of us actually need them to do daily activities and live a somewhat normal life!!

I have taken Selaxon (muscle relaxer) when I have strains, sprains and it helps me sleep or hydrocordon occasionaly if I'm really in pain.

I used to abuse them all the time, not its only when I need them.. Perscribed Flexeril and them muscle relaxers fuck my whole shit up.

I have the same problem, I have multiple buldging disks and I'm only 25 years pld which means Ihave been recently dropped from my parents insurance I was on a script of 4 10mg/650mg. percocet(oxycodone) a day and now I'm stuck without insurance at the moment and any insurance company I sign with will not cover any pre-existing conditions for one year which means no surgery or prescription drug coverage for a year. I know the policy on requesting sources from this site,but I was hoping someone could lead me in some direction for help, anything anyone could tell me would be greatly appreciated, I have been through physical therapy,chiropractor, massage therapy, anti-inflammatories, and months off from the gym. I live my life in pain and any advice would help

Pain pills can be dangerous if abused, but they have tremendous potential for assisting a BBer to make the most of recovery time.

I don't think that anyone would argue that opiates (WITHOUT THE DAMN tylenol, apap, or Acetaminophen bound into the pill) can do wonders in reaching psyiological goals, including making workout recovery more productive.

The worst thing about pain pills is the supplemental pain relievers they add to them that wreck your liver when you exceed the recommended dosage. This is deadly, and the FDA should be stepping in here to review policy.

Oxycontin my be a terrible drug for addicts and wrecks many lives, but it's safer on the body than the Percocets, Vicodin, Lortabs, etc. that can do more permanent harm.

None of these drugs should be taken with alcohol for several reasons, but the safest drug overall is oxycontin on the body.

There will always be those who are too ignorant or scared to safely employ opiates as an important part of an effective cycle, and you will never convince those people otherwise. They will always have a horror story ready to share about how pain pills wrecked someone's life they knew, and thus, they can never be safely used without losing everything (unless their Dr. gave them their own, then they are perfectly safe and blessed by the Pope Himself).

Certainly dont be one of the unfortunate individuals who progressively abuse the drugs and end up losing the gains they worked so hard to accomplish.

But Many, MANY BBs use pain pills safely, intelligently, and effectively to help them reach their goals and to assist them in reaching those goals more effectively.
