opiates here, my grandmother got me hooked when she would give me lortab for minor headaches, lol...

I hurt my back in '06 and was on lortabs from 09 to about three months ago.

While i no longer have the withdrawls from the first few weeks of getting off of them, i do long for them and will take them if i ever get a chance.

my tolerance was way to high for them however. When you can take 5 lortab 10 pills at once 3 to 4 times a day and function completely normally it is time to stop.

I did not stop however because i felt i had an addiction omg i need to stop taking them, i stopped because it was no longer beneficial (read: taking so many to get that feeling again), it just wasnt worth it. not to mention the amount of tylenol on those things will kick your liver in the arse, good thing i am not a drinker.

so to fill the void i now work out for 2 hours a day at the gym with a friend of mine instead of sitting in front of the computer playing whatever MMO is out there. i play p99 at most 3 hours on sat while i am grouped with a ton of friends, or randomly for 1 hour max. with two jobs, 4 kids, and a wife i really dont have time.

either way, using whatever substance or doing whatever activity, is really all just a base instinct to get your brain to fire off that chemical that makes you happy. So what works for you as long as it doesnt harm anyone around you is what i prescribe to.

Yeah I find a similar effect from plucking strands of grass and weaving them into an elven crown.
