Opioids...

You absolutely can. I used to work with a guy who was on them for pain after botched surgeries. He'd get really depressed and mean, but finally, his prescription ran out and he couldn't get it taken care of for several weeks. Took it as message/sign/whatever from God and just let his body detox. Said it hurt like hell and sucked like nothing before or after but he's off and done. As far as I know, he hasn't been back on them since. That was a couple of years ago. He's a different person than he was when i met him. Better, more in control, happy.

Stay the course. Simply asking here, shows you want to kick it.
