so my boyfriend has to take loratabs for his back.well the other nite we got home from a funeral and he did some loratabs and some zanexes to ease the pain.

i think its stupid to take pills/relaxers just because you are sad and hurting and it upsets me alot.

im thinking about leaving him!

what should i do?

based on his pain? If your in this position weigh your options, the postives vs the negatives. We will find that no one is perfect, however we compromise on certain characteristics, others we dont.

Talk it out.

i can understand he does the laratabs cuz of the back pain

but he did a total of like 4 pills ( a mix of zanex and loratab over and 8 hour period might) might have been one or 2 more then 4

How many people have you lost in your life? My mom was just taken to the hospital for chest pains. (She has had 7 stints in her corotid artery.) If I had them I just might take them too... When my Dad died I would have done it... Same with my Grandmother... Sorrow and grief do things to people they wouldnt normally do. Give him all the support you can. He obviously needs it.

Kai67 i however understand her dilema, pills block us from facing the truth, somtimes we must face what hurts us so much to make us better, this is how be become addited to such drugs, we are able to live another life with the "drugs" in play.

Right. But sometimes you just need something to stop the pain till you can work it out. till your brain can catch. I won't condone the continuous use but even doctors will prescribe for a week or two so you can "handle it" and "adjust".

The complexity of emotions is why i can never believe evolution had created us.

We call this "soul-searching". After all the denial of how you really feel, you ask how do i feel. We spend so much time trying to not let it bother us and hide it away. Somday ill be able to not reject how i really feel about a situation, i think this makes the best person

See? So, the use of drugs to ease the pain is not all so bad. As long as it is a temporary thing. if it becomes a long term problem than YES. Have a talk.

Bee. Every week you have a new problem with your guy. Every week you run to your computer to ask us if you should leave him. This crap is getting old like the boy who cried wolf. Freaking leave him already! Duh! Hello? Cmon you can't be this intellegent!

Agreed.

Psychotropics and opiodes at high levels? That's a cocktail I wouldn't want to play around with.

Just leave already...this isnt the first time you have asked if you should stay or go.....Pick yourself up and walk out of the relationship.
