> BeccaBecca,
I'm not on the same drug you are, but that crying thing I do too. I'm going through a withrawal and I had to give the bottle to my roomate to help me. Right now I want to burst into her room and take it back. Is there a way to tell your boss what is happening to you, and that there is an end in it? I know sometimes that isn't the best thing to do, but sometimes if it seems inevetible you are going to lost your job it helps bring things around. Your true friends will forgive you for any hard feelings this causes. Don't give up, you will get through this and then it will be worth it.Renegade
