Hi Laura,

I'm so sorry things are so bad for you. Though I now use amphetamines, Prozac, and Klonopin to handle my depression and anxiety, I have been prescribed opioids psychiatrically. They work beautifully, and there are methods of preventing tolerance which are quite handy, but I unfortunately had to quit using them because, oddly enough, they made my fibromyalgia pain worse!

If you'd like, you can e-mail me at amesansvie@yahoo.com and I'll provide you with a wealth of information you can print and bring with you to your appointment in February. You're much more likely to convince the doctor that opioids are for you if you have a mountain of evidence to present -- that's how I was first prescribed a narcotic for depression.

Hope to hear from you!

Michael
