A good portion of the time an individual will/may morph into addiction, as in my case. The medications do work for the majority of cases, but sometimes... too good. Your mind starts to recognize that these substances are quite efficiant as a coping mechanism and/or self adjustment(s) (social). Therefore, one may start to use opiates for all types of dis-eases. I finally had to go enroll in a methadone clinic as the differences are negligible anymore the way the Pain Treatment centers like to call you in while at work to count pills or urine test their clients. This "morphing" that was spoken of beforhand is so subtle/stealth-like that one generally cannot recognize it at face value. Yet when the progression finally manifests itself in bio/phyco/social dysfunctions one has no choice but to deal as best his/her abilities. It is a classic "CATCH 22".
