I've been taking pain medication for 3-4weeks. Whilst I've been using it for my pain, I have been messsing with it a bit and self medicating. It gives me a bit of a buzz (doesn't last long) and then I crash. I have self medicated before with prescription meds.
Since using this it's become more tempting to go back to old ways and take more (self medicate more). I quite enjoy the escape from it - passing out or whatever.
I'm not sure if I have an actual problem though....
