Question:
What do I do if I become dependent on my pain medication?
Answer:
If you find yourself increasingly dependent on your prescribed pain medication, what should you do? Addiction is a serious obstacle for many people here in Utah. Thankfully, there’s help and hope for anyone who’s concerned they might be facing opioid dependence.
First, you need to seek medical help from a professional. They can make reasonable adjustments to your prescriptions to help you safely proceed with your treatment. Choosing to end your prescription without the help of a medical provider can be dangerous. Make sure to get help from a doctor or an addiction specialist.
Second, contact a local addiction support group for more information. Establishing a support system is absolutely crucial for your recovery. Know that you’re not alone in this and that there’s real help to be found working with others that have been through the same thing.
I’ve helped clients who have worked through their addiction with addiction specialists to take their lives back from the grip of pain medication dependency. It can be a challenging road but it’s absolutely possible to change your relationship with chronic pain and chronic pain medication.
If you or someone you know has developed an addiction to pain medication, reach out for help. If your chronic pain is because of a personal injury, give me a call. I’d love to talk with you about your situation and help you in any way I can.

With regards to case value, these three rules can serve as guides. First, the value of a case usually follows the severity of your injuries. The worse a person is hurt, the bigger the case. Second, how much are the medical bills? This one is similar to the last one – usually, the higher the medical bills, the more valuable the case. Third, what kind of impact did the crash have on your life? The more the injuries from a crash affect your life, the more the case is worth, oftentimes. All these factors go into helping evaluate the value of a case. If you’ve been hurt in a bicycle crash, call us. We would love to talk with you about your case."
