I was scared shitless for the first two months taken these things, but I gave my mother my pain pills and she has been handing the right does to me everyday! It's sad I'm 37 years old and need my mommy to hand out my pain pills! BUT I DON'T ever want to lose everything or my kids! I still have a lot now and my kids it's been one of the hardest things in my life to kick! Tell your brother if he really wants to stay off it it will get easier day by day! Good luck brother!
