This may be completely unpopular opinion, but as a temporary user of pain killers I am thankful I was prescribed them. I was experiencing chronic and hard to diagnose pain. I was in a very dark and scary place and was constantly wondering how people without access to these medicines continue their will to live. I was having difficulty making it through a work day and as a desk worker I was able to tolerate them during the day.
I am thankful my doctor was so willing to prescribe them for me. Looking back on the experience in hindsight I would have preferred to stay on them longer instead of transitioning to other medicines during physical therapy. There was a lot of suffering during that time.
