I feel so overwhelmed. I'm making bad decisions. I have been self medicating with medication thats not mine. I have also been taking mine. Then I sometimes add t3s. It helps with my paranoia.

Something to consider - look online for a NA phone meeting or internet meeting.
Self-medicating can often lead to bad places.

Be careful with opioids, they're very habit forming. Personally I don't even like to be prescribed them because of how high the potential to be come addicted is for me.

I'm not judging though, we've all got our vices.

For me they are very habit forming. When I get prescribed them I take too many. I have also have stolen from people and taken them for weeks at a time. I'm trying to stop doing that though.

Eep. I know that situation. It can be hard but I think you're capable even if it's a struggle.
