My husband died about a month ago from an accidental prescription drug overdose. He was on the pain medication for chronic pain but he became addicted and got sucked in. He paid the ultimate price with his life. I'm so sad about it and also angry at him for doing this to us. I'm also angry with myself for not "seeing" what he was doing. I'm a very smart person and I was completely blind-sided. To make it worse, I keep replaying things in my head about when he was doing this stuff and wondering how many times he lied to me about it. He was telling me that the effects were from the prescription drug but he hid that he was abusing them and then he pointed the finger at me--making me feel like I was overbearing or paranoid. I'm very sad, hurt and confused.
