Is this considered cruelty?

She needs to give them back to you. Once she gives them back, she can't take them back again...if she does, she will definitely go to jail, especially if it's the second time they had to tell her.

She needs to give them back. Once she does, she has NO control over them....and she has no control over when you take them, and how many you take.

You got the answer you wanted. It's illegal, you can get her arrested. You don't believe us, so don't complain about it. Don't ask for an answer, and then dismiss the one you get.

If you don't believe me, call your local police office, so they can tell you the EXACT same thing they told me.

It's apparent you aren't going to, because you aren't willing to do anything about it. If you don't want to do anything about it, don't come online and post a thread about how it's not fair.

You are 21 and whining about your mommy taking away your pills, and willing to do NOTHING about it.

Either you sit there in pain, crying about it, or you do something about it and call the cops and report your medication stolen.

If you don't report it, please don't complain on here about it again.

No offense, but this is ridiculous, you are 21, and have been told you can take action, and you just sit there and whine and cry and make up more excuses.

You sure you are 21....

If you were, it seems like you wouldn't even be posting, and you would have your medication back by now.

I don't know what you wanted out of this thread. Did you want us to inform you that it was wrong of her to do that, and tell you how to get your script back? Or did you just want to whine about mommy taking her 21 year old son's pills, and do nothing about it.

I am sorry, but do something or quit whining man.


EDIT:

I just saw your post about how she will give you the bullshit story about how it's her house, and her rules.

Her rules are more powerful then the law? Give me a break.

Call the cops if she gives you any shit.

After that, she is going to tell you to get out, based on what you say. I already told you, she is going to have to evict you, which will take at LEAST 30 days.

She can't just KICK you out. It's illegal, regardless if you are on the lease or not. Call and verify that if you would like as well.

You need to move out if at 21 you can't even get your own medication.

On top of that, at 21 years of age, why the fuck did your mother know what medication you recieved anyways? Why did you tell her? Was it any of her business?

I really am starting to doubt the 21 year old thing...or else you would have taken action by now.

You don't need to tell her she can go to jail. You tell her she IS going to jail, if she doesn't give them back. If she doesn't you call the police and inform them that someone stole your medication, you know who it is, and they are refusing to give it back.

She will be arrested for theft, and for possession, unless they are nice and drop the charges if she gives them back.

 

I completely agree with u4ia. These are YOUR meds, this is YOUR prescription, this is YOUR pain. The only way YOU are going to feel better about it, is if YOU do something, whether you get you meds or not. However, you most likely will. I realize this is making it a moral issue and not just a legal or ethical one, but cmon man we all know this is bullshit.

 

right on.

 

Jesus fucking Christ. I had already said I would ask her tomorrow because Im tired and shes already asleep.

I never said I didnt believe you guys, thats the main reason I said that I was gonna tell her its illegal. Fuck, some of you guys are real assholes

 

Were not assholes, I can only speak for myself but Id be just as pissed as you are. Just trying to help man. Let us know how it goes.

 

And another thing, where do you get the impression that im "whining about my mommy"? Im pissed off about her taking my meds and I got my answer and said that I would let you guys know tommorrow what happens.

So, you can take your post U4ia and shove it up your ass if you dont have anything constructive to say other than "quit whining." I havent been whining at all. All I did was ask your guys opinions and explained my situation.

 

LOL.

Whatever man.

You make so many threads about the dumbest shit, and I actually take this one serious, and you get all pissy because I give you a good answer.

You whine about your meds being taken, and then you basically think our reply won't work.

Why on earth, if you are 21 years of age, would you stand for this?

Why on earth, would you ASK your mother, and not TELL her?

I would wake her fuck ass up and say "look, bitch, my fucking mouth hurts. Either you give me my fucking medication RIGHT the fuck now, or I am calling the cops and reporting my medication stolen, and you can go to jail for theft and possession."

What is the point in this thread. What did you want us to tell you? That we agree, that it's messed up mommy dearest took your meddy meds and she is a big meanie poopie face?

We tell you what to do if you want your meds back, and you get pissed off. Obviously you aren't 21, and you aren't a man, because a 21 year old man would not get all pissy about an answer to their problem.

Forget it man. Good luck on begging your mom for one Hydrocodone a day.


EDIT:

This whole thread is whining. We gave you an answer, and you said "oh well my mom will probably just tell the cops this, and they won't do anything."

That isn't whining? Saying oh well my mommy will just do this and this and then nothing will happen? That is whining.

Whatever man, that is the last time I try to help you. Quit acting 21 too.

Let us know how bad of an ass whooping your mother gives you after "asking her" about putting her in jail.

Heh.

 

heartiest laugh all day.

 

Whatever. Ive had it with this forum. Maybe tommorrow I'll be more level-headed but right now nothing would make me happier than to smash your face in. Dont ever insult me or my situation without knowing what I go through.

Go fuck yourself

 

this whole thread is the biggest LOL of my day.
that and your sig quote.
I do that dance in public like a pro.

 

i just think its a shame that someone gives you honest advice and then makes an appropriate comment of your responses and you get pissed and want to punch his face in, especially over an internet forum.

 

How did I insult you? I simply insulted your reasoning. Stand up and be a man if you want your medications back. If not, don't make a thread about it.

Complaining about how your mother took your meds at 21 years of age shouldn't be in the Opiate sub-forum.

It should be in one of those self-help sections on the website, about dealing with personal family issues.

Thank you, at least SOMEONE understands.

:cheers2::cheers2:

 

I do not believe getting your mom arrested is really the best plan. You have stated that you are 21 living with your mother. I am guessing she has put a roof over your head and fed you for a fair rent price or even possibly no rent. If I were you I would not throw the threat of police and arrest in her face, I would just try and rationalize with her. If she does not budge tuff out the wisdom tooth pain and look for a new place to stay. There is no need to destroy family relationships over something as simple as pain meds.

I do agree her withholding something such as pain relief is somewhat cruel but she is still your mother and you only have one.

 

Are you reading between the lines? U4ia gave you SHITLOADS of positive advice. As did everyone else. You are in the right. Your mom is in the wrong. This isnt a matter of opinion bro. THIS IS THE LAW. Take control of your shit or everyone, not just your mom, is gonna walk all over you like a freshly laid sidewalk. Grab your nuts, tell yourself youre a man, and do something about your issues.

 

She isn't willing to rationalize. She is refusing to give him HIS medication that was prescribed to him for AFTER procedure pain. She thinks that after the procedure is done, you have no pain, does this sound like a rational person to you?

You told him to find a new place to stay, and I told him to do that as well. I even informed him that she can't legally kick him out in one day, and he will have 30 days to find a new place, AND he will get his meds back. Not only that, but once he has moved out, he will never have to worry about mom taking his medications again.

How would his mother feel if he raided her medicine cabinets and took some of her meds, claiming that she didn't need them? How do you think she would react? The respect should be mutual.

 

You also suggested getting his mom arrested, which in my book is just wrong. There are other ways of dealing with discrepancies in a family matter. If he cares about his family he will do what any real man will do and turn the other cheek and move on. If he feels no remorse onto what he does to his family or others he will go to extremes and get her arrested.

 

So respect goes one way in family? A mother can keep her ADULT son's medications away from him (that legally are his, and he is old enough to take them as he pleases) which are for PAIN from a recent procedure he had done, and he is just supposed to let her take them away, because it's his mother?

I am sorry, but as I said, respect goes both ways in my book.

Obviously she feels no remorse by keeping her son in pain and STEALING his medication.

Apparently that is okay though. Well in my "book," it isn't. You don't take ANYONES medication away from them, regardless of the circumstances.

Like I said, would it be okay for him to raid her cabinet and steal her medications and refuse to give them to her? Would it make the situation ANY different? Of course in your book it would, which is wrong.

Respect is mutual, end of story.

 

even though i think your being a little harsh, im going to have to agree with you u4ia. those are your meds and you should have them. i wouldnt take that shit from my mom but i fucking hate that **** so im biased i guess.

 

Was it okay for a mother to take her 15 yr old's EpiPen from him because she was afraid he would abuse it?

No, it's not, and neither is this. Especially at 21 when you have NO legal right to do so.

I am sorry if some of you think it's harsh. I love my mother, but our respect is mutual. I wouldn't touch her meds, and she wouldn't touch mine.

Maybe she will get pulled over and caught with his meds, and justice will be served.

 

^^^^ that would be some bangin karma
