On about April 19th 2002 SOMEONE hacked into the old guestbooks and DELETED them. What they deleted was over 500 DEATH and ADDICTION stories relating directly to OXYCONTIN. They also deleted over 100 stories from people who are legitimate patients and most of them need oxycontin for their SEVERE PAIN. I apologize to anyone who took the time to share their stories to HELP warn others. Those guestbooks were somehow a comfort to all who have been affected by this ABUSE epidemic. Please if you are looking for your story then REPOST it. I'm sad to say but by the amount of email I am receiving these guestbook's will rapidly rebuild their SAD tales BUT people need to be warned as to the power of this drug and the deadly consequences when ABUSED.
Please read the other stories and add yours to our guestbook...

My almost 23 yr old son died July 26,2007. He took his life under the influence of Oxy. We did not even know at the time he was on drugs. Since his death 2 of his friends and an aqaintance of mine have also died due to Oxy. I come back to this site and continue to see death stories. My heart aches for my son. I miss him so much. How fast 2 1/2 yrs go by and instead of getting better I miss him more each day. It did not have to happen. It is such a waste of a beautiful human being. He was handsome, smart, and had everything to live for. So many people taking this do not realize they are not in control of themselves on this drug. My son loved himself and would have never done this sober. He did not believe in suicide. Now I here storys on the news of celebrity children and suicide. I wonder if Oxy was involved. This drug is evil. I would not doubt it.

my moms actually one of those cases to where she really does have severe pain do to a spinal disease she was diagnosed with in 07. But as of 09 ive noticed a complete turn around in her moods and just her functionality all together. Currently she is taking oxycodone, oxycontin and percicets all different milligrams, and she also takes anti-depressants but feels as thought its ok because oh guess what a doctor prescribed them all to her and she supposedly takes them as directed. I just feel that mixing all of those medications is going to result into something terrible. She cant function, she cant sleep, doesnt eat,and acts as though shes on cocaine or heroin. And then i found out today that oxycontin is also known as the "poor mans heroin" she has lost many people do to her drug related activity, and ive expressed my feelings about it to her on many occassions and currently she wants nothing to do with me because she feels as though im over exaggerating. I want to get my mom help but i know she has to be willing to get it, and thats just not happening ( i know this because she told me she wont go) I cant just sit and wait for something to happen to her. I have a child myself and i want him to have his grandmother around for a while and for her to even see her great grand kids just as my grandmother was able to. i dont know what to do for someone who doesnt want help..
