    Hydrocodones: Are they Dangerous?
    Look, I do hydros' illegally cause I use them and I don't need them cause I'm in no pain. I want to know if they hurt your body when you use them and you don't need them. I enjoy taking them cause they make you feel "relaxed" and "high". I love the feeling I get when they kick in.:p

    They can permanently damage your kidneys and your liver if not used as prescribed. Since they were not prescribed, you shouldn't take them unless you want to end up on dialysis one day.

    That takes a long time to destroy your liver and kidneys, and I pace myself and usually take about 2 every half a week. And advil damages your kidneys and liver just as bad as hydrocodone does. And drugs are just addicting cause you love the "high" you feel when you are on them. It doesn't take over your body. It's your choice, cause you WANT them.

    But it is illegal. What you are doing is illegal. If you are in the states it is a felony. Whoever you are getting them is committing a felony.

    This is completely incorrect in is a chemical process whereby you become physiologically addicted. Psychological addiction (what you are talking about) occurs also and with some drugs it is the only part of the addiction. With opiate deriveritives they are pretty much the text book physiological addiction.

    You will also develop a tolerance and require higher and higher doses for the same effect. This is when you will start to experience the worse side effects.
