 I got addicted very fast. Tessa is in recovery from an addiction to prescription opioids. I was pregnant twice, and I had used prescription opioids both times. I knew that this was something I had to stop for the sake of my children and for myself. I am more fulfilled today than I ever have been, and I know there's more to come. If you or someone you know is struggling, there is hope. Recovery is possible. Visit CDC.gov slash RxAwareness.
