I took responsibitity for my sefish actions and knew it just didn't add up anymore. You dont have to be a mathematician to figure this out. People in the rehab business would rather complicate things to justify their own existence. As for tips on how to recognise the "time to quit" this is highly personal and different apart as snowflakes.Personally, a sense of survival instincts showed at just the right time and I quietly changed my life.

I wish it was so easy for everyone. Any tips on how to recognize that it's time to leave the pills behind and how to do that?

If I could go the rest of my life doing opiates every single day without financial distress or negative impacts in the workplace and at home, I would. But I can't, so I had to get clean. I've known a lot of user over the years -- all different kinds -- and I would have to say that a majority of those I've known have not destroyed their lives with opiates. But they, and myself, have all reached a point where taking them is no longer fun, or worth it, and it's time to stop. There are all kinds of addicts, and not all of them destroy their lives and those around them by using. Plenty of people out there stop because they realize it's time.
