You mentioned taking Symbal 20 for your back pain. If the content of medication is Duloxetine then I am not sure if that was the right medication to take at it is SSNRI and it can be addictive over long period of time.

Regarding ur addiction, it is difficult to say now without consulting in person but symbal should not be continued indefinitely without medical supervision. Better u consult ur physician and move accordingly
