@michaelho02 Im very happy that I am over 5 months clean. Took a very long road and a lot of will power. My withdraw lasted honest a 1 1/2 month until I began to have little if no symptoms. Very bad withdraw was about 2-3 weeks. But there are many little tricks to help the symptoms of withdraw. Hope this helped
You are very brave. I was addicted also, and am starting my 4th week on Suboxone. I took pain pills, benzo's, sleep meds, anti-depressants, anything I could get. But I have legitimate spinal injury issues and chronic pain. I am 43 and started to worry about my liver. I was also starting to take up to 150mg of morphine a day and the pain was getting worse. The Suboxone is amazing, how it works. So far, I'm doing really well, and I wanted to thank you for making this video. ~Molly

I was addicted to buprenorphine, it's the supidest drug ever, after a month of using it everyday it doesn't even work. I did about 8mg of buprenorphine a day IV.
once an addict always an addict is true, like it or not. 12step has nothing to do with religion read the big book. and suboxone+aa/na is the only success full way
if anyone neeeds so help on gettin off shit like this u can hit me up i was hooked on oxycotton for 7 years shootin up i threw my life away i didnt care about notjin i got locked up everything but i cleaned myself up without help, if anyone needs some help u can message me just out to help ppl get cleaned up now,
blv--i agree/ a lot of what u say, BUT--SOME ppl can do the subox short term then get off (i did...but then again, i relapsed) while others flat out canNOT kick everything. some just need to be able to use subox long term. the good thing about it is that it's not like methadone--we don't build tolerance to it the same way we do methadone and other opiates. we get the same effect (w/no high, most of us) indefinitely.
also...'once an addict always...' i disagree STRONGLY. (cont. next post)
sorry, that saying (above) is just 12stepperspeak, IMHO. for one, it takes a very catholic approach, alleviates a good deal of pers. responsibility, w/'just a bump in the road' attitude towards EITHER a 1-time slip-up OR a 6 month jaunt, & we just have 2 admit we have 0 power over our addiction (CONFESS, in the catholic model) & we're back on track. also...i believe we have the power to BEAT it, & TRULY want to/be willing to pay the price, but we can. sorry, if i'm not addicted, not an 'addict.'
I am struggling with this my self I can't find a way out I depend on opiates to help with my back pain but its slowly ruining my life I'm having relationship problems and I'm ruining my relationship. I can't find a way out
We've both got very similar stories. I just got onto Suboxone myself... on January 22, 2010. I know how terrible this opiate shit can be man. It's terrible but it's good that we've came to terms with this and are trying to beat it.
so are you still on Suboxone now ? or you are drug free now ? and how long does it takes you using suboxone for withdraw ?
