Thank You Larry. I am so glad I found this site. I dont feel so alone anymore. I will have tons of people asking me why I will drop out off school temporarily and why I look tired all of the time. But you are absolutely right, I need to get treatment on these issues. This Suboxone also gives me mood swings which is not cool. Especially for my family. I have so much work to do and im happy there are people out there to help! Thank You again everyone!
What used to seem fun and easy was a busy schedule. When you are on Suboxone or rather any mind altering substances, life and a busy schedule is not really fun anymore, at least not after a little while. Obviously it is in the beginning or we would not have coped with them in the first place. I never tried Suboxone because I wanted to make my recovery as difficult as possible.
As far as the abusive relationship you do need therapy and it should be a priority over everything else. Find an inpatient or an intensive outpatient treatment center for battered women. I am glad that you realize this already. School can wait. Last time I went to treatment I had a warrant on me because I didn't show up to court because I was in the hospital. Any consequences that you may feel are gong to have being in treatment may seem big right now but I promise they will shrink if you put your treatment first. Please take care of yourself and let us know how it is going.

I tried a seroquel to sleep but didn't work like it usually would. Im recently getting out of a 6 yr abusive relationship. The doctor reccommended I need counseling, which I agree. I feel overwhelmed with all that I have on schedule. I love school, I just feel maybe I should focus on bettering myself mentally before educationally. I feel like crap because of all this. I appreciate the responses. Thank you
I would talk to the doc about it. More than likely it will pass on it's own when you get in a routine with school. There are things that aren't habit forming that they can prescribe for you to help at night. Have you tried Benadryl?
I am a LPN and went to school and worked on subs. I take 1/2 a film a day and before bed I take Vistril to help me relax...basically it is a strong anti histamine. You can do it..dont stress out. The more you worry over it the worse your anxiety will be.
