suboxone

Don't have a question to pose, but this forum is to be part of my diversion program. To me suboxone took away my craving for oxycontin but is by far the best pain killer too, that I have taken. I have found out through many sources oxycontin is positively the worst thing you can take for your body. It will destroy everything and make you worse. Please believe me cus I've gone through absolute hell. In some communities they try to keep suboxone a secret so rehab centers can make their big bucks, but there are special licensed doctors that can prescribe suboxone at clinics. so the cost is very cheap if you look for it on your own. just find a doctor who is licensed to begin with. I'm the one that has to try everything and you can take all the oxycontin in the world and it's like you've taken nothing if you're on the sub.  Been on the suboxone since April, sure got a lot more money. Feel better also. I think coming off suboxone will be a piece of cake compared to that other evil. I'd been w/d from oxycontin for 14 days, felt extremely sick, as many of you know personally yourself that hell, took a half of an 8 miligram tablet of suboxone and 10 years of heavy opiate use was down the drain. unreal instant results. find it and it can absolutely change your life in all positive ways. good luck to you all our there.
will be here as part of my diversion program. my computer needs to be fixed, am borrowing this one for today, but hope to be back online in a few days.

I have to agree 100% with mr.lucky66.   I took subs long term, over a year now, and have never suffered the h**l of this kind of withdrawal.  even going c/t off of oxys and vics was truly nothing compared to what the wd has been for me coming off the subs.  I was like you though when i was taking it.  I talked it up to all my addict friends about how it saved my life (and in retrospect it might have as there was no possibilty of OD-ing on it).  but I am on day 14 of sub wd and my opinion has completely changed about it.  i would never have taken it had I known.  But this is just my experience and my opinion.  There is no way to outrun the wd.  the subs prevent the oxy wd but you will eventually face the wd from the subs.  i wish you all the best, i truly do and mean that.  I hope you have a better experience than me and at least you are discussing it.  I did not knwo much about it except what the doc told me, which I found out to be miserably untrue.    Good luck

the Sub aint cheap around here.  neither are the doctors.  and yeah, i am wondering what the others are about the WD from it after being on it for a long time.  it is such a strong drug.  i cannot imagine the WDs being any easier than any other opiate.  isn't it just Sub-stituting (sorry ,couldn't help the pun!) one drug for another!

I glad sub is working for your pain. I think you will find that coming off oxy is a walk in the park compared to long term sub. Many many people here have had a very hard time getting off sub. all the best

Hi Topcat,   I sincerely wish you the very best in your recovery.   Please let everyone know what you think of Sub after you attempt to come off of it.   Many on here would like to see someone who can let it go without major W/D's.  All the best.
