Go see an addiction specialist, if you can.  There are non-profit clinics in your area and it could mean the whole difference between relapse, recovery, and death.  Yes, death.  You can kill yourself self-prescribing and the street dealer that is selling you suboxy can end up killing you.

There are clinics out there (that if I mention them in a post will **** people off, but...) that have daily monitoring and dispensing programs.  For about $100 a week (cheaper than the drug dealer for sure) you get seen by a doctor, a group program, HIV and drug testing, medication (if you and your doctor agree you need it), and constant encouragement.

Yes, like they said above you are digging yourself into a hole. Sub is meant to be used alone and dosed properly.  You cannot just one day take sub and onother not.  Go see your doctor and get an appropriate pain plan, or detox plan.

Please don't take Sub unless it's prescribed by a doctor.  Get with a doctor as soon as you can.   The situation is now a little too complicated for this forum.   Sub is meant to be taken ALONE. Do your research!!

Good luck!

So you are taking suboxone also?  Did you get this from a doctor?
