Are you on Suboxone or Methadone? It really doesn't matter which one your on . Some of our members are on Suboxone and some of them are on Methadone. I myself am on suboxone and have been for going on 4 years now. Before that I had been on Methadone for 4 years. I can't say enough about these to medications. And if you stick around long enough to get to know me, you will find that out soon enough. And why not? They saved my life.

Welcome Jenny,

I'm Barbara, one of your moderators. Sorry to take as long as I have to answer...I've had one of those days and waited untill I felt I could be of use. So glad you joined us and in hopes you will feel free and safe to be yourself here and you'll not be judged or classified. I love this place and feel I needed to be stabilized when I first got here. I was just out there, floating around with my medications. My doctor let me decrease my medicine at my own pace; which I tapered as fast as I could, but missed the window of opportunity when I couldn't finish my taper when I got to 1 milligram a day. I quickly went back up to 2 milligrams and then to 4 milligrams. Here is where I've been for quite a while. I've had on my mind to taper again, hopeing my brain wouldn't stress out again. In a way I don't see it happening as I've been ill at ease since I thought of the taper. Chemistry of the brain is like a fine tuned computer. I have got to find the right antidote for the damage I've done. I know I can heal cause there's days when everything is wonderful, but one paniced momment and I'm back in the mire.

Thank you for reading my bit of problems and success. Please feel wecome to share.

Your in the struggle,
Barbara
