as renee78.... really I'm here because of my doctor.. even though i tell him there's no how, no way I'd ever go back, he says i need this. I've been on suboxone for about 10 months, at first i had a crazy doctor who just let me loose with a huge bottle and let me think i needed 6+ 8 Mg's a day, and now I'm on 2 a day, and I'm fine, no wd's or anything along the way.. I'm not perfect, i have no excuses other than i f'ed up. i was what you call a functioning addict. on the outside at least. I'm glad it's the past, and looking forward to suboxone being the past also. but as you all know it's not that easy. so i continue to suck on these nasty pills....
