My confusion prolly also comes from all the stuff i read, not knowing what is fact and what is false. Im in my 40's, I have grown kids, and i remember a time when pills werent part of my life and its hard to imagine that that time did exist. It is also nice that you take all this time to share your story and experiences and try helping others. i wish you all the best :) Im extremely happy to hear that you are doing well, i can only imagine the challenge! you are also prolly right about me not knowing all the facts, i guess i had it wrong, i certainly did not mean to imply that you were being untruthful, i was just confused.

Suboxone is a partial opiate which blocks the receptor sites for opiates. you HAVE to be in mild to moderate withdrawal before you can take suboxone, because if you are not in a mild or moderate withdrawal and take suboxone, you will go into precipitated withdrawal almost immediately and is extremely painful. Precipitated withdrawal is when you are addicted and doing ok and then you take a suboxone it will send you into almost immediate withdrawal because it has blocked to receptor sites of the opiates. I was off opiates for one week when I got my prescription. I have a great doctor and he is one of if not the best psycho-pharmacologists in California. Many doctors use the suboxone program as a money making venture, which is lucrative, but he is in the business of helping people. Also suboxone doesn't get you high. You don't get high from it like a regular opiate. You said "im not so much afraid of the withdrawal as im afraid that i wont ever feel normal again!" this is one reason why opiate addict keep relapsing, they just want to be happy again, normal. but the PAWS can last months, even years, but if you eat well, drink lots of water and exercise it will get your endorphins producing again and you will be much better before you know it. Suboxone was a way for me to get away from the depression of opiates and withdrawal until I could get off the suboxone and not feel the depression of a regular opiate. When I stopped suboxone it was painful, but I didn't have a craving at all for an opiate at all. It was MY miracle drug. This day, I am pain free, happy and my brain is back to normal, whatever normal is. :) Larry Sally, I don’t think you understand the mechanism by which suboxone works.

I suppose i dont understand how you would find a doctor that would prescribe you 30 of the pills a month. I have been doing research on how to kill my addiciton; i have googled, i have read tons of testimonies, i have read books; the one book i read was written by a licensed physician that prescribes this medication for those addicted to pain meds; so with reading that book and the other research, the one thing i that has remained consistent is that Suboxone is also an opiate, small dosage of course, but can be habit forming also..because of this, doctors who are authorized and licensed to prescribe this drug only prescribe patients no more then 2 pills a day initially, the patient goes back for their next refill/checkup and the pills administered increase with each visit..doctors will not prescribe a patient who has an opiate addiction 30 Suboxone pills inititally because of the fear that the patient is looking for the next high and out of options...only prescribing the smaller quanatities allows for doctors to monitor the patient carefully. So i find it very interesting that you have a dcotor that would give you 30/month. My addiciton is very bad, and although i could relate to all you were saying, i think i prolly even have it worse. I became addicted due to multiple surgeries, and then when life shits on you real good, the pain meds helped, you begin taking it to heal your emotional well-being rather then the physical pain. I have lost my life to these damn pills, but i dont stop taking them. i have become unsociable, lazy, fat, cant go no where unless i have enough, even a vacation, i go through from being happy to cranky in 3.5 minutes, i spend way to much money on my presciptions, im just a hot mess, i want off, i know i need off, but im not so much afraid of the withdrawal as im afraid that i wont ever feel normal again!

I mean it's not going to completely take away your withdrawal issues, but it really helps. so does exercise. There's also withdrawal ease, over on the side bar that I hear works well, I've not used it but I knowe the guy who formulated that as well. He's a recovering addict too. all of those "ingredients" have a reason for being there and is explained in the post. It will help it make it doable.

Did you use this method yourself at one point or do you know someone that did? I have began withdraw several times and it was rough. I never went through it completely. Will this method make it at least bearable? What I mean is how did you come about the Larrys Recipe? Did you use this method yourself at one point or do you know someone that did?

My story is so much like yours that its unnerving. I was rearended and messed the discs in my neck up. Severe pain on many levels caused from my neck. The taking to many, buying them on the street, spending money I dont have. I just went and got some B complex, potassium, magnesium, among others and I was wondering how you came about this method when you got off with the miracle drug? Please let me know ok thx PS I havent told my dr and dont want him to know that Im going threw this battle. I ran across this site searching for my own way to deal with the withdraw I know is coming.

Go to the gym and feel better? you should try going to the gym without them. You hide them, typical addict behavior. Going up on how many you take, means you have a tolerance. If you really want to know if you're addicted, stop taking them for 5 days, see how you feel, report back here. Good Luck. If you don’t take them you can’t sleep, that means you’re addicted.

I take them at night but if I don't take them I can't sleep . I feel like they help me go to gym & feel better. I don't go out at night much because I wanna go home & take them. I do hide them. Maybe I'm not at full addiction yet? Not sure ? I have gone up on how many I take. I guess I just want to know how and will I know if I'm addicted & is taking them bad for me in other ways ?
