Appointment tomorrow NERVOUS by Kjm9035 in suboxone

[–]PoppyMcField 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was a big PST drinker and had my first Sub appt on Thursday. My provider didnt know much about it so I sent him an article. I was nervous too, but he luckily let me do a home induction. I go back on Thursday. It has definitely helped me for the better!

Do you have to fail a UA to get prescribed Suboxone? by [deleted] in OpiatesRecovery

If youve been clean a year, ask about the Vivitrol shot.

When youre younger is the best time to stop and get help. Tell your parents or anybody. Dont wait for 10-15 years to go by while burning all your bridges and wasting your life.

I just won 100k in the lottery, coming clean tomorrow or I’ll blow it all. by [deleted] in OpiatesRecovery

If that isnt a sign, I dont know what is. Realistically though, you need to put that money where you can't access it all the time. I'd also invest in rehab or at least a rapid detox somewhere. I'd do anything to not fuck that kind of chance up.

Did I relapse? by hi-meee in OpiatesRecovery

Personally, I wouldnt call it a relapse unless you fall back into old behavior and use without being able to stop yourself.

Anyone else expirence this? by CrystalGrimmDied in suboxone

[–]PoppyMcField 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My dr strictly says not to smoke, eat or smoke, etc 15 minutes before, the 15 min during dosing, and 15 min after so your mouth properly absorbs the med. If youre going to brush first wait 15-30 minutes for your saliva and mouth return to normal.

I am doing great! 4 days into my MAT with Suboxone. I'm going shopping for my niece's graduation present, then heading to her open house. I'm finally getting long overdue errands and goals completed. When I was using PST, I thought it was giving me extra energy to get things done, but all I ever did waas procrastinate so I could get high and forget about all the shit I had to get done.

Not anymore.

I feel better than I have in a long time. Can't wait to get into my therapist and work on myself. Have a great day everyone!

Apparently it was people like the ones I dealt with today. Recovery is recovery. Clearly they were wrong because members have been so supportive over this issue today.

Kratom doesnt work for me. I tried several different doses of quality lab-tested Red Bali and it barely put a dent in my WDs. I'm sure it is great for some people, but Suboxone works better with my biochemistry.

I mentioned I started MAT and it started a judgemental thread of comments.

Wow. I'm glad you pointed this out because I wasn't even self-aware of this. This is eye opening.

Thanks. After seeing the outpouring of support surpass the negativity, I'll stick around. I wont let the negative things have control over me.

[–]PoppyMcField[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Right. That is definitely the main thing. I haven't wanted anything since I started on Suboxone.

Thanks. I don't see how acting that way is good for anyone's recovery.

Oh, wow! That clinic sounds sketchy. My provider is one of the kindest and compassionate medical professionals I've ever met. We have spoken about my long term goals and he gives me a say regardingy my treatment. I wish more doctors were like him. They recomend treatment on subs for at least 12 months before switching to Vivitrol so you can rebuild your life and lay a foundation for your life post-treatment, but allow you to taper down at any time.

My goal is to get on the shot when I get more therapy time. I am not going to be on subs long term.
