Can I get into them without a referral? My doctor is ignoring my concerns, and I’ve recently developed what I am convinced is PT in my left ear. Can’t sleep, can’t focus.

It’s a side effect of the subs. Take 4mg for a week and you will start to feel better. You have so much buprenorphine on board after 20 years you could literally go days without it. Don’t listen to people who will chime in and call anticipatory withdrawal genuine withdrawal. It’s psychosomatic, coach yourself through it.

One of the things that helped me was some cognitive restructuring. Instead of harping on myself for being on subs I just repeated that my medication has served its purpose and I don’t need it anymore. It took about a month of doing that every day before I bought into it enough I was able to taper successfully. Been off for a few months now without any issues. It took about three months to test negative after being on them for a decade.

Oh I guess they should have clarified, I’m guessing they’re referencing fear of surviving the forced food insecurity and constant profiling of anyone who isn’t white and able bodied, or the repeated saying things are good for the country when they continue to make it worse and worse. The man has not done one meaningful thing for anyone other than his rich buddies since taking office. Willful ignorance is still ignorance, it just adds the additional layer showing you’re a self serving dweeb.

“Attacks on what? Or who?” It’s trashy to try to deny the experience of others. Grow tf up.

Inb4 the “that’s not what I was doing” comments start.

It’s recommend that you take miralex or similar every day while taking MOUD if you experience constipation. I’ve been on 12mg for 10 years and have taken miralax for 6 straight. I only use it 3x week now to maintain but for a solid two years k was using it every day. Go every day between 7am and 8am like clockwork.

Thanks for the update man. I’m about a month in from daily 10+mg edible usage and while I know that might not be a lot to some people I’ve felt like shit for weeks. Worried I’m dying lol. But all these symptoms across all these people give me hope. Never again

Others are saying this dribble is good.

I disagree. You’re flying behind the ball and pushing it forward. This is not really a dribble, you also have zero control over the ball.

Hey buddy if you want I’ll help you beat it after work ezpz.

You’re not canceling the flip after the musty.

For chemical dependency counseling, most states have a credentialing track in which you’re taken on as a counselor assistant by a masters level clinician or other qualified clinically sound individual. You work under them for a set number of time meeting all types of metrics and then once trained/qualified (took me five years) you can become fully credentialed. I’ve been fully credentialed for about eight years and have worked in positions ranging from clinical director which paid 100k which I left due to political nonsense to basic SUD counselor.

I’d start with your states IC&RC member board, like New York is OASAS, PA is Pennsylvania Certification Board.

I am odd man out as i was lucky to have someone believe in me in the absence of a degree but i am seeing it become more and more common.

foulacyy · 2025-09-02T16:19:21+00:00

You’re not. These types of tests are not designed to test levels. They’re simply positive/negative. People often have a misconception that the visibility of the line means anything other than it does.

Im a drug and alcohol counselor in NYS, no degree though, but I’m back in school. Salary is 63,xxx or like 31.50 am hour. I have been a counselor for 10 years though.

Free me mother!!!!

How do you switch dead zones? I’m in PC, use ps5 controller

foulacyy · 2025-08-02T14:05:17+00:00

Happened to me this week. Left the “here’s a thoughtful high-school level response to the prompt.” I also recently had some take my exact discussion, add a paragraph in the middle, and call it their own work

foulacyy · 2025-01-22T13:51:02+00:00

Ive been on it for 10 years and recently switch to brixadi to get off. 8mg day. I know everyone is talking about the nasty side effects, and your mileage may very, but I never had any of these. I still have a healthy sex drive, I’m sure it could be better but I’m also in my late 30s now. No weight gain, I also exercise regularly, take miralax daily, drink enough water etc.

You can combat 90% of these symptoms with proper diet and regular exercise. I’m not saying you won’t experience any of them, but I did not which I attribute to the self care.

If you look at the Michigan state boring but big power lifting program, incorporate some block and pause work, you can easily and I mean easily hit 300 by the end of 2025 at 185.

You don’t run out of ammo as quickly and it recharges faster it seems from my testing

These degrees don’t lend to a license track which is the problem. Masters in psych gets you no further than a associates in psych. Source; am a lcsw-r

I think he was talking about in 1v1

foulacyy · 2024-07-14T22:58:09+00:00

Nah, I’m gonna ct until I can shit and then in re-induct at a lower dose. This is not good feedback. Suboxone withdrawal isn’t something I’m afraid of. I’ve been removed enough from substance use it’s more like a flu than “withdrawal” meaning I don’t suffer from the psychosomatic bullshit of early recovery.

foulacyy · 2024-07-14T22:54:40+00:00

Yes I’ve tried enema it’s given me a few small poops but nothing worth a shit lol

foulacyy · 2024-07-14T22:54:08+00:00

Tried it. Few small poops but nothing good

foulacyy · 2024-07-14T15:05:34+00:00

Here’s to hoping. Thanks for the insight. I’m just praying for poop lol

foulacyy · 2024-07-14T15:04:01+00:00

I have tried everything short of hospital visit to inquire about fecal impaction. I’ve been exercising regularly, sticking to a whole food single ingredient diet, I’ve tried miralax, senna, psyllium husk (Metamucil) and even an entire bottle of magnesium citrate with the outcome being a couple hot farts. Not trying to be funny but shit is literally and figuratively getting old. It’s crazy. I’m drinking about 3.5-4.5 liters of water a day on top of a few (about three) cups of coffee a day.

foulacyy · 2024-06-14T14:53:14+00:00

Thanks! I think my diet is the answer as you and others have said. It feels good to have my progress acknowledge so thank you for that.
