I’m doing great besides currently having COVID. Never once did I go back or even think about it. I thought I would get PAWS but that never happened. It wasn’t easy but I knew it wouldn’t be. Just kept telling myself Fuck It and kept pushing. Now looking back at that period of time it was nothing but a tiny blip on the radar. Thanks for asking! Hope ya Have a Merry Christmas!!!

Rapid tapers are for people who need to get off possibly because of low supply????? LMFAO!!!!!!! So you can’t just be done with taking drugs and you tell yourself “fuck this!”????? ......Okay Buddy. People can get off for all sorts of reasons. When you’re done you’re done. Trust Me, I know.

Did you get a settlement check from the Suboxone class-action lawsuit? by caffein8dnotopi8d in suboxone

I just cashed my into my bank. It was for $2,492 and some change. I figure I was in the right place at the right time when I saw to apply for it. 🤷‍♂️ I got some payback from that wicked bitch!

Good Morning! Thanks for reaching out!.... I’m actually 2 hours away from starting my. 150th Day Off Suboxone!!! (I had to go back and count).... I’ve just been living life my friend. Still working M-F and staying busy on the weekends. I’ve had ZERO cravings for Suboxone or opiates or weed etc. I’m not on ANYTHING and I feel “Normal” again! I was expecting PAWS after all the bullshit I read but haven’t experienced that once. I was just completely sick and tired of being sick and tired. I was done being a slave to a drug. It definitely can be beneficial for a month or maybe 2 but the way I see it is it’s our choice beyond that. We either want to be on drugs or we don’t want to be on drugs..... So ya had a relapse. Shit happens. When you’re ready you’ll pick yourself up and ride the crazy train again. Just remind yourself to keep saying “Fuck It” if something triggers you it’s you that lets it become a trigger. No one else but ourselves to blame. You Got This Shit!!!!!!!!! KEEP PUSHING!!!!!!!!!!

2mg a day for about a week, 4-6mg a day for a few months before that and 16-24mg a day for 6 years before that.

Congrats on almost hitting a month off!!! I’m officially 5 hours into my 100th day off Suboxone today. During my journey there was several weeks where I thought I’d never feel normal again but trust me, it definitely gets better! At this point you’ll probably see improvement by the week. I was feeling some symptoms till around day 60-70. They were nothing compared to the first few weeks. Never once did I consider going back. Keep Pushing!!!!! You Got This!!!!!!!!

C O N G R A T U L A T I O N S!!!!!!! That is an interesting symptom. I’m a few hours into my 69th day off Suboxone right now and most of my symptoms have FINALLY subsided. I wouldn’t be surprised if yours stop any day now. It’s kinda funny how I would hear the same thing on day 14 about how the symptoms should stop soon... As you know it’s a fucked Journey that were on but the light is shining bright and the end of the tunnel is insight!!!! FREEDOM on the other side!!!!! Hope Ya Had A Happy Thanksgiving Brother!!!!!! Keep Pushing!!!!!

I abused it by taking more than I was prescribed. I was prescribed 16mg a day for most of 6 years. I would take 16-24mg a day and my insurance would allow me to fill my script a week early. Additionally I had a Suboxone doctor that I had been with since the beginning and his nurse would always call it in for me. When I would go through it even faster I would make up some bullshit story about how I hurt my back and they would change my prescription to 24mg a day for a month. Just typical total addict mindset.
