Hey TJ,

Sorry to hear about your slip. My best advice is pretty much the same as some others have said, learn from this experience and use it to make your recovery stronger.

If you let yourself get bogged down in the doom and gloom of "I used again", it’ll drive you to use even more.

BTW, what the hell are you doing with this dude’s phone number who scored the H for ya? You know better than that. Throw that damn number out. Actually, PM me his phone number so I can call him and threaten to shove a kangaroo up his ass if he ever sells ya dope again, then throw his number out!!!

Lets be honest, we like Suboxone because it gets us high.

Hey guys,

This is completely off topic, and I apologize. I normally wouldn’t cut into another topic like this, but since I know this thread has the attention of just about everyone here, I am prepared to be a little unorthodox.

I really want everyone to take note of Dr. Junig’s latest post in Talk Zone Articles, specifically the one called "Take Action". Dr. Junig has created a petition to the White House that asks for the 100 person limit to be raised for doctors who can prescribe suboxone. It’s an important issue for those of us on suboxone and it deserves our attention. The link to the petition is:

This has been a public service announcement from me (Amy). Now back to your regularly scheduled programming…

sorry i can’t put every thing in one post. but why should AA/NA be putting soboxone in it’s place when they can’t even recover from the thing that got all of us here in the first place. i think some body should right a new book called exp’t the meds that
may help the impossible and walk the faith believing we have to some times still take medicine.

Thanks for the welcome, words of encouragement and advice, Romeo! Much appreciated!

Day 7 in the books. I felt much better than yesterday. I was a little groggy to start the day but it could have been the NyQuil I took the night before. More so than the physical, which I’m really grateful for, I’m starting to see mental improvements. Like how I perceive things, which directly affects my mood or feelings about them. This is exciting! It’s also starting to set in that I’m no longer dependent on opiates, suboxone treatment or not, and that feels awesome! I’ll continue to check back, but if I don’t pop in tomorrow, HAPPY NEW YEAR!!
