That’s right Romeo, you have to do what you feel is best for you to get clean. I had tried everything in the past. All the support groups, tapering from pills, jumping from those same pills, and finally the Suboxone which I am convinced is the way for me to go. It’s not any kind of miracle drug, but just another TOOL to use in the fight against addiction issues like those other methods are.

I could have used that other method you mentioned, and maybe been successful too, but in the long run I feel reducing my dose as little as possible every 4-7 days is what I myself need right now. I will keep with my plan until it either gets me clean or fails. It will be no one’s fault but my own if it doesn’t work. I will ALWAYS say it’s up to each individual to choose their own method of how they get clean.

My attitude is extremely positive right now, and I will give it all I have in me this time. I am also going to continue with NA/AA support groups with a friend of mine to give me every chance at success this time. All I ask is that everyone respect my choice just like I will surely respect everyone’s else’s choice too.

I see on another thread that you actually jumped from about 8mg of sub and you truly deserve congratulations for being able to do that! That had to be one wild ride? WOW…..good for you my friend!
