| Gday natattack, really sorry about your mum One side effect of Suboxone Iv’e noticed is the lack of a desire to drink alcohol, only been on Suboxone for 10 weeks but in that time I havn’t touched a drink. Considering my past history of serious binge drinking,which has landed me in detox a few times I think my liver is over the moon that I’m on Suboxone. Cheers, Subie |
I too used to be one that would drink occasionally..and even in the end..got away from doing a binge "drunk"…I would drink 3 or 4 tops…just for a relaxing feel…but once I started Suboxone, I quit that even. There was beer in my fridge (like one or two from a six back), when I went on Suboxone full-force…and 9 months later, there was STILL a beer in my fridge, and the last one got poured down the sink..I remember 3 or 4 months after I started Suboxone, I opened one..took about 3 sips from it..and poured the rest out. So the last beer I had stayed in the fridge nearly a year before it was thrown away.
Just doesn’t really appeal to me anymore…I have never been big on drinking..done it quite a bit…but never really got "hooked" into it. But now, when I was taking pills – and chasing pills — i remember even bragging about eating my pills with a beer, just to "kick" the pill a bit and make it feel even better. So I would start out drinking a beer to take my lortabs..then I’d take more lortabs..drink more beer..take more tabs…etc.
Oh, the things that SHOULD have happened to me…but thank God I’m here to day to tell my story!
