Sorry dirtysouth that you have had a bad experience on subs. I hope you feel better soon and are able to stay off opiates.

I guess Im just confused about what you mean about "the rhetoric of the pro-subbers" and there being no whete to turn to get the straight story about sub. This website is to support people with recovery no matter what they choose. Dr J does not get money from RB, the makers of sub and nobody is being paid here to say how great it is. We are just addicts sharing our own personal experience.

I will have been on suboxone for three years this April. It has not been a perfect three years. I was arrested for driving while on sub and got that reduced to negligent driving. I have relapsed and almost lost my career and my family. I have been depressed at times, happy at times, emotionless at times, etc…But I have never blamed a little orange pill or strip for my problems. I have finally found some good support and have been working on the real problem. Me. I think suboxone has kept me alive for the past three years and there will come a time where I wont need it. Until then, I am grateful for suboxone and realize how lucky I am that I have a good doctor that I can afford. I know many don’t.

Sub may not have been the right choice for you, but it saved my life for sure.
