I think the main thing about online dating is its convenience, and the lack of effort that needs to go into it. I’ll admit I met my current partner online, but that’s not much of a glowing endorsement for online dating. I’ve used this forum to vent about it quite a lot.

truer words have never been spoken lol

i met my wife of 13 years from an online date with one of her friends’ friends’ lol. A/S/L?

Agreed.

You can’t possibly say that suboxone makes you stay home, not meet other addicts, become a part of society. Another case where I truly believe that it’s either an underlying problem that needs looked at or lack of real acceptance. I used to think recovery stuff was worthless and crazy, but now it has turned my life inside out. I feel great alot of the time now. That’s why I recommend it. Just a thought.

When I first started subs up again after a crazy relapse I was outgoing like crazy and getting into all sorts of trouble…the problem is to this day I can STILL get euphoric from it. But after a while all I wanted to do was stay home and melt into the couch, I didn’t work a recovery program though, I did some IOP stuff from inpatient rehab but I didn’t really feel ‘connected’ to anyone there….subs DID make my testosterone plummet into the low 100s though and made my sub doc think I was on roids even though I lost 35 lbs being on subs for 18 months.

Advice for guys on subs: get your testosterone checked. It made a pretty big difference for me. Just stay away from the androgel. It’s messy and I don’t feel it’s as effective. Plus if you live with a female you gotta separate laundry and all that

Help? To stop suboxone or not to stop, that is the question

Holy Smokes Anabel, I love your last post!! You resisted the urge to use and that’s phenomenal!!!

You should print out your last post and glue it to your forehead cuz it is awesome!!

And, your last post helped me, too. I’ve been off Suboxone for a good while now, but I still need reminders like the ones you just provided, so Thank You!! Wink

10+ years of 24mg of Suboxone per day, just lost my meds :(

Shit, that sucks, Doober!!

I have to think that your doctor will call you in the meds, though. If your 10 year history has been pretty clean, I’m thinking he won’t have a problem calling it in. We’ve had people here before in kind of similiar situations and their doctor always called them in more.

If for some reason he doesn’t call them in, you will more than likely experience wd, but Suboxone wd is NOT as intense as the wd from your previous drugs. Don’t get me wrong, Suboxone wd can suck, but it’s not the kind of wd where you’re begging God to kill you.

Please let us know what happens tomorrow.

I am NOT an addict!

If you don’t want to label yourself, no one here will care. You can call it a chemical dependency if you prefer. I do find it odd that a forum would ban you just because you won’t say certain words.

You will find support here. No one here is banned unless they break the rules or act like a flaming troll telling everyone they are wrong on whatever subject. We encourage free speech as long as the member has manners and doesn’t insult the whole forum.

Welcome here!

One of my all time favorite live bands.. It’s too bad the original bassist isn’t in this one but he passed away several years back. The drummer of this band is my favorite drummer, I’ve had a crush on him for at least 14/15 years. He’s just so good in person and so sweet.

Ok, one my fav songs from Gov’t Mule
