Fireman loads of people have said the same thing on here. Recently a member even relapsed on alcohol in the early months after stopping Suboxone. Coincidence? Hard to say.

Also bear in mind that Naltrexone (an opioid antagonist) is used to curb alcohol cravings, so there’s is undoubtedly a link there. As long as those opioid receptors are plugged up, whether with an antagonist or something like Suboxone, you can’t get the same kinda pleasure out of drinking.

Welly I kinda understand what you’re saying. I went through a few periods of getting on Naltrexone or Suboxone only to find myself using amphetamines / cocaine because I still wanted to get high, and my DOC (heroin) wasn’t working. I think it’s different like you said. For me it was more about still wanting to get high.
