This guy’s decision to get off Sub was a lot different to ours. He was using heroin and Sub … a LOT. Every 2-3 days at the least, with periods of maybe 3 weeks of not using heroin…

His decision to get off Sub was more of a decision to "get off everything". So we can’t really translate it to most people in here. He lumped all opioids together in the same boat.

Also, while he’s been clean 30-60 days, he’s yet to have any kind of craving. While in many ways that’s a good thing, it also means his recovery hasn’t really been challenged yet or put to the test. I really hope he does well when the time comes.

Merry xmas.
