Sounds like you are in the same boat with me. I used to take methadone. I switched to Subs 2 years ago. I was taking way too much Suboxone...but it was better to take those than methadone..wicked drug..by far the worst to come off of! I think Suboxone is the second worst if abused. My oxy and heroin habbit set me up for a rollercoaster ride i would of never imagined. It's been 2 years since I've done Heroin or Oxy. I am so thankful to be where I am at today. I've lost alot due to my last 10 years of drug use. Time to grab the bull by the horns and do this!
Sweet. I love sub success stories. I did a fast taper and am on day 4 no subs. I was only on them 16 days, but couldn't get away from the methadone. I want to wake up excited again, I can't wait. Thanks for leading the way. I know what you mean about doing it for yourself. 100 or so relapses in, I hit bottom pretty hard and relapse now means death. Even as I went about my business, I was dead, but no more. Every day gets better.
Thankyou, and grats on 7 weeks! Depression can be manys downfall and a trigger to relapse. It took me several times to figure that out. I also noticed that I always tried quitting for reasons other than for myself. We have to want to be done deep down. I never was in the past. I guess I made up every excuse to fall, but it all matters to choice in the end. I always caved in. Counseling has helped me understand this greatly.
Great news....congratulations! I'm ahead of you by 4 weeks....today is my 7 week "anniversary". I honestly feel better than I have in years! I can't wait to get up in the morning and get busy taking care of my house and my animals. For about a month, I was so listless and depressed. Being clean is a wonderful gift that we give ourselves!
