Suboxone mysteries

[Dog55]

It seems that suboxone is the topic with the most mystery. I can't seem to  get a straight answer from anyone. I've been on it for a while and have had some interesting experiences; many were not among those I'd read about. I would like to converse with someone who is also on this drug and share experiences. Let me know if you're on it or if you have been and gotten off.

Wow lack of appetite, energy all of that is news for me but I have to say that since I was put on suboxone I have gained 15 pds but I also was put on lexapro and trileptal at the same time and I know that is what made me put on the pds, now I'm of the lexapro and trileptal and yes I can see the difference as far as the appetite goes.
Overall I been on sub for 4 months and I have to say that sub probably save my life to cause the rate I was going I don't think I would have lasted much longer.
But I have to say that since yesterday when I watch a episode of Intervantion this lady was on suboxone and like 4 other meds and she was still abusing pain killers, soma and the other meds so my question is I really thought that sub would help you with the cravings? it does me no craving of pills.
My opinion

Sub does help with cravings, actually for alot of people it takes them away almost completely.  It's kinda odd that the woman would be taking sub along with narcotics... it should've been making her sick, plus combining sub with benzos can cause an overdose.  I dunno I guess everyone reacts to it a little bit differently...

yeah you should have seen her she was from Las Vegas, she was taking 24 mgs of sub, seroquel twice a day, trazadone three times a day, soma every 4 hours and she was taking pain pills she didn't say what kind because her husband and friends kept looking the pills from her cause she od three times.

I've been on sub since May 15 and haven't had any cravings. That's one thing that went away immediately.
