At first it was hydrocodones and then moved up to Oxycontin's. I became addicted to oxycontin 80's and every day I had to have a tleast one 80 just to get by and feel well. Where I live one 80 cost between 50 and 65 bucks and that got way too expensive for me to pay every single day so I became distraught.
I began taking suboxone after my 4th stay in an inpatient rehab and they gave it to me there for opiate withdrawal and I talked to some people at the rehab about it. I found out that I loved it because it made me feel like I did before I every used drugs.
I loved it because it made me feel like I did before I every used drugs.
I have now been on Suboxone for about 6 months and haven't relapsed into drugs a single time. I honestly feel really well and don't feel depressed anymore. It also helps with anxiety which I have been diagnosed with social anxiety disorder and took xanax and klonopins for a while. I no longer seem to have at all as much anxiety or depression as I once had and I honestly feel happy.
Suboxone has been a wonderful and life saving experience for me and I am forever grateful to it. Suboxone for me (with insurance) is about $3.15 an 8mg pill but when it comes to an 80mg oxy for $50-$65 per day I am getting a way better deal. Also, it feels better to not live that 'drug lifestyle' then keep on going with it.
