Suboxone: Has Anyone Been on a Suboxone Program? How Did It Work? Did You Have to Go to N.A. to Recive the Meds?

Question by Bam Bam: Has anyone been on a suboxone program? How did it work? Did you have to go to N.A. to recive the meds?
I am taking 12-20 10mg oxycodone a day i NEED to stop!

Best answer:

Answer by Lone
Yep, I did a suboxone program. It was a joke. Yes, the doctor insisted I attend group counseling which was 12 step based, and I had to pay an additional $ 20 per session. It was almost worth it for the laughs though.

Trouble is, after being on sub for over a year, it stopped working, and it was honestly 10 times harder to kick than oxy. The withdrawals aren;t as bad as oxy, but they last forever…I was in withdrawal for a full 30 days coming off sub, and this was after months of torturous weaning. Then when I finally started to be able to sleep and the shaking stopped, I had another year plus of PAWS.

Here is the quote in partial context:

“Religious suffering is, at one and the same time, the expression of real suffering and a protest against real suffering. Religion is the sigh of the oppressed creature, the heart of a heartless world, and the soul of soulless conditions. It is the opiate of the people.”

(From “Contribution to Critique of Hegel’s Philosophy of Right,” by Karl Marx, 1843.)
