I am staying strong and losing alot of people who claimed to be friends but I am not letting that get me down I have to much to live for. I never saw that before. I have been on pain killers since 1993 along with xanax and I feel like a new person since I have been off of the pain killers. Not taking xanax but taking a derivative of that medication. My family was very sceptical about me being on Suboxone, now they are just happy to see me happy and back to a somewhat normal life if there is such a thing as normal!lol I pray that I will be an example to people I know who are addicted and they will ask me how I did it how did I kick pain killers to the curve? I will tell them SUBOXONE and GOD! Just started week 3 on Suboxone, I am glad to know that there are people who are like me and they will talk about addiction and recovery.

Finding help in the beginning of any recovery program can be a scary thing but I believe it is even harder when the person is in a Suboxone treatment program. Not everyone agrees with using medication as a tool in recovery and some people are not shy about voicing their opinion to you. My suggestion is that if you are in Suboxone treatment and looking for support and you run into someone with very strong opinions against Suboxone treatment...keep moving. You will find others out there that will support your road to recovery just as it is. Good luck. Excellent message.
