I've just now be prescribed suboxone for my addiction to heroin. I'm only wondering in the order of the nouns rate.?
This drug is new to me. I haven't heard much about it. The only things that I do know something like it are the things I have read on the internet. I am willing to give it a chance. I've be on methadone program before and it worked. It just became too expensive. I was competent to get off methadone and kept clean for 4 months. Unfortunately, I recently relapsed. My investigational doctor only prescribes suboxone for heroin addicts. This is my second week on my medication, and isn't working the same way methadone did for me. My cravings are mind-boggling. I'm an emotional wreck and highly irritable. I know my second week on methadone was completely different. My cravings had subdued and I wasn't as violent. I feel helpless at the moment. There aren't any methadone clinics in my area accepting new patients at this time, and my doctor solely prescribes suboxone for heroin addicts. I am trying to stay as positive as possible, and remind myself that I am doing the right thing. But each day seem to get harder. I just wanted to know if anyone else has be through the same thing. For example, anyone else who had a hard time while taking suboxone. Are these cravings and breakers of emotions going to subside or is this medication not working for me? I'm not trying to give up on suboxone, but I know this isn't how I felt when I be on the methadone program. I have read that suboxone is highly recommended and people say it is easier to procure off of when compared to methadone. BUT I don't want to get off of it. I realize that I have an opiate dependency. I want to repair that section of my brain. And methadone was working. I wish I would have stayed on it, but I couldn't afford it at the time. And when I stopped taking methadone, I was competent to deal with the detox by weening myself off of it slowly. With this said, does anyone knows how to find a private doctor who will prescribe methadone. I know that works and I am likely to stay on the program this time no matter the amount of money. The last thing I want to do is continue to be a junkie. I enjoy accepted that I will always be an addict, but I would like to be a recovering one from presently on. Any suggestions? Advice?

You CAN power through this, and RESIST the cravings!
Take it one hour at a time. Try some exercise, and be sure to eat, even if you don't feel so hungry.
Continue with the Suboxone.
Call the doctor who prescribed you the Suboxone, and touch base. Maybe he can incorporate something else.
Also, going to an NA (Narcotics Anonymous) meeting might help. At least it's something to do!
