Hi Happy_Dude60, NewbieOne, Expanse, RooRshack, a d everyone else! trying hard...very very hard, to keep positive. I have been on Suboxone sublingual film strips (about 10 mgs a day)since December. Things started out pretty good..but gone down hill =/ Suboxone has not proved to be a miracle drug for me. I'm not gonna go into detail...but just gonna say that Um still fighting depression and this exhaustion. Heavy, heavy exhaustion. ~btw I am writing on my phone so sorry for any typos. Anyways, just a few questions for you ~ if you don't mind answering =)... 1) Do you feel your opiate addiction or use has caused you to be less physically attractive! Like, how meth rots your teeth and causes your face to look "sunk in" look a rotting, decaying zombie. I really don't believe opiates harm your looks at all. But I dont know. I do know though that when you've gone through opiate withdrawal about 100 or 200 times like me..even at the young age of 24..it does affect your looks. Just the stress alone withdrawals put on your body (and mind!)well as you know, the mind is basically one with the body. So mental stress also causes physical stress. But also having gone through withdrawals too many times to count, and being depressed, I have slacked on personal care. My teeth for example. I dont care for my teeth as much as I used to. I still do! But not nearly as much. There are a few other things, like fitness, etc. Has opiate addiction caused you to take less care of yourself?? Just curious. 2) SUBOXONE: What are your opinions on it thus far, if you are on it? I'm not too satisfied with it, unfortunately ; ( I am trying, really trying. Please believe me. I am drinking less and much less suicidal. And I guess you could say I'm doing better. But barely. Any suggestions? Experience?? And yes yes...I am curious if there is any possible way to get a buzz off it every once in awhile. Because? Because I deserve it! I'm a good person, despite my fallacies, I deserve to feel lifted every once in awhile. And so do you! I have a tolerance to about 8 mg. Is there any way for me to get buzzed?? Opinions? Help? Expertise? Overall...just want any and all opinions on Suboxone. ~Thank you
