Hello
I was using about 16 vics a day for a while. I broke my ankle in half last year. I went ct in february. It was ok. But..... my girlfriend of 4 years left me in July. So i relapsed. I took my last vicodin on Oct 17th, took sub for 26 days, if i had to do it again I would NOT take the sub.
Ive been off everything for 22 days now. Im feeling wonderful. It was hell, but i made it. It will be a month very soon
You can do it my friend

Kass, reddog is three weeks into recovery and he used Suboxone for a very short term. He says that he would not recommend it to anyone with a small addiction, at least that is what he has told me..
Yea Pam, I didnt like the sub, I would not take it again. But everyone here is different so i cant say who should or should not take it. There is no way to beat the system. You have to face yor demons some time or another. There is no "free" lunch with the vics. From what others have said opiate detox will not kill you. Now benzos lol they are a much bigger demon. Thank God i never enjoyed them

Well, it is snowing in parts of Texas right now and that is not a good sign for Florida. Usually whatever it does in Texas it does in Florida just a few days later........Uuuuggghhhhh, I hate cold weather. Man, sorry you have to shovel snow before you drive to work... That would be a sick day for me.......LOL
Seriously Reddog, I'm glad that you are doing better, you even sound much better. You keep up the good work my man....I'll be checking in on you from time to time.

YOU KNOW I GET PRESCRIBED 90 XANAX BARS A MONTH AND I TRIED THEM AND DONT THINK I COULD GET AN ADDICTIOIN FOR THOSE. THEY ARE GOOD ON OCASION FOR SEVERE PANIC ATTACKS. I DONT LIKE THEM EITHER, GUESS HE JUST LIKES TO PRESCRIBE THEM. ARE THEY HELL TO COME OFF OF?
Thanks Pam, its going to be a very Merry Christmas isnt it.
dude xanex? That is the worst benzo there is. My sub dr said it has a very short half life and you want more and more. Plus you can have a seizure coming off them. 90 a month not good man. So if you take benzos and opiates you need a dr. Coming off the combo can be dangerous, anyone else agree??
Oh Hell Kass, RUNNNNNNNNNNNNN from the Xanax bars........If you think that opiate withdrawal is bad, well, you have another thing coming and Benzo's are highly addictive.... Girl, you need to throw that crap out now or you will have a major problem.......and Benzo withdrawals can be life threatening.. People have seizures coming off of Benzo's...........Oh Boy,,,,,,,,what a doctor you have...
Its true
I agree - I was on Xanax for 2 years with a dose of 3 blues (think they are 5mg) a day.
Nope, blues are .1mg not .05 mg but they are all bad and need to be flushed asap...........
EVEN THOUGH I CANT REMEBER THE LAST TIME I TOOK JUST A 4TH OF A BAR {HAVE NEVER IN MY LIFE TOOK A WHOLE ONE} IM GLAD I MENTIONED IT. SH*T!!!!!!!!!!!SEIZURES....DAMN DUDE THATS SERIOUS. GONNA HAVE A TALK W/ MY DOC...DIDNT EVEN ASK HIM FOR THE XANAX. THANKS FOR SHEDDING THE LIGHT. IT WOULDNT BOTHER ME 1 BIT TO NEVER TAKE ONE AGAIN. GLAD I CAUGHT ON TO THAT
Kass Relax:
See your doctor they can wean you off the zanax with valium. We are all different but small amounts of Benzo's taken as directed along with Suboxene is sometime needed.
How mych Sub are you on?
Why your doctor would prescribe 2mg? Do you suffer from severe pannic attacks?
Zanax should be used only in an emergency. Its a bad drug. I would take 5-10 pills cut them in half and can someone hold them for you in case you need?

Hey guys:
I was just checking out this thread. Wow. I've never been a benzo girl myself. I never got a taste for them plus when I was prescribed them, and took them for a few days the next day off them I am one mean, violent, and plain nasty person. That is the complete oppostie of my personality.
My mom many, many years ago took librium. You know back in tthe day when "housewives" were nervous, and bugged by their kids. So the Doc gave you a little sumptin, sumptin.
Anyway she was on them for years. I remember watching her tear the house apart looking for just one more before she had to get them refilled. I mean looking in pocketbooks, and pockets of stuff. We were only kids, but we recall that desperation.
One dinner time night I remember her looking for her bottle. Nobody could find it. My dad goes "I have them, and you're done. Those things are ruling you". Well what a scene. It culminated with my dad dumping the entire bottle down the toilet. Now learning all this about benzo's it's lucky she didn't seizure out.
Just wanted to add all that. It was months before she got right. Man, the people from the generation of like WWII and such they didn't play. You had to kick something you just did it, and weren't allowed to complain.
Thanks for the info all.
