You seem to be a good person. Good on you. We have nothing to loose and everything to gain by being kind and understanding towrads others. I think that is where you're comming from.
GOOOD on you.
Pete
Thank you for the kind words, Pete. May you enjoy your 4th of July !
Hi Savannagh
yes i realise that the subutex is not the end only the start - i still have to come of that and face whateveryone else has to face - ie withdrawals from Subutex but as you say hopefully by that time i will be more stronger - i took this way as i knew that i wasnt going to make it by tapering not with the problems around me at the moment. I take my hat of to all of you who are tapering i know it is not easy - ive just put mine off for a while until brain body sprit all catch up with each other. But at least ive taken a step further - better than one back - and couldnt have done it without all you guys.
OH Savannagh Have a happy 4th july - if you celebrate it over there enjoy it.
Dont know about southern ireland but know that north acknowledge it by putting up flags etc and showing us american celebrations over TV.
The big day over her is 12th July - when most of our troubels rise up again. And some pay with it with their lives - i pray that we get through it this year with no casualties - if only they would all stop fighting 30 + years is long enough - although we are getting there slowly
Lots of love rosy - have a good time

Hi Rosy! Good to see you so excited about finally making changes to your health and life.
I wish you well and I pray that your mom will be with you for a long time to come.
My taper is just that; my taper. I have cut out one whole pill for the past 3 days now and I feel like a truck has run over me. I don't feel the w/d symptoms in the morning anymore. I am just in a constant w/d state now. I suppose that's a good thing because once I'm through this, I can work on my recovery without the distraction of w/d.
I am very moody, having nightmares and awful cravings. But there's no turning back now. I will get through it. Thank you for thinking of me Rosy, it means a lot to me.
Keep well

Oh god savannagh - feeling your pain - praying for you to get through it - you are so close to the end and a great inspiration for all on this site. I cant even think of what to say to help you out as i havnt gotten as far as walking in your shoes yet - but i can imagine it. Will light a candle for you
Oh and Savannagh you and everyone elses prayers must be helping my mother as she is believe it or not recovering - although i dont want to get too excited about it yet.
On top of that every thing at home is starting to fall into place - there must be a hand guiding us all when we get so low - actually now i think of it have you ever read the peom footprints - i cried when i read that - im not a religious person as in going to chruch/chaple but i talk to god all the time in my head i dont believe you always need to be in church for god to hear you when you are in trouble.
time to maybe pamper yourself and get lots of rest (im saying this because i havnt got a clue how to help you as i said ) but i hate to see anyone suffering.
lots of love and big hug - you are doing so well savannagh you are so knowledgable about things and i know you will DO IT.

Hi wackyjacky
yeah feelilng quite good at moment as things are starting to fall into place a bit - im trying to give back as much help as i have been given -
Taking it one step at a time and it is working - last week was completly frazzled to say the least - so much on my plate - i think now that i know help is down the line it has given me hope - and better still if Subutex doesnt work - i have seen so many people on the tapering method - that when things are completely settled with me that will be my next goal to re-attempt it that way - so i am trying to cover all avenues - i am going to be disapointed if Subutex doesnt work but at least i know there are other ways out and i intent to get clean no matter what way it is - i know my first go at tapering may not have been at a good time - in fact there is no reason before getting to subutex that i shouldnt try tapering now - slowly and i mean slowly i.e 1/4 of a tablet per day - not five whole tablets at once like the last time -
Anyway how are you doing - saw you posting diary etc this morning but havnt had chance to read yet but will get round to it
hope everything is good for you and you are staying POSITIVE (i.e positves for today thread)
Must start adding some more of mine
lots of love big hug

Hey Outof, I've been offline for a few days, hanging out with the kids, doing the fourth of July stuff. Had a blast, hope you did too. Glad to hear things are progressing well for you with the subutex. I just discovered that my doctor does not prescribe it. Apparantly only certain doctors are allowed to do this. I don't know what their credentials have to be. I was really hopeful about this. It's quite a let down to know it won't be an option for me. Maybe in time all doctors will be prescribing it. Guess I'll have to find another way. Take care, Kathy

Thanks Outof, I'll check that out now. I need to do something positive anyway. Being dissapointed won't get me anywhere. I think attitude is everything so I've allowed myself long enough to be bummed out about it. Thanks and take care, Kathy

Dont get dissapointed - as i have already posted to someone else if subutex fails - i intend to try tapering or whatever way gets me there - there is much strength from others on this board and when you see how they are getting through with whatever way they have chosen to get clean - and they do it - there is hope for us all.
good luck to you - and hugs to all who are nearing their last steps of getting away from this monkey on our backs
love always
