Thanks Baggervance. He had been weened down to 1 mg of Suboxone the morning before he went into rehab. He already told me this afternoon that he isn't feeling as much discomfort as he did when he tried to detox at home after quitting at 3 mg. I am so glad you wrote to me so I can get a better perspective. But I still don't know what to do with his thinking that he can just leave the facility in a week after he detoxes. I feel that he needs to stay and do the 30 day program because that fulfills the gift he has been given. From my perspective, I will just be enabling him if I go and get him before his time is up. And I am not going to have that on my conscience the rest of my life. (By the way, I am originally from Tennessee (Memphis).
