Welcome to SR!

My daughter is on the suboxone program (for the 2nd time, UGH!). Her physician's protocol is that in order to stay on the program, they drug test every visit and she has to have documentation that she is attending some type of therapy or NA program. To me that just makes sense. You can take medication for the withdrawal and cravings but if you don't get some help for the mental health side of it then meds aren't going to help. Just a thought, maybe the doctor could mandate that she starts therapy along with a treatment plan.
