Yes, that's why I said no offense to the dissenters- we're addicts, we want to use, duh. For the sake of being fully honest, I will add that I have been on Suboxone for over a year and it has helped TREMENDOUSLY with the cravings. It wasn't enough so I had to start working "the program" too to put together any sobriety- but its been a huge component of my recovery and my sponser says I should get at least six months clean before trying to taper. If you have the money, desire, resources for sub I would highly recommend it- I actually had a month clean when I went on it, people tried to discourage me left and right because they felt it was only a detox med but in my heart I knew what was right for me and I wanted to use every tool possible to fight the cravings. These cravings are powerful and don't let anyone try to underplay their role- bless you in your journey however you choose to fight them.
