sleepless here, again
thanks to those of you who replied! i looked for my first post and am unable to find it but here is a little more info:
been on opiates like norcos, loritabs and oxys for 2 yrs. had surgery and got back on them so making it now almost 3 yrs.
now i want to QUIT! the oxys are gone so all i have had is methadone. i take about 20-40mgs a day (not that much if you ask me) i dont get "high" anymore just help me make it thru the day painless... not high by any means. i have a subutex connect but just want some advice. i realize no one here is authorized to tell me what/how much of anything to take but based on personal experience, does anyone have any type of knowledge to share? how many subs should i start out with... will it be miserable? will i be addicted to subutex now? what are your personal experiences?
anything and everything is appreciated and helpful, thanks so much everyone. this is a great thing you guys are doing here.

We can't give you medical advice here.
In any case, the best advice really is to get your subs through a Dr - that way you'll be sure that that's the appropriate treatment for you and you'll be able to ask them any questions you might have.
