opiate dependence
"I'm 25 years old and have been a addict for almost 7 years now. I got the addiction from taking painkillers my doctor gave me after have a gastric bypass. I was 17 years old and did not know pain killers were so addictive. Ever since then I have been through hell. It changed me as a person and drove me and my family apart. I have tried so many things to get me off of them. I went to rehab 1 time and cold turkey stopped taking them a few times. I went right back. Finally I tried the Suboxone, THIS MEDICINE HAS CHANGED MY LIFE. I'm back to the old me. I also have gained my families trust back. I feel like a normal person and I never think about any kind of drugs anymore. "
