opiate dependence
"I really worked myself up with reading Suboxone horror stories online. I was very scared that I was taking it but I was lucky to have a very understanding doctor. He explained to me that people explain the bad more than the good. I had a very positive experience with Suboxone and was on it for 2 years. Trouble sleeping at first, bathroom problems but much better than with the OCs, but my doctor helped address all my concerns and I started living a very healthy lifestyle and now I can keep all my teeth. Taper,taper,taper I went from 16mg to 1mg if you go to fast there can be horrible withdrawal but worse relapse to whatever opiate you started from. Don't believe the terrible stories and remember anything is possible if with hope."
