Opiate Dependence
"I was addicted to pain pills for 35 years and didn&#039;t think I would ever live a normal life again until I found Suboxone - it literally saved my life. I started out taking Emprin #4 - that&#039;s what my OB/GYN prescribed after I had my first baby - and I have to admit I was immediately drawn to the euphoric feeling I got from taking one little pill.  They were easy to get at first, but as my habit grew I got more creative and started forging scripts.  Eventually, I ended up in jail, lost several fantastic jobs, almost lost my family.  I hear Suboxone is harmful if taken long-term, but I&#039;ve been on it for 8 yrs and don&#039;t ever plan on stopping - it&#039;s the only way I can function normally so it&#039;s worth the risk for me."
