Tired and Sick on Suboxone: What Would Junig Do?

September 26, 2009 by admin 7 Comments

I recently receive e-mails or read posts at Suboxone Forum that go something like this: I used all kinds of pain pills over the past ten years—Vicodin, then oxycodone, methadone, and even fentanyl patches.

Addiction, Pseudo-Addiction, and Dependence

January 15, 2009 by admin 3 Comments

I am now in charge of the ‘expert forums’ for both addiction and chronic pain over at medhelp.org.  I was happy to take the position, as I had battled the folks on the ‘community forum’ in the distant past over Suboxone, and the expert forum allows me a small platform to present the other side … [Read more…]

It's the Paradigm, Silly!

January 5, 2009 by admin 3 Comments

I talk quite a bit about the letters from ‘flamers’, but don’t often mention the messages of support from grateful people on Suboxone, and the nice comments from my patients.  I enjoy speaking to patients on Suboxone about the things said for example by the silly pharmacist in the last post, and as I try … [Read more…]
