September 18, 2011 by admin Leave a Comment

Weeks ago I posted a few new ideas—things like a memorial wall for victims of opioid dependence, and a ‘wall of shame’ for doctors who are known for reckless prescribing of opioids.  I mentioned these ideas over at SuboxForum as well. I received good feedback from readers here, and from members there.  Sometimes the best … [Read more…]

Scam City

August 18, 2011 by admin Leave a Comment

When Suboxone first became an option for treating addiction to pain pills back in 2003, some people were excited about having a cure for opioid dependence. Those people were mistaken. It is true that Suboxone has been a huge benefit for treating opioid dependence, but the medication cannot cause the permanent changes in the brain … [Read more…]

Almost Ready to Get Help?

February 17, 2011 by admin 1 Comment

Another chapter from my untitled book, ‘Clean Enough,’ begins with comments from a reader of my blog.  The picture has nothing to do with anything, except that the Packer win was pretty awesome.  The view is from my seat at Lambeau during a game this season.

Clean Enough, 2.8 and 2.9

November 11, 2010 by admin Leave a Comment

Treating myself In the spring of 1993 I took codeine cough medicine for a cold.  A few weeks later I was still taking the codeine each evening.  It worked so well; finally I could relax and get some quality sleep!  I started feeling more irritable in the morning as the codeine wore off, so I … [Read more…]

Clean Enough, Chapter 1.3: Bias of the book

October 20, 2010 by admin 1 Comment

Introduction Bias of the book You will notice the several times throughout the book I take issue with people over what they say about buprenorphine treatment of opiate dependence.  On my web sites I have been told by those who favor ‘total sobriety’ that I am biased in favor of Suboxone.  I don’t know how … [Read more…]

The book

October 12, 2010 by admin 3 Comments

I’ve been writing teasers for a book about buprenorphine for a couple years now.  I keep very busy trying to maintain a solo psychiatry practice, and for awhile there I was running constantly… keepiing the practice going by day and writing nonstop at night.  I’m not sure what possessed me at the time;  I know … [Read more…]
