Before my relapse on heroin I had 7 years clean and sober in AA. I considered myself to not be clean when I went on Suboxone and I had a lot of shame around being on a maintenance program. Like I was somehow not truly sober or I was weak for using suboxone.
I’d still prefer to not be on any meds and the side effects of suboxone, occasional headaches, low sex drive, depression suck but I’ve just accepted that I’m dependent on this mediation at this point in my life and I’m not going to try to taper myself off until my doctor says it’s a good time.
