It’s tough talking about cravings, because I believe there are actually two kinds of cravings – physiological AND psychological. In other words, there are those based on actual, physical cravings – those that can be satiated by taking suboxone. Then, in my opinion, there are still psychological "cravings". These are the ones I look at as the cravings people still have even though they are at max sub dose though they are still experiencing said cravings (or they’ve been off opiates for years). They may even believe them to by "physical", but with enough opiates in their brain (or none needed), that simply isn’t likely.
Everyone has their own idea of how to define cravings and I don’t even know if there’s one singular definition of the word for our usage. I highly doubt it. I guess that’s why it’s so important for us to explain what we mean when we use that word.
Thanks for sharing that with us Tear – quite interesting.
