Hi Queenie, it’s good to hear from you. At one point my doc raised my dose to 16 mg/day because I was having cravings, and I STILL had cravings at that level. I have to believe it’s psychological and not physical cravings, because at that dose your receptors are 98% saturated. Maybe having to take pills all the time is a trigger, or maybe just the stress of having one health crisis after another is doing it. I feel for you, I know how powerful cravings can be. All I can suggest is that when you think about using, play the tape all the way to the end. Don’t just remember the high, but remember all the misery that came with it. In the meantime distract yourself as much as possible. If you can’t get out, try to get on the phone with someone. And as always, feel free to PM me anytime.
You will be in my thoughts,
Lilly
