43 is my lucky number and i have been clean of pain killers for 43 days now!!
thanks from some help from my doctor and subuxone and this board!

i can't believe how great i feel, i have money in the bank and it's great not chasing that evil drug oxycontin!! i look back and i cannot believe my whole life used to revolve around finding that stuff!

so i want to thank god and everyone on this board who helped me thru these very tough times, i really appreciate all the support!!!!!

Congratulations V, it's a great feeling isn't it? I am 19 months clean thanks to this board, suboxone and my doctor also! It's amazing to me that I can feel this good, be this productive and have all my energy back.
Now, if I can just get this shoe habit under control

, just kidding, but it is great to have the money to spend on shoes that I used to waste on those stupid, rotten pills.
Good luck to you

Way to go all of you,buprenorphene is fast becoming a gold standard for addiction.I was actively addicted for 22 years and had an exceptionally high tolerence so buprenorphene wasn't in my cards but methadone was.It's been 4 years now and my life couldn't be better.I come to these boards now to offer my experiences and advocate for both methadone and buprenorphene.Good day to all of us.....Dave
