You have to go to a "suboxone clinic" and you live in boston or NY? You can't just go and get a script? I disagree with the "ceiling" being 4mg, as I was on 16 and it was the perfect dose for me. Then again, I had a bundle and a half a day habit. I really wish you people who are "detoxing" from oxy, hydro, etc.. wold stay the fuck away from bup bc it's gonna lead to more regs and higher prices and keep it away from ppl who are REALLY fucked up and really need it. What the hell has happened to this site? I used to feel like a pretty avg person with my 1.5 bundle/ 1 gram of posh speedball habit. Now there are ppl here "worrying about coming off 80 mg of oxy that they don't even use every day? Worried about coming off hydro? Try comiing off 180 mg methadone cold on a jail cell floor. Trying shooting coke until you start hearing "the bells of st. mary's and wondering if your heart will explode this time. People like THAT are the ones who need bupe. Almost everyone else I've read about on here just needs a good kick in the balls. Yes you can flame away at me and no, I don't think I'm the ultimate "hard ass," but jesus christ what happened in 4 yrs? Suddenly this site is full of 14 yr old kids who reached into mom's PMS headache stash for the first time and are worried they're doing on mom's 15 mg codeine/asap. Certainly not saying you should "aspire" to be real hard core user, but if you don't have the propensity that makes you do things like cross san yisidro and come back praying el perro no smell your chiva, or get on an a 767 with a few bundles in one of your film cases,a metal spoon taped to a small yogurt, and a 25 g with the needle detached from the syringe (the metal needle is too small for the machine to pick up but always have a diabetic carrying card just in case) so an hr into the flight you can make your way to the bathroom with your little carry on bag, undo your belt and get off at 30,000 get over the sierra-nevada (ok, I am a bit proud of that one as risky as it was), then be glad you are normal and go...live life like normal ppl do.
