At the risk of coming over all waggy of finger, I tend to agree with Dan. Getting off the bupe is a great achievement - you should be suitably chuffed with yourself cos the boy dun good - but keep an eye out for replacing one habit with another. It's such a common occurence it's a cliche. A very accurate and real cliche at that. It's soooooo easy to just use some other drug (or combination of drugs) to "replace" the bupe (or indeed anything else one happens to be addicted to). Alcohol is often the way it goes but benzos are another biggy. Stims would be less common as a "replacement" but certainly plenty go that route too.
Ultimately, us addict types just have to learn to live without being fukked on a daily basis. It's not easy. Not easy at all. I can't rightly say that I've quite gotten there myself yet given I'm back on a daily bupe script. However, I'm using it for somewhat different reasons than I used to. I almost never use it purely for pleasure and I have been managing the odd few days - even the odd few weeks - without using anything on top of it. Definitely a big step forward for me but still very much on shaky ground. Keep slipping with booze in particular. It's just so much easier to do daily compared with most other drugs I like. At least it is in my current situation
But yeah, it's worth watching out for replacing bupe with other stuffs whether that be bumping up your existing benzo habit or leaning too heavily on EPH to put a lil spring in your step and perk up llfe in general. It is shite feeling so flat and... well... "normal" when you're used to feeling enhanced one way or another. You do get used to it - even get to quite enjoy it - eventually. I know cos even I've managed to get there for a while once or twice. Not quite managed to stick to it properly longterm but getting there. And if I can anybody can :D
