I have been on 8-12mg of subutex for 11months now.
Long story short is that I am unable to keep taking them due to the fact that I'm not prescribed them and have no access to them any longer.
Truth be told, I'm scared to death because of all the horror stories. Can anyone herehelp me?
Also, I will be working a 48hr work week while fighting withdrawal.
