Default please help me,Addicted

Hello every one, I have been addicted to norco 10/325 for about a year I take any where from 25 to 30 a day and I just want to stop and get better and get my life back. I stopped taking the norco and about 32 hours into my withdrawls a close family member who also had the same addiction problem gave me 5 suboxone 8mg tablets. I took one under my tounge and felt better about an hour later. I am dirt poor have no insurance and this was the only way I could get this medication. My question is this this, I am feeling fine now, I took another dose this morning, and I am wondering if i can just stop taking the suboxone ? will I have withdrawls? How long does one have to take suboxone to become addicted? thank you so much for any help or advice you give. Im ready to beat this

You're NOT taking it correctly. You don't just decide on your own how that you need 8mg. Your family member doesn't know how to prescribe subs either. That is what happens when people take medication that "a friend/family member" gave them. Since you only have a few just spread them out as far as you can. I can't give you a plan how to use five subs. Good luck. God bless.

Default Thank you

Thanks for your response Robert, I really appreciate it, I guess I am in just a really bad state right now, and was in so much pain I would have done anything to feel better. I guess my only other question is will taking the sub a few times cause me withdrawals?
