Default Question for Robert 325 (xanax)

Robert

I am on day 4 of kicking herion. I'm pretty sick still. One of the meds suggested with detox is xanax however I had a pretty good xanax love affair which ended 6 month ago. I have not taken any since, If I make the choice to use xanax with my withdrawal what potiential risk of my addiction restarting with xanax.

Got a suggestion?

thx jj

jj ..... I'm in Seattle too. I've done everything known to man going back to 1968. I know that xanax isn't going to make this work right. It can help some, but the way to go is with suboxone.

I know it didn't go right for you the first time, but I know how to help you do it right. Ask around about me and if what I say works. I promise that I can help you get through this with minimal problems, but you have to follow my instructions to the letter or you'll be wasting your time.

I'm going to hit the shower, been in pretty tough shape myself lately with pain issues. But if you do what I ask you to do I can get you through this.

Try to stay positive, and realize that you can get out of this hell. But you didn't get in this spot overnight. It takes a little time and it takes a lot of commitment.

Talk with me tomorrow and tell me how I can help you if you want me to. I'm here ever day. My time has been limited the last week or two as I've been struggling myself. But I'm here to help you if I can. Talk with you later. God bless.

Hi Addicted - just adding my 2 cents worth...

As for Xanax - no way. Just another nightmare waiting to happen. In my humble opinion, the chances of addiction is damn near 100%.

As for Robert and his suggestion of suboxone - I agree completely. Robert is the man to turn to for help with detox, especially about suboxone. He's helped many through this forum.

God bless you in your journey - you're in my prayers,
Ruth
