Even if I'm not glad for your suffering (of course!), I'm glad someone understands this is a "thing". I heard so many times this is just a light addiction, it's so not. My friend's friend who is also struggling started quitting before me and isn't through it yet. I understand that, because it is difficult indeed.

OK that the physical withdrawals from buprenorphine hit me harder than those from Tramadol, "only" Tramadol withdrawals are bad enough. And since Tramadol affects more transmittor substances it is a more complex drug, so it is basically like coming off two things.

This substance isn't anything toying around with. Where I live it's soon the number one drug to die from. Cheap and accessible.
