This may be way out in left field, but I have seen a couple of documentaries on suboxone/subutex/buprenorphine that have absolutely changed people's lives. It can be used for those who abuse opioids or alcohol or both. It removes cravings, calms everything down and allows those who are on it to lead normal lives.

It is a form of opioid, but outlooks from the government and medical establishment are changing to prescribing Buprenorphine, often in the form of a patch for those who have trouble getting or staying clean. They are often on it for a year or two while they get settled into a drug and alcohol free life, and when they titrate off, the desire to use is gone, as their lives have improved so much.

I realize you may or may not be a candidate, but if you interested watch a couple of documentaries on youtube or read some articles on the internet to see if this would be something that may be of help to you. It may be the key to preventing relapses for you.

If it looks like this could be of help to you, bring it up with your pdoc. Hard to tell if he will be up to date on recent attitude changes on this drug.
