I'm a former opiate addict. I always will be I choose to be clean today. I was addicted to Vivian but my doc was heroin. It's not that bad but everybody's tolerance to BAD is different. I would strongly suggest subutex and or suboxone. Why torment yourself anymore than you have to. I've been clean 14yrs thank God and subutex and of course AA/NA.Good luck and God bless.Never ever give up.
