Can anyone give any tips or insight to what to do if u have an urge to use again. Obvious things like calling Dr. Moss, or someone else in your support group, are know.

Are there other things that we as addicts could use to our advantage.

Thanks,

Whenever I begin to feel the urge to use I take my medicine. Since the medicine has at least a 24 hr. half-life in your system as long as you are taking the medicine every day you wont be able to use.

Sometimes when I wake up and it's been the awhile since I last took the medicine I have some pretty strong cravings, but like I said, I handle it by tricking myself into taking the medicine. Then, there is no option to use.

Thats a good idea, but often i find myself craving even after a dose.

Its weird i dont go into motions to get any opiods, but i think about them. I would be a real mess if i wasnt on the medication. Dr. Moss should be a saint, because he saved my life, so far anyways...lol
