> You must not have heard of Elizabeth. She was here many years ago to challenge the then-dominant opinion here that opioids have no place in the treatment of psychological disorders. Hers are easily some of the best posts on this board, I would definitely recommend doing a search for her posts on buprenorphine.
I remember her, yes. As I recall, she got a lot of crap from some people on the board for being open about taking an opioid for depression and encouraging other people to try it. She was labelled a "drug pusher" and things of that nature.
I started taking buprenorphine in 1999. I remember going to see _The Matrix_ the day I started taking it and vomiting on my way to the theater -- interestingly, I was able to sit through the film without any problems, but I got sick again on my way home afterwards! (I reduced the dose to 0.15mg (0.5mL) for a few weeks until I was able to tolerate a full mL.)
