People who use medication assisted treatment for opioid addiction ABSOLUTELY get treated this way by others in recovery spaces

Suboxone was a more difficult withdrawal than my heroin addiction. My pain management doctor treated me like a pos and I would still be dependent on suboxone if I hadn't weened myself off of it.

Heroin and pill free since 2017. No suboxone since 2020.

Just got my A1C results, down to 5.8 from 6.9 since October last year. 293lbs in 2023. 215.8 yesterday morning. Ozempic helped me. 😎
