[QUOTE="mrsammler, post: 436915"] I concur with comments here wrt not letting him get suboxone if he's still on pot and alcohol and asking for suboxone. My difficult child nephew told me, in one of his standard bouts of "complete honesty" (i.e., mixing "total" truth with strategic omissions) between spasms of misbehavior, that all addicts ask for methadone and suboxone, pretending to want it to shake H, just to sell it or use it for the high until they get some more H. Believe me--you'll know when he's ready to really quit everything because a) he will have hit a very hard, inarguable bottom and will be really, utterly miserable--and you just need to wait for this and not rush it--and b) you won't feel *any* hunches or misgivings about getting this sort of medication for him. Until that day comes, you need to be cynical and let your instincts guide you. He is obviously scamming for the high or to sell it to get the high--you obviously intuit this. Your instincts don't lie--listen to them. [/QUOTE]
