Have you talked about it with your pdoc?

There was a guy a few months ago who'd gone to Mexico to get bupe and it worked; couldn't get a U.S. pdoc to script him; went to a rehab clinic, faked addiction, and got it. I can't find that thread now.

> Link: http://opioids.com/antidepressant/opiates.htmlI really appreciate that Nyhuis abstract; I hadn't seen anything about it. I wish I could read the article!
I started a buprenorphine-for-depression links page at Babble Tips: http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/psycho-babble-tips/links/buprenorphine_for_de_001146748536/ Someday I want to put up a web page about buprenorphine for TRD, but I'm dragging my feet about that.
