Subutex is proving more and more to be HIGHLY effective in most people with long-standing depression/anxiety disorders. LOW doses (025-1 mg daily) seem to be all that is needed. I have a long history of anxiety/panic/depressive episodes that have not responded very well to SSRIs. I also take clonazepam (low dose). I have been on Subutex now for 3.5 years and every time I try to stop taking it I feel foul, unmotivated, negative and angry. Yes, there is withdrawal...yes, there may be some minor side effects...however I truly feel that many people who are life-long depressives are not getting this treatment which has the potential to normalize their lives. I understand the debate about using opiates for depression....addiction...etc. However, I have NO HISTORY of addiction and no interest in increasing my dose. Please feel free to comment and have a dialogue about this medication. If anyone is interested, I will post my "story."

All the best, John
