I asked for suboxone once when I was in a hospital and they considered it. As it turned out, they put me on parnate and it worked. I am actually glad. Suboxone is an opiate. You build up tolerance and can't get off it, like methadone. Psychic pain is awful and trumps physical pain, I know. But opiates are bad news. Some people find tramadol helpful and that's the least addictive of opiates. But it's still an opiate and keeping on scrip with an opiate is hard. Tolerance builds quickly, doctors get suspicious, the FDA investigates them. Bad news all around.
