We want you to live a drug free life, not dependent on any addictive substance - and yes, methadone and suboxone are addictive. We hope that you will live a drug free life and if you disagree with that - oh well. Why would we want anything less for you? We know it's possible, so that's what we wish for you. And if you have gotten sober on a 12 step program - like our recent interviewee, Craig DeRoche - that's fantastic.</p>
