If you search yahoo for the answers, you come up with “auricular” and it has to do with the inner ear. “Auricular acupuncture has been used to treat addictive behaviors with variable success.” At another sight, it states auricular therapy “The most common reported uses have been for control of chronic pain, detoxification from addictions, (smoking and heroin and cocaine), relief from nausea, and high blood pressure. ” Apparently, it is their belief that “Almost all health conditions can be affected to some degree by stimulated ear points.”

Opinion on Suboxone Therapy?
Question by Taunya and Justin: Opinion on Suboxone therapy?
I have been addicted to opiates (pills only) for a little over 3 years on and off. Got clean by tapering down in May and just relapsed again with a kidney stone and surgery 8 weeks ago. My doctor finally said Suboxone was perfect for me. I didn’t take the Percocet and Lortab illegally or in high quantities, but the withdrawals from trying it cold turkey were too much to stand. Does anyone have an opinion? Also, I have taken Zoloft and Lorazepam for years now for depression and generalized Anxiety Disorder with occasional panic attacks. All of the information I have read says it is very dangerous to mix these with the Suboxone. Yet my doctor AND the pharmacist (who might I add has also been clean from Heroin for 15 years , YEAH!!) said it is fine as long as I don’t abuse the medicines and take more than I am prescribed. My tolerance apparently to the lorazepam is high enough to where the suboxone might make me a little drowsy, but that’s all. Just wanting some honest advice….Thanks, God Bless All~
Can the person and /or people who have answered negatively about the suboxone give me some contact information so I can talk to you? Just a plain email, nothing personal. I just am soooo super confused. I’ve taken it for 2 days and like you mentioned it works great except for the mood swings it causes. I have NEVER heard about this being so dangerous. Please please contact me….
