I tried several ways to overcome and kick this addiction, while my life and my relationship with family and career was quickly going down the drain.


Admitting that I had a problem and my life now out of my control I wanted my life back and to be free of this addiction, so I turned to Methadone treatment. While I was in methadone treatment I felt like I was chained to a clinic (which I was) and although I wasn’t doing illegal things to treat

My life consisted of making sure I had the money to go to the clinic and that I could get there “EVERY DAY” during the 3 hours they were open! Taking a vacation or going out of town for the weekend was not possible because I was chained to the clinic.


My life was no longer “My Life” it was so controlled that I lived everyday for my trip the clinic and my career in the Music Industry was just a memory.


In late 2004 I had heard about Suboxone (Buprenorphine) through other

In Jan. 2005 I found a Doctor who had just started a Suboxone treatment program. I was the 2nd patient to join. I was so excited about this possible “New” treatment available, and the hope of maybe getting back control of my life and being free of Methadone or having to go to a Methadone clinic everyday sounded too good to be true!


January 2005 I started the Suboxone (Buprenorphine) Treatment. After going 3 days without methadone I was sick and wanted my methadone back.

still sick and wanting my methadone back. On the second day before I took my second dose of Buprenorphine I had convinced myself I needed to stay on methadone (I was still not feeling well) but I hung in there.
After that 3rd day on Suboxone, methadone never entered my mind, except remembering all the time I had lost while in methadone treatment (5 years).

After finishing what was to be a 10 song CD and reflecting on how my life had changed in such a short time for me (thanks to Buprenorphine) I went back in the studio and recorded a song, “First Hand” and I have committed 100% of this song to drug rehabilitation programs.

I am and will be forever grateful for Suboxone (Buprenorphine).
