    Thank you for this video! I think it is a response to a kind call that you fielded on Feb 23rd for about 10 minutes, to me, so I could ask you, a person with *extensive* experience using buprenorphine (active ingredient in suboxone / subutex) asking why buprenorphine has such profound anti-depression / anti-anxiety effects on me. Even at low dosages (4mg, 2mg.. 1mg a bit less so) it brings such a profound calm to my mind and I wanted to understand why. I’m not a recovering addict of any kind, just a person struggling with .. well.. their own brain, I guess you’d say. I do have a therapist, I do practice CBT, but.. man, this med is more effective than almost anything I’ve been prescribed to date. I wanted to understand why.

    p.s. I did donate $50 to St. Judes and I have the receipt.. appreciate all your hard work and solid info you’re putting out there!
