I’ve been trying to get back in the MAT program but it’s like pulling teeth. They took me off a drug called Vivitrol and it made me sick from withdrawal. They were supposed to start me on a replacement drug, but it never happened. I have never felt so terrible as this, being cut off cold turkey. It’s had a major effect on me; I am an emotional wreck. I cry for no reason sometimes. And I’ve never been an emotional person. I see numerous other people suffering way worse than me for the same situation.
Another complaint is the portions and quality of food we are served. I was recently fired from my job in the kitchen because of budget cuts; I only made $10 dollars a month but we got to eat a little more. But now I am eating portions so small it’s not even enough for a kindergarten student. We are always starving and they haven’t allowed us to shop in the commissary recently.
