The more comments I read about this stuff, the worse it looks... "I'm a father of 3 who is currently going through a divorce because of tia. I lost everything and currently staying at a friend's house and not with my family and wife of almost 18 years. I blew through all of our money and it took this to happen for me to get off. I've been on suboxone for 8 days now and tia free for 8 days. If he truly wants to get off tia, he will have to get off of everything and take his subutex for the reason it is prescribed. Tia is the devil. I started taking it when I quit drinking and fell in live with the way it made me feel. I've spent thousands of dollars on it the last couple years."

That second post is absolutely brutal. Holy hell. I’m someone with a very addictive personality and I can easily see myself in this situation if I don’t avoid these substances. So seeing someone struggling in this way, just how I would be if I took a wrong turn in life, is heartbreaking.

Yeah, every reputable nootropics community recommends avoiding tianeptine for a reason. It's right up there with phenazepam in the "this should probably be illegal" category.
