I can’t believe it last that long, brutal, but I will never forget it. I’m glad you got out to… and I’m really looking forward to Day 60… but for now it’s one day at a time. In 7 minutes I’ll hit my 30th Day!!!

I’ve been on suboxone for about 2 months. I only take one 2mg pill every other day. Sometimes 2 days in a row. It’s working for me so far. I do wonder about the withdrawl when I finally get off of it but I’m hoping since I take such a small amount it won’t be too bad.

Mehhh… your gonna probably feel alil bit but not servere. 2mg of Suboxone is about equivalent of 80mg of morphine. Withdrawal always is gonna get worse before it gets better. you just cant give up… Less is always gonna be better. Just have to remember you and this journey of independence is worth it!

I’m on day 40 today and feel free, but it was hands down the worse withdrawal/detox I’ve ever experienced. If you can, when you can, I’d recommend telling your Doc…you would like to set up an exit plan for that and do it safely.

I had a friend who was on Subutex for 7 years. I think his taper down was over a year to finally get off.

So do you think that maybe that’s because doctors have never been addicted?
The ones at least that are not clear about how hard it is to come off of these drugs.

I have a feeling it’s 
. Many suboxone doctors in my area are cash only.
I can go on a long winded rant, but I’ll spare you all lol.

I’m 2 days shy of day 50, which is absolutely amazing. Never felt better. That thought of using has never entered my brain, the detox was painful enough. I’ve gotten to a point where all my aches and pains, are gone…I swore I had a back issue, was always stiff and hurting. I’m more limber now then ever. The most important thing I’ve learned, is Idle time is the devils best friend …Keep yourself occupied while going through the first 20-25 days. I felt like the suffering would never end, until I woke up and it was gone! You’ll be glad you did. Life is so much better when you’re chasing demons.

It took me almost 25 days to feel some relief, your so close!!! Showers are super helpful, especially for the aches and pains…I also used music that I liked to keep my brain going because of lack of energy or wanting to do anything other than lay in bed curled into a ball. The reward is so worth the pain and suffering now. By day 15 you’ll see a change, atleast the body pain will be gone and you’ll sleep a bit better. I was up to 8-12 mgs a day depending on my supply for years. I know the hell your going through. Keep your mind sharp, read books, magazines, whatever …to keep your mind occupied and off the orange demon. You can do this!!! Vitamins help too, but most of all, you coming here to read post and talk to people…is exactly what I did to get through it all. This app is amazing, along with the people on it. I relied heavily on it, especially at night time when I couldn’t sleep. The restless leg syndrome lasted almost 30 full days, so melatonin helped me get through the nights when it was unbearable. Keep up the fight, you’ll be glad you did!
