Myself and my fiancee were abusing roxy's for about 6 months. The last few weeks we were taking about 210mg - 300mg a day. We started taking suboxone to kick our terrible addiction about a week and a half ago, starting with 2mg per day and tapering down throughout a week to literally crumbs for the last two days. The reason I'm writing is because I've scoured through these boards and have yet to find a case similar to ours. Everyone posting seems to have been abusing for much longer and weening off with suboxone much longer as well.

We are currently on day three without suboxone and the combination of anxiety, depression, body aches and lethargy are enough to drive us both insane. I know every situation is different but has anyone out there been through a similar situation as far as time frames? We weren't abusing opiates for as long as most people on the board and our suboxone bout was even shorter. I'm dying to find out when all these symptoms are going to subside. Most of the posts say the symptoms last several weeks to several months. Since our usage was much less, will our withdrawl be subsequently less or will we be suffering for weeks as with most everyone else posting?

Is there anything we can do to comfort ourselves a little until the withdrawl has run it's course? We both take xanax when the anxiety get's to be too much and we take ambien for sleep and so far both have been of little help.

Any help would be greatly appreciated and good luck to everyone else going through this nightmare, this is f**king hell.

Hi kayla_need_help,
You story is very interesting. It seams to me that you will be very successful with this withdrawal. It has been a few days since this post and I am just interested in your current condition. Do you have any changes?

Best wishes.
