Alright how to begin this... I started suboxone knowing that it was very powerful, kicking a oxy habit looking for relief. I took 2mg and was floored at how good I felt. Worst mistake of my life for sure. The addict in me was like hey let's do this again. Anyway long story short after 4 months dabbling daily I felt bogged down and was like I want off this. My chase went to a quarter to a half after 2 months. I searched online the best ways and found 90 day tapers and realized quickly that was not going to be possible.
Long story short I cut my 8mg piece into 4 thinking like I was going to taper it. NO by the end of that night I took it all. Again that addict in me was screaming. That night I said enough is enough I'm done with this stuff! Here I am 8 days later and I promise you I'll never touch it again!
Its the worst but that's good for me because any easy ride will make me come back. I'm glad I'm in hell because it reminds me NEVER to touch this drug again!
My story day 1 I was irritated and hot all day yawning and tired. Day 2 miserable hot flashes and cold bone chilling cold. Tried to drink water Gatorade but I'd freeze if I did. Went to sleep was up every hour so so hot just a sweaty disgusting mess. Cravings were bad. Day 3 chilled to the bone all day goosebumps etc. No sleep at night I am burning up and sweating profusely. Day 4 felt better mild chills all day thought I'm getting out of the woods then night came sweats no sleep up every hr. Absolutley maddening. Day 5 felt blah probably the sleep issue chills and the night same ad 2 3 and 4 may have got 3 solid hours b4 I started pouring sweat and being so overheated. Day 6 so miserable and beaten down the chills are no longer really an issue my problem is the night sweats and lack of sleep. Day 7 still having night sweats and burning up but never a fever I checked like day 3 and 4. But I left the house just exhausted from the terrible nights. I am on day 8 feeling pretty okay this morning but the night I dread I'm hoping bc I haven't had the stomach issue aka diarrhea that clearly the night sweats are how my body is eliminating this stuff idk. What I do know is I am never going back. No meds other than ibuprofen! This struggle is very real but I will come out on top!
My advice to anyone out there dont touch it and if you have get off you have the willpower the withdrawal will make you not want to go back. I still have some in the house but I refuse to touch it. I am not starting this withdrawal process again!
