Hey there! Congrats on your progress! I am on day 3 of no subs. Last dose was at noon on Thursday and I was down to .5 every other day
As of now I am doing fine physically! It’s the mental part that gets me! Just like you I am waiting for the worst! I truly think that BOTH of us will be fine. I have to believe that or I won’t do it! This is my second time coming off subs….and about my billionth time coming off opiates in general lol
The way I see it…..I am LUCKY right now. If you’ve never been in detox you can still imagine
I am in my own home and my own bed. I am not surrounded by strangers sharing a toilet in detox! I’m not on a "smoke break schedule" where I haveto smoke inside of a cage listening to people glorify their drug use…..
I can eat what I want when I want!
I can take my clonidine and ibuprofen when I want!
I don’t have to get out of bed for group!!!!!
I could go on for days….lol
I think the leg pain and restlessness and insomnia is probably going to be the worst of it aside from anxiety. Grab some clonidine if you can…if not then I would just recommend whatever sleep aid works best for you
You’re doing great! Lets do thisssssss!!!!
