Hey JDI ! Glad you had a good vacation. Moms are great … good on ya !
What I’ve learned during my short time with this process and talking to others in my various groups and forums is to be patient and forgiving of ourselves and the journey toward "normal". I’m took three days off of .125 and had a bad day 4 so …. i took another .06. That sounds like nothing and it really is like around 2 mg of hydro, but trust me this suboxone is powerful and I was better in an hour.
Im on week 3 since hospital induction and have not done a total of 30 mg’s…. yet these are tough to shake even at my small dosage. Nevertheless the last three weeks have been very sober and focused ….. they make ya feel abnormally normal for sure. Be patient my friend for I assume you have a ways to rid yourself but like my Dr said …. .25-.5 is like jumping from a curb and twisting an ankle…NBD!
You were very instrumental in my actions and I will never forget ya ….. ever !
There for you now.
I’m still not 7 days …. but no longer afraid of em !
FYI … I have not taken the Gabapenin but some say it works…. my suggestion is clonidine for days and I use Ambian at night 10 mg’s …. sleep like a baby. Some suggest Tramadol for really rough spots but Dr’s don’t like to prescibe for us folk.
keep me posted … keep fighting
