| Dee your doing a amazing job. And you know what. Want to be free is right. I think (not a fact) that since your allready withdrawing at that dose you are better off just continuing on! If you need to use some Imodium to help with the runs. It works great. Sometimes i would take up to 12 to 20mgs of lopermide to help. Yes it seems like a lot. But subs are just as bad at constipating you. So i swear by it. It helps! But only use it when you feel you need to! Absolutely get clondine since it helps keep your body from going hot/cold and will help with sleep if need be. If possible get a small amount of benzos to help with the anxiety which i know is a bad symptom for me. Klonopin is what i recommend since it lasts a long time. But ativan, xanax, or even valium are all good choices. But use them only for a few days. That’s if you aren’t against the idea of using benzos. Some say seroquel is bad for opiate withdraw. But i swear seroquel helps me immensely for sleep. Very low dosages though. Like 25-50mgs. Also i know this detox place that offers at the end of suboxone tapers tramadol 50mgs to be used for 7 days. Starting at 200mg’s and working your way down gradually. But at the very least get clondine!
I really hope to see you get through this as it empowers me to keep distancing myself away from this drug as best as i can! And once you feel better. You can maybe cheer me on when i get to where your at! Good job on the damage control of tapering to the point where you are now! It has to get bad before it gets better. Maybe try a flush kit to help your body out! Keep pushing! It will be over before you know it! |
Hey Will, really appreciate your post. I am off to my GP in two hrs and going to write some of this stuff down. Hopefully the doctor helps me and does not tell me to go back to the drug service because they won’t give me anything but zopiclone. I am already feeling really anxious and emotional so will def ask for something for that. Will write down what you’ve wrote and speak to the doctor. I will def take some help to try and ease some of these symptoms. I am not taking any more suboxone as you’re right..what’s the point when i’m already in withdrawal. Just got to try and get some meds to help today and ride this rollercoaster till it lets me get off!!
I know what you mean by these threads empowering you..if I can help you then that also helps me 
This is such a great place for all of us coming off suboxone. I just keep reading all the threads and it gives me strength.
Once again thanks for your helpful post. I will update later after i’ve seen my GP. Fingers crossed he helps me.
