Well I did it!!! Sort of. I actually made it through 2-1/2 days without any subs and the week leading up was def a mother f….err but I could still sleep and as many times as the little suboxone man said "U can’t do this". Guess what I did!!! Didn’t miss any work …..lol. Even though when it was quiten time I was out the door in a hurry!!!! Anyway I’m comfortably at 4mgs and I can def get by on 2mgs!!! Strange thing about when I finally sucked it up and didn’t take any subs the longer I went the better I felt mentally. Like by 10:00a.m I started getting depressed and negative and it would peak around 1-1:30 than slow start fading and by around 3:00 I starting feeling like and adrenaline kick and that was it, over, no more depression, I could start to feel to old me trying to come back By that I mean the me before opiates!!!! Anyway that’s why I went with it for 2-1/2 days cause aside from alittle bit of sour stomach and getting hit with short waves of exhaustion I actually felt waaaayyyy better than I have in a long time!!! I know it was prob not the best way to taper down but it’s been a long time coming and I was ready!!! Good luck and Godspeed!! |
Why did you not take any for 2 1/2 days? Just to see what it felt like? Also, I always found that it didn’t help to try to look for "the old you"… because you will never be like you were before opiates. This isn’t a bad thing as at the end of the day we will know that we have a very strong desire and can do anything we set our mind too doing.
