Updated

hey guys, i have been taking dilaudid for about 5 months 4,8mg a day then switched to heroin for 1 month 2 bags a day,now my friend gave me 4,8mg suboxones and told me it would help me get off h for good, i waited 24 hours took half a subox and i must say it works for wd's but when i run out witch i estimate will be in 2,3 days will i just suffer again;like where i left off or will the h be out of my system and the wd's light enough to withstand, please help, im not a newbee to drug abuse had bad h habits in the past and know the nature of the beast, just want this stuff out of my life so i can go back to work and live again, i need the truth or as close as i can get, can i beat it like this or am i wasting my time,maybe i can get one or two more subs from my freind

I jumped off 100mls of done and a year later was still getting hold of some. Then off the street a M8 gave me 7 2.5mg Suboxone strips. I did it properly. Now it's day 8. What do I expect...withdrawal?

Hey all. I've read most of the posts about this thread. Seems there's a lot of pill heads out there... Not saying its bad or whatever just not familiar with them. They don't do it for me. I boot heroin, and have been for about six months, and smoked it for about six months previous to that. My most favorite thing to do is pour out 10 to 12 bags of h into my spoon, 80 units of water, cook, draw, and shoot. The rush is intense, and lasts for hours. Cool right? Sounds like fun to some of you? No! This s*** has ruined my f***ing life. I don't have to get into detail, I'm sure if your here reading these posts this late at night than it's ruined your life in some way or another. Well any way I'm proud to say that enough is enough and I f***ing quit this s***. 10 days and going strong! Trust me it's no cake walk, even with suboxone. But let me tell you that suboxone is your friend and your only friend. First off it takes a lot of will power and saying no to yourself a lot. Then you gotta get real. Use your suboxone wisely, make a plan with it, spread it out and ween off. Take it for less than 2 weeks. To me it's not meant to make you feel fine and dandy. Remember narcotics are some serious s***. And quitting should be taken very seriously. Only like 30% of people can quit and stay clean. You/me are addicts and always will be. And know that six months down the road you/me will probably still want to use. But where will that get us? Nowhere. Absolutely nowhere. Anyways what I'm getting at is use the suboxone and be happy that you got it, cause it does make the process easier. And helps with most/all withdrawl symptoms, the physical ones anyways. The subs will do there job, you have to do yours, and that is fight the devil in the back of your head that's telling you to feel high. Fight him hard. The only way to get better and turn your s*** around is not do any. Get your life back. You can do it. Here's a site that helped me. Check it out. howtoquitheroin.com and most importantly if you go on the site and click on "quit with suboxone" and scroll to the bottom they have layed out suboxone dosage charts. These are very helpful and the site really is too. Read it. Get inspired. Quit. Get your life back. This post is off track I know but if I reached out and touched somebody, even one person than thank god. Post how it's going, and hang in there, you can do it. Believe.

I've been taking subs for 3 days, I just did a shot of h tonight,will I be able to continue taking subs in the morning?

You should wait at least 24 hours after your last dose of h. Because if you have h in your system and take subs you will fell worse w/d than any other w/d from h. So wait till you feel w/d before you continue sub. Good luck my friend. I've been there and done that a few times. If you want to know more hit me up.

This post really kicked my ass into gear, it really is true though I am only 5 days clean I am so scared of relapse. Heroin is the devil and it does whisper in the back of your head and tries to make you need it with everything you got but when you want to quit, you have to hang out with the right people. Your sober friends and your real friends. Fill up your time; go back to school, make sure you are saying no every second, every minute, and every hour of the day, it is your choice. Nobody ever said this would be easy but when you have people you can talk to and you have things to occupy your mind instead of the heroin, you will feel normal again, you will feel happy again, you will laugh again. You will feel alive and you will be such a stronger person from this.

So for a few months I would take suboxone in between drug binges or weekends using. I would always take the lowest amount of sub possible, and for the last 2 weeks was down to .25mg a day, and not even every day. I could go 24 hours without dosing. I would feel s***ty, but I could tough it out. So I would probably go about a week or 2 on the sub and then use about 10 bags of Heroin and then go right back on the sub after 24 hours. I used heroin for about 2 years or so and never did a real detox without some sub. So for the past 2 weeks I took .25mg of sub and used heroin for 2 days in a row, then 7 days later I used again, but only like 5 bags and I shot it this time (I'm usually a sniffer). I was out of suboxone the night before I used the heroin, about 24 hours before, I always wait 24 hours in between the 2. The day after I shot the 5 bags I slept all day long, like for 20 hours and then woke up at the 30 hour mark of not having had anything, and was in minor withdrawal. I had yearly eyes, runny nose, swallowing some mucus, back pain, gi issues, and felt like I had spiders crawling under the skin on my arms. So now it is day 5 and I am not feeling much better. Maybe a tiny bit better, but still have pain in my back and the creepy crawly arms and cramps stomach. I haven't been able to sleep without tossing and turning and sweating. My question is...wtf am I detoxing from? The heroin? Or the suboxone? Could it be both? I'm just hoping to get an answer so I can know when there is a light at the end of this tunnel.

Just read your post mate. Glad to hear you managed to get youurself pulled out of that life. I have been taking h (smoking) for years. I'm down to one tenner bag a day. I just smoked my last bag. I have 5 8mg suboxone which I am going to use going to take a couple of 8s then going to taper right down. My mate just managed to do it like that and has been clean 2 weeks. I have been on suboxone before so I know how to use them. I did have the option of going on a prescription but couldn't habdle having to go get my prescription once a week and then have the chemist everyday it just makes me feel as if I'm still in the life so I got 5 tabs out the chemist (in my pocket). My frame of mind is fine I just don't want to take drugs any longer. I just hope doing it this way using the subs over a short period of time works and I won't get any wds. I dnt expect no wds I can handle a little but if this works I just keep thinking I will have my life back without being handcuffed to a chemist and still taking some form of drug which I would still have to come off if I was taking them longterm. Cheers for your post brother. Its gave me even more resolve. Glasgowguy

I'm too pretty for this. I got 3 8mg sub strips last night and I'm scared. So scared. Idk wtf I'm doing with life anymore.. I just want to b normal. My whole day consists of my next high.. It's sad. I'm losing everything.. Financially I'm able to keep this up, but damn who would want this?? I'm so ready to just be normal again

Suboxone isn't an opiate, its an opiate blocker, its tricks your opiate receptors into thinkin its got what it needs when its a completely different drug

i am in the suboxone program taking subs for ove 5 yes. i advise u to take a wole sub for the first day the next day a half a.m and half p.m and the next day the same thing. after that just stop taking them . u may feel sick how ever u will be so much further away from your sickness since day one . and deal with it. buy some boost shakes drink one a day. it t is very health for u and bananas are also read good for u. maybe your first day see if u can get a dr. to give u a valium for 3 days . if u take subs longer that 3 days ur first day being off them will be greatly sicker if u take subs longer than 3 days good luck to u
