This withdrawal symptoms from narcotics can last for a month or more, though they should gradually taper off in severity.

Suboxone contains Buprenorphine and Naloxone, and the Buprenorphine is a very potent narcotic, so the severity of your symptoms is not very surprising.

Along with the current symptoms, you may also start experiencing rebound pain, even if you didn't suffer from pain, before using it.

The severity of the withdrawals is why coming off of Suboxone is usually done in a very slow taper.

Are there any other questions?

Carli,

It depends on how long you have been taking Suboxone. It should take 7-10 days for the real sick parts to pass, but again it all depends. I'm on week 5, clean from 3 years of Suboxone (DO NOT STAY ON THAT LONG) it was hell for the first 3 weeks, and s***ty for the past 2, but today feeling decent except my out of control brain and sweating armpits. What ever you do do not get back on Suboxone, it can be a good drug but not for long term use. You must taper yourself very very slowly. I'm mean licking a pin sized dust pile for the last month.

If you are completely out then stay off and deal with the pain. I know it sucks but it is what it is. There are several remedies that help slightly but time and strengh are mostly it.

As far as your girlfriend, you should tell her if it's a serious relationship. Your brain will be wacked for months and if she doesn't know getting clean will be much harder. You need people to know whats up, trying to hide it makes becoming clean much harder. I understand if you don't want to and if you must say you have the flu and stomach problems (ulcur). My girlfriend knows and has been extremely helpful, but doesn't honestly understand, which causes fights, and you don't need that at a time like this.
