Urgent Suboxone Question

Updated

Hi, I was on suboxone for 3 years, then I tapered pretty quickly and was off of suboxone 8 mg for 10 days. The withdrawals were really bad, went to ER and they had to push 2 bags of fluid. I wasn't eating or drinking. Well a lot of people know how it is. I hadn't slept for 8 days when I went in. They finally inj. my buttocks with something to make me sleep. Went home and slept finally for 8-10 hours but the next day and night was horrible again. I gave in and went back to my suboxone doctor and he put me back on suboxone. He wanted to taper me much slower this time. Well, I've only taken 2 and 1/4 of the films he gave me within a span of 2-3 days and then I flushed the rest. I felt so depressed going back on the suboxone. So now it's been almost 48 hours since I took the 1/4 of the suboxone. My question is: Will I have real bad withdrawals from taking those 2 1/4 films now? This is what scares me. I had been 10 days clean off suboxone and then I screwed it up and took it again. I just feel like such a F*** up. Please advise. I feel ok. Diarrhea is back and I have a slight headache. I'm just waiting for my other shoe to drop.

Those can be normal withdrawal effects, if someone stops taking it too fast, according to NIH data. How are you feeling, now? Has there been any change?

And yes, you may still experience some more withdrawal effects. Are you on any other medications?

Disabled, have you discussed the issue with your doctor? What types of symptoms are you experiencing?
