47 Hours off Suboxone

[gottilee]

I am at 47 hours clean from suboxone. I used suboxone for 2 weeks this time. My question is will it hget worse or better over the next day or two. I have read and heard the 36 hour point is where it gets bad but I dont feel worse than day 1. I did a suboxone wd in November but it was only for 6 days of suboxone. Any info would help. I slept good last night at 30 hours of course with help of ativan. which has been a big help aloing with 5http. Thanks for any input

I was on sub for only two weeks. I had just read horror stoies about getting off after long term sub use,I started at 16mg then wen down quickly to 4 mg.   I was taking about 4mg a day untill Wed this week. Wed at 6:30 was my last dose. So its been almost 87 hours now. Slept good again going to try and cut out the atvian today except for at night to seep. Good luck to you how long you been on suboxone.

Way to go!!! Not only did you jump successfully from the sub and without too much discomfort but you are also very wise in initiating a recovery plan right away. I'd say your set for success!!

I'm jumping on Tuesday from sub. I take less then a quarter sub a day so I'm hoping I won't get hit with really bad wds. Here's to hoping..,

Do you have any advice for me in stopping the sub? You really didn't get any wd? That's great! How long and how far down did you taper if I may ask?

Well its not been 75 hours without sub or perc and still feeling all right. I have read at this point all the subs should be out of my body but I didnt feel anyworse. I went to na meeting at noon time and plan to keep going there. I am hoping tomorrow is a lot better than today, so I cut out taking the ativan. Thanks for listenening

Still hanging on no subs or percs. Its been  65 hours now. Withdrawals still pretty mild getting ready for first completely clean na meeting at noon.

[gottilee]

Yeah I started NA which I am going to tomorrow at noon with god willing 66 hours in. I am at almost 50 hours now detox if very mild hopefully doesnt get worse we will see at the 72 hour point when all the sub has supposedly lefy my system.

I feel bad that you keep going through this and I hope it ends for you. Have you considered getting some outside support? Something is causing you to relapse and if you learn what your triggers are you may be able to avoid them. Just a thought....

I dont mean to honestly. I was prescribed by a doctor in October for help with percocets about 150-180mg daiey. Dr wanted me to stay on lon term at 24 mg a day but I went against advice after reading horror stories of long term sub use. I tapered quick and got off didnt feel much then, Then I relapsed bad at beginning of Dec went for 2 weeks strong taking 180mgs of perc a day. I had some sub left from script so I started again. This time for 2 weeks then took my last one on Wed at 6:30PM. I was expecting more wds and did have crawly skin hot flashes irriatiblility but wasnt that bad. I actually went for a full day of work. Of course I am still very anxious and not feeling great but thought it would be worse, maybe it will after 72 hours

If you don't feel it by now it probably won't get any worse. But why do you keep going on and off of Suboxone?
