I'm in suboxone withdraw hell! How long will this last?

[melvwp]

How long is suboxone withdraw?? I was on about 1mg daily for the past 4 months. I had inititally been on 8mg strips 4 times daily. This drug is a joke!! I'm the same as I was when I was withdrawing from percocet!

I tapered down to .25 or less and still had wds. Not severe but unpleasant nonetheless. HOt baths and drinking lots of water helped me. I also forced myself to walk and felt better, seemed to help with a lot of the symptoms. I took Tylenol for the aches. Im still having sweats/chills but doing better then I was the first few days. (I just jumped last week) you know what the best thing is?? I don't feel that physical "hold" of opiates now. RLS would wake me out of my sleep to let me know it was time to take my dose when i got really low on the taper. Now I can feel that this is just the after effects of being on sub but no physical hold. It's a damn good feeling and it feels like a big weights been lifted. Keep doing, it will get better!!

hi and no your worst off then from the pecacet sub withdrawals are finicky some people jump at 2 mg with little or know side effects others go down to crumbs and go threw 2 weeks of hell this is the one reason I hate this drug you never know how your going to come off it it may be mild it may be like a bear in ether case if your having a hard withdrawal from this stuff 2 weeks is usually about it but the sad factor is 2 weeks is usually about it you got 2 weeks of this crap to go threw sorry to be the berrer of bad news but I have been on thes forum over 2 yrs and that seam to be the pattern for sub hot soaks will help take advil for the aches and pains plenty of gatoraid and force fluids exersize is critical keep posting for support we all want to see you get well good luck and God bless.....Gnarly
