HI...... sub withdrawals are alway a hard one to call there are so many variables involved with detoxing off the stuff and no 2 people come off this drug the same we have had members jump off at 2mg ad only go thew mild withdrawals and have had members break it down to crumbs an experience horable withdrawals typically from where your at now you should no how its going.....the equation is like this.....how long you where on it....how high of dose....and what dose you jumped from x your rate of taper ...see what I mean ??kinda complicated there are thing you can do to speed thing up....look up the amino acid protacal
it is on the health pages located on the lower right of this page get the suggested supplements.......this is not a quick cure but rather building blocks to get you well faster
if you can give me some of the verables we can guesstamate how long this all should take from the info here I  cant tell you post back with that and will go from there good luck and God bless  Gnarly

WELL  now we got some info where good to go being realistic expect to stat feeling better in a month  check out the amino acids like I said if money is tight go up to walmart and pick up a 2lb can of whey protein shake mix.....the chocolate flavor is good and it has the amino acids as well as good vitamins and the protein ....all of witch we need to heal our brains after your on this stuff a wile it not a quick fix but rather building blocks that give you what you need for 15 bucks I use to drink 2 a day in the beginning now just one a day your energy will start to come back slowly just remember you dident become an addict over night nor will you heal over night each month after it gets better I was on methadone for 6 1/2 yrs and it took a good 90 days just to start to feel better sub is not as harsh but still a lot longer then just the pills.... stick with a plan put some aftercare in place and work it and you will be successful we have a lot of members that have successfully came off sub im sure they will see you post and try and help you stick around and read for a wile post often for support we all want to see you make it good luck and God bless......Gnarly

you are doing great. you have all the supplies to help make your detox a bit more comfortable. you did a sufficient taper that is good. keep up the exercising that will help to get your endrophins producing again. get some gatorade or vitamin waters, ensure.
you can get hylands restful leg at walgreens or walmart.
your mind,body,soul,spirit are going to take time to heal. try to be patient. the toxins and poisons have to be flushed out. it can take a few months to be "back to normal" press on keep fighting the good fight.keep on praying and thanking HIM. HE will see you through
i am praying for you.

Thank you for your help it means alot.I was on subs for 1 and a half yrs started on 8 mg then after 2 months 4 mg then after 4 mnths 2 mg.then after 6 months i was on 1 mg until tuesday the 5th i went cold turkey. hope that helps i have been feeling a little better i have been using st johns wort through the day and melononin and valerian root at night for sleep i also take a multi-vitamin when i wake up and i just got the b-12 strips from GNC yesterday.I have been drinking nothing but water all day and i have been excersizing mostly just jogging. But the rls is in my arms and legs and it drives me crazy also the lack of energy and motivation ***** the most...I would really like to know when i will fully be myself again energy and all how long does it take for the subs to get out of your system i know they have a long half life. Also i cant go to the doc as i really dont have any $$$$$ or insurance so any advice will help...   Thank you so much and god bless you
