am scared, suboxone detox

[Casper1984]

Ive been on suboxone for 2 years, 24mg's a day, 75 8mg's pills a month. I always ran out on day 18, due to my abusen them. For goin on 6-12 months, ive been taken 30-40 mg's a day. My insurance refills on day 20, so i would buy 2 8mg's with cash to hold me over. I have stopped cold turkey, and im not goin back to the doctor, my addictive mind set will just get the 75 pills again. I have not tapered down at all. My last dose was 3 days ago, 32 mg's. The withdrawal is something worse than heroin, pain pills, or any drug. I cant even walk ten feet with out blacking out, my skin is on fire, my bones burn, what do i do, and how much longer will this last? Am i in danger?

I did some research for u and this is what I found out...

According to AAMOD, some people withdrawing from the Suboxone ingredient buprnorphine experience psychological symptoms. These symptoms may include hallucinations such as seeing, hearing and feeling things that are not there.
-also I read where mixxing klonopin and suboxone for a long time will cause hallucinations and  And audible ones as well.
I really think u need to fet to the hospital bc it's getting serious. Not only r u  messing with ur health u r also messing with ur mental health.  U can end up **** some serious long term damage. I really hope u get some help. Plz take our advice. Maybe just call a doctor (e en if it's not ur doctor) and tell them ur symptoms and how u stopped taking ur suboxone I'm sure they will tell u what to do. Keep us posted and let us know how u r feeling.

Im freakin out. Im having audible hallucinations, as well as visual ones. Lots of flashing lights, but theres no place they could come from. Im in day 6, its worse than i ever expected. I should of tapered. As for seeing things, any thoughts, ideas, reasons why? I slept this morning from 6am to 1pm.

Day 6, yesterday i said was day 4, but apparently insomnia has warped my sense of time. Anyway, your giving me hope, all of you. My w/d isnt methadone, i quit cold turkey from 32mg's of suboxone. I always thought i knew what pain was, i was wrong, i know now. I actually fell asleep at 6am, woke up at 1 pm, and had my first meal last night around 3 am. I woke up, and i felt so much better, i was so so happy, its over, i made it, awesome! NOPE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 2 hours later, a physical feeling like nothing in days past took over. Im crippled again. I am on Thomas recipe, started yesterday. My hypertension caused me to start seeing stars while walking, needless to say, my face is no longer pretty. A 3/4 inch gash above my eye. Oddly, everything else hurts so bad, i barely felt it. I took 3mg's klonopin and 0.2 mg's clonodine so far today, just waitin for them to kick in. Pray for me, im scared of tonight and tommorrow.

As I said it does not matter what your blood pressure is if you end up with an electrolyte imbalance .Do you realize with dropping the way you did off the klonopin that you also can have fatal seizures .As you have said you have a daughter you need to be here for .Go to the ER let the stabilize you .Yes it is very possible that your wds have not peeked at there worst yet either .This is only day four some people don't start wd until a week after there last dose .I truly hope for your sake they have .You are kind of playing Russian roulette with your heath and that so dangerous we don't want to see anything bad happen to you .

I understand everyones concern, but im monitoring my vitals often. Today, my bp has not passed stage 1 hypertension, as of now, im sys-118, dia-66, and my pulse is 70. Now, correct me if im wrong, thats perfect. Ive started the Thomas Recipe, been drinking plenty of gatoraid, not really any food, but i also dropped my klonopin down to just 5mg's today, and 0.2mg's of clonodine. Yes, the pain is worse, insomnia *****, my skin still burns, really, everything either burns or hurts. Im kinda surprised i made it through this far today, which leads me to believe i can take on tomorrow, unless some of yall are correct and the worst is yet to come.

I gotta agree with avisg.. If you are blacking out and your BP is that high, it wont HURT to go to the ER.  You will not be the first person to walk into a hospital in severe withdrawal. Just be totally honest with them.  F it. Right now who cares what judgments or opinions they may have.  You may need help.  Dont be afraid to ask for it.
Are you stabalized yet? Have you been able to sip some gatorade and keep it down?  Is your pressure stabalizing.. Also agree with Henry-- 20+mgs of Klonipin is too much.  Be wary of the klonipin.  A much more dangerous detox than opiates.
