The first night I took it i felt wasted for about 18 hours. I had to call in sick the next day..I took it at 10pm and at 7 am the next day I couldnt even stand up very long without having to lie back down.....It wasnt til about 5 pm that I could function.I only took less than a 1/4 pill. So the next day I took a smaller piece and I wasnt wasted but i was stuck to my couch all day again....So today i took a smaller piece and felt great all day.
The thing that gets me is that i went through this before 2 yrs ago and I took a 1/4 pill a day (Per the Dr.) for 8 days and i was clean and never really expirienced that feeling....This time around I followed the same routine  and this happens. Has anybody ever had that happen to them?

I've been on sub for about 9 months now, relapsed twice, but I've been doing really good lately.  As for the headaches they are terrible when you first start, then they will subside, but I still get them occasionally.  Usually about three tylenol and a cup of coffee helps.  I know this drug well, I'm a 7 year pain pill addict and it's a hell of a battle even with sub, but it's doable.  Feel free to ask me anything you need to know.

Yes, your fine to take a tylenol or goodies. How much Sub are you on? How long were you in withdrawels before starting the Sub?
