Any idea how bad the transition from 2mg a day cold turkey after one-two weeks will be?

also, I went into a detox last year for 5 days and they detoxed me with methadone for 5 days. I experienced NO withdrawals. HOWWWW does that work like that? if its just another opiate why dont you experience withdrawals? and why would you if you detox yourself with suboxone?]]> http://www.suboxone-doctor.com/forums/discussion/248/been-addicted-since-13-and-now-im-free-on-suboxone Sat, 22 Jan 2011 21:45:43 -0500 lorissong 248@/forums/discussions I lived in IRAN for almost four years with my Iranian husband, once I got there I was told you needed your husbands written permission to leave the country. The events I endured there are too horrific to mention (such as being sold for a drug debt/sexual favors);
The day after 911 I was put into a POW type camp for six weeks and handcuffed to another girl Faresh from Bahrain. During this time we were repeatedly raped, tortured and starved. I suffered internal injuries as well from a rape with a foreign object.
So you can imagine all the pain I returned with.
Since the age of 13 I have always been addicted to something due to being sexually abused at the age of 10 by my adoptive brother and just taking anything to forget life.
I emancipated at age 15 to get married to get out of the house.
I got addicted to Vicodin and at one time I was up to sixty pills a day (five at a time) my liver was failing and I had to go to the Mayo clinic. I was also a nurse so I had access to Demerol and Morphine. One day I took 21 Demerol shots and drove home, stopped at a gas station and fell asleep for three hours in the bathroom, with my car running. The clerk came into the bathroom to check on me...talk about a wake up call.

I then just stuck to Vicodin, I met my husband Mohammad, and he introduced me to crack, he was an undercover snitch so we had a never ending supply. I got in trouble with the law and I was getting ready to go to jail so we fled to Iran I thought spending some time there would be better than jail......God was I wrong.
Needless to say my time was anything but pleasurable. When I escaped from the camp and got home i still took oxy's vicodin you name it I took it from 2001 until 2008 when I finally decided my life had to change and then I went through a treatment center and discovered suboxone and I've been content ever since. I am on three 8 mg tabs a day not only for cravings but mostly for pain control.
I'm here to give you hope, if I can do it and keep doing it to maintain my pain control then this should give some of you hope, I hope:)

I'm on 3mg/day now and want to quit. The problem I've had with quitting in the past is insomnia, apathy, lack of motivation, and muscle pain for more than 2 weeks after I stop. I'm wondering how long I can expect until I feel "normal" after tapering down and quitting.

I also have chronic back pain, but no longer want to take narcotics to control it. God, my original post was SOOOO much better.

I got on suboxone and have remained on it for the past couple years. I was never taking more than 4mg's a day (2/2 mgs tabs a day). Starting Jan 2010 I really decided to try to stop taking suboxone and ween down. I was taking 2mg a day from roughly March through June. Over the couple weeks I basically dropped down from 2mg to 1mg a day. And over the past 5-6 days I went to a 1/2 mg for a few days, then a 1/4 mg for a few days. Yesterday was my first day without ANY suboxone. Of course I felt depressed but outside of some lower back pain and insomnia (which I've had for a couple days actually) I didn't feel like the world was ending. Today I don't feel horrible physically but am realizing this is probably going to be more a mental battle. I don't expect to just feel back to the old me instantly after shoving percs and suboxone down my throat for going on 4-5 years. But does anyone have a similar experience with suboxone (taking a relatively low dosage (2-4mg's a day for 5-6 months) and then weened down over a 2 week period)? If so, can you give me any idea as far as how long it may take before I feel better mentally (am happier, back to my old self). I know it varies with the individual. I've read some people say 60-90 days, I've heard others say they experienced no real depression and were back to normal within a week. More than anything I am just trying to maintain a positive attitude (which is tough, because my brain is CONSTANTLY thinking "get suboxone"). I feel like every second of the day y'day and today so far I have to constantly think "be positive". I know I've read working out helps, which I do regularly and always have (never even stopped that during all this crap). I know there is no magic "pill" (nor do I want one any longer). Guess I am just looking for someone to say "things WILL get back to normal". Keep fighting. And am also hoping this is not going to be months, but instead weeks (or better yet "days" although I am trying to be realistic).

My husband as well is on Suboxone and he as well is experiencing some problems. Trying not to get too graphic and detailed but he has no problem getting an erection but he has trouble in reaching orgasm. We are not sure if this may be due to his age or not as he is almost sixty, a smoker and he also has COPD and this probably pays a big part in his lack of proformance and stamina. However I am only 46 and I am not even in peri-menopause yet. I truely believe this has to be the Suboxone because I had no problem until I started it. I talked to my Doctor and he said that it didn't have sexual side effects but I think different.

I have been clinically depressed for several years. The painkillers erased the depression. Now that I have given up pain killer abuse and am on Suboxone I have the same result. My depression is gone. It is very noticable with my friends and co-workers. Should I feel bad that Suboxone has "cured" my depression without having to abuse opiates?]]> http://www.suboxone-doctor.com/forums/discussion/182/please-please-help Sun, 19 Jul 2009 16:39:24 -0400 natsie 182@/forums/discussions http://www.suboxone-doctor.com/forums/discussion/181/the-gentle-grip-of-death-that-is-poppy-tea-addiction Wed, 15 Jul 2009 20:41:50 -0400 damnmad8675 181@/forums/discussions
Has anyone else fell into the poppy pod trap and can anyone share any positive experiences involving life post-poppy addiction. I am contemplating Suboxone but know too little about it's effectiveness with addiction to the 10 active alkaloids that makes up poppy pod tea.

I want to stop now but the WD's from this stuff are so bad that I would almost rather die. BTW - I am also taking benzos and SSRI's that have been prescribed to me. I take them nightly, usually more than Im supposed to.

Humbly Yours
