Good luck. I know it will get better, just take anymore. If your Dr will give you Klonapin or Xanax it can help... it does get better. I promise.

****** don't take anymore if you stopped. You will have to go through it all over.

Now I'm terrified. I have hypoactive thyroid. Was but on subs for months now a new med called zubsolv. I feel like I train has run me over and I'm soo tired with migranes. My Dr lied to me, said there would be no change with meds. HUGE change. Even pharmacy couldn't believe Dr told me no change. It's less than half dosage and I'm so sick. What's wrong with these Dr s. I'd rather be called an addict and be taking oxycontin again but wont/cant. I'm also severely depressed. Was never like this on opiates. :(

I know exactly what you mean!! I'm beyond depressed! :-( It sucks. When u take Oc's or on Sub's, you never really feel depressed. Now besides the "run over by a truck" feeling, I have to be depressed on top of it?!? I'm soo sick, my stomach is turning and my head just won't stop throbbing. How many days have u been going without meds?? I'm looking for the light at the end of the tunnel. I know I'll feel better eventually, but that just doesn't seem to be coming fast enough. I expected to feel sick...just not this sick. And I feel u on the Thyroid issue! I'm Hypo as well and they can't get meds right. Plus I have Lymes Disease and something that's Rheumatoid degenerative disease. So either way my joints hurt normally. Now without that pain meds I feel everything, just ten times worse. Want to give in so bad! But then these 6 days will be for nothing. And yes, I'm already on Xanax. And it does help at times. Thank you for your input. And again, Good Luck, keep up the fight! God bless.

Definitely not alone, and this seriously sucks!!! I can't stand feeling like this. Suboxone is literally almost impossible to get off of. I wish I had never started it!!! The Dr's don't mention this when there putting you on it. They should say, "I'm putting you on something that is virtually impossible to get off of, u'll be sick for weeks!" Maybe I would've thought twice about happily going on it!!

I had to go to the mental hospital to get detoxed of my suboxones. It had been two months and I'm still crawling or if my skin and that was worst emotional depression I've every been in. That Funk still is not debunked; ( I moved 500 miles Away from all I knew here to Nashville and I find myself looking at every gas station or stop I make to see if anyone had the look where I may score something. I really need to know what I should do. Relapses ate becoming too old. I've tried real hard these past two months.. But our feels like I'm running against the wind. .

I'm a single mom too and it's hard obviously. I'm on day 14 but did relapse a week ago :( wd's came back with a vengeance! I can't cry, I'm numb and angry. I have fibromyalgia to begin with so wow that's hard. I can say benadryl, clonidine, benzos, Imodium, and nuerontin helps alot. Good luck!

Lost and Looking, I completely agree!! I wish I could give u my email, cell or even my first name!! How can we get around this sites precautions?? I'd like to keep in contact for sure. We have a lot in common!!! How are you hanging in today?? And for u others that just joined in...trust me, I know it's no walk in the park!! I tell everyone I know that they have never been sick unless they've tried goin cold turkey off of Sub's!! It's physically, mentally and spiritually draining!! My friend said after the 2&1/2 month point..is when he finally started to feel not just better, but renewed! I'm not even a quarter of the way, so for me it seems like an endless battle. But damn it's gonna be a battle I'm gonna win!! I have to take each day as it comes. The Only thing that remotely helps is the xanax. But then I feel like, "damn...ure just switching 1 for the other!" But I need something for now, or I'm gonna give in! I'll worry about weaning off that when the time comes. How is everyone hanging in today??!! Need to hear some encouragement!!! I hate feeling alone in this. Especially when you have the duties of being a mom always weighing on your mind. And I pride myself on doing everything I can for them. And this is definitely one of um!! And girl, u've gone 2 months!!!! Do u have any clue what an amazing accomplishment that is?!?! Don't go back and make it all have been for nothing!! Ure now at the home stretch! My boy said just a little further and ure gonna feel a huge difference!!! Good Luck to all & God bless!! P.s. Lost and Looking, if u figure out a way we can get around having to go through the site...I'd love to know your name and vice versa! :-) U've been an amazing support through all this!!! Thank you again!!!

Hi MOMCOLDTURKEY, I'm actually doing horrible. There's something wrong with my kidneys from when they switched my medicine. I went to the doctor and he gave me Aleve and a steroid. I'm in excruciating pain and there is nothing that I can do. I had blood in my urine about a week ago and I thought it was my period but its not. My doctor doesn't even want to listen to me he thinks its muscular pain. It's not. Sorry I can't make you feel any better today because I am in pain and crying. I don't know what to do I think I'm just going to have to go to the hospital. I stopped taking that other medicine too so I'm going through withdrawal. I think it has something to do with it. Other med is like since. I figured if I'm going to go to the hospital and have to get some sort of procedure I might as well not be in pain for the procedure. I am taking my klonapin. It's the only thing holding me down.

Stay strong brother,I been on this crap for 2-3months now,the Dr. Cut my dose and I been one step ahead of him. I'm down to a strip a day. I'm prescribed 1 1/2 ,I haven't had any for 24 hrs now and I feel fine. I'm wondering if it's going to hit me too. I've just been pray'n that I want to be clean from all this stuff. With perseverance and a little help from the Lord I think will be fine you just have to have the desire to be free from all of it and the rest of it will come to pass.

LostAndLooking68, I'm soo sorry that I wasn't able to get back to you sooner!! I feel so bad I wish there was Something I could do to help u feel better!! But I've been doing horrible too!! And it's definitely from stopping the meds!! It can't be a coincidence that I have blood in my urine too...and they can't give me 1 reason as to why I'm in such pain and y my organs aren't functioning properly. I swear, as soon as they know u once were an "addict" or know about Suboxone, they treat u completely different!! I have to go back bc my body has filled up with 40lbs of water weight...they said Edema +4...I woke up looking like a blimp and it hurts soo bad to move. But they said if Lasix won't get the water out I could seizure. I feel ure pain soo much!!! I wish u had my cell number, so u could text me whenever, & I wouldn't miss a message...like I did this week!! Gotta figure out a way! We're too much in the same boat&going through the exact same thing. I cant believe I've been going through it cold turkey for weeks now and still feel horrible!! It's a nightmare! &Brian I hate to burst your bubble...but the 1st couple of days, u feel not that bad at all...once I hit day 5, that's when I was ready to have someone hit me over the head to get rid of the extreme sickness. But Lost and Looking 68..I'm here whenever you need to talk!!! Please get a second opinion from a different doctor!! Let me know how it goes. Much Luck, Love, & God Bless!!! Hang in there!!!

Thank You Savannah, I am going through something similar, I was in a bad accident the Dr put me on roxicodone for 2 years, I wanted to get off of that so he put me on methadone, I found it very difficult taking methadone I went to another doctor, put me on suboxone 2 years ago. I tried talking to my doctor months ago on how to get off the 8 milligram strips ofsuboxin they told me to take it for a week then don't take it for 2 days take it for a week don't take it for 2 days lower the dose it didn't work for me. I finally wean myself down to less than 2 milligrams twice a day 4 days ago I started cold turkey and I'm having a little bit of a hard time I have epilepsy and I do have dilantin which helps me with the notion of having a seizure, but I hope in 14 days everything settles down and I can become a normal person again. Your article made the most sense I do recommend to anybody who's trying to get off of Suboxone please do it through a doctor god bless all of you and please pray for me

I am on day two of being off Suboxone I wean myself down to almost a tiny little flake from 2 mg tabs. I started off taking 24 mg a day. So you can imagine it's been a very very long battle. But lately I feel like my restless leg syndrome has gotten so much worse that I can't sleep at all. The saddest thing is that I'm a mom and I have to take my young daughter to school. I feel like Iwant to help because I don't want to go back. So I was wondering if you would give me the name of your doctor? Or do you think that I should keep going the way i am.?

To anybody out there, subs are the BEST way to get off opiates. I was a long time addict with oxy and hydro around 100+mg a day. I kicked it with about half a strip at a time. Twice a day. Never felt better. Performing better at work. Friends and family are closer than ever. And I don't hate myself. God that's the best part is that I love myself now... Good luck everyone God bless.
