Suboxone/morphine Addict 300mgs A Day (Page 2)
(Newest replies first)

Hey I have a question and some info. I am getting ready to come off of 300 mgs of morphine. Started with vics, soon moved to 80mg of oxys, then to 100mg morphine tabs 3 times a day. I got into a suboxone clinic very expensive. I only pay 120.00 dollars for my morphine and now I have to go and pay 935.00 dollars for the first month without medication? I AM SCARED AND VERY NERVOUS TO START THIS...Any advice? And does anyone get there meds online? Figured if you can get narcotics why not the stuff to cure it? I have looked but I think it might be 2 new. Yes I will have a script for it in 8 days....HELP?

The major problem that most people have using Methadone is that many people never completely get off of it and end up taking a lifetime maintenance dose.

Suboxone has enable more people to be completely drug free, after treatment.

This does vary from person to person, though, so you will hear stories from both sides from people who have had success and problems.

If anyone else has anymore information or experience in this area, please post!

Hey Phn, yea everyone is different and I never realized you could take home methadone regardless of time spent. Maybe I didn't research it enough to base a good opinion on it. I have friends that are on it and have been clean for years but I never asked them the details. That sucks that suboxone made you sick but methadone is probably the better choice for most people being a full opioid agonist. The biggest thing that steered me away was the length that I thought I would be using methadone. I wasnt sure if I went on it that I would be able to get off, but thats just me. I wonder how Taylor is doing on her second day of dosing, if she decided to go through with it.

Hi Ryan
I am glad that suboxone is working for you. I just wanted to let you know though that when you first get on a methadone clinic you do have to go everyday, but when you have been there for 90 days, you get a take home, then another90 days, another take home until you get a whole weeks worth. I live in a city where the most take homes yoy can get is 14, but some states you can get up to 30 day take homes, of course you have to be clean from all medications umless you have a prescription..But hey, if suboxone works, whats that old saying, if it ain't broke, don't fix it...Suboxone just made me too sick, and I did hang in there for 3 weeks...I guess we are all different..

hey taylor, i was on the second day of my withdrawal when i took my first dose. i felt pretty sick but about 2 hours after the little orange pill dissolved i felt completely renewed. I'm taking three eight milligram pills a day so 24 milligrams daily total. as long as youre in withdrawal the suboxone will help. being completely honest you have nothing to be scared of and yes they do give me a buzz even with a very high tolerance to opiates. i feel the best after my first dose every morning and pretty much stay the same all day, absolutely no cravings and 0 withdrawal symptoms. sorry for calling you a man, i guess it was force of habit lol. maybe i was a little over the top with your price issue, the price of sobriety and a healthy mind means nothing in the long run. compared to our addictions and how much money we spent it is well worth it. this monday will be my fourth script of suboxone and i still get a buzz every morning. dont get me wrong its nothing like the way we're used to feeling but its more than enough to get me through the day. i was scared the first time i took it and also a little anxious. its normal but once you take it your fears will melt away along with your addiction. im really glad i made you feel better and i hope by writing this youll feel even more at ease. please let me know how you feel a few hours after taking your suboxone dose. ive read a few articles about people feeling terrible or even worse on suboxone but thats barely a percentage of a fraction of the ones ive read where people feel so much better. i dont take this drug to get high but if i didnt have effect that suboxone gives me id probably be nodding off on a few 80s writing this right now. i didnt think methadone was for me, im not sure how all the other clinics go about their dosing but the one in my town requires you to show up every morning at the earliest hours possible to pretty much give you your lifeline. i decided i didnt want to be hand fed my drug like a farm animal so i chose the more costly route that youre about to. the only way youre going to know if it will work is if you take it and judge for yourself. personally it makes me feel normal and very very productive. after years of feeling like i was going to be an addict the rest of my life i finally see i can beat it. what your doc said about extended release tabs could be the truth. just make sure all the drug is completely out of your system before you take the subs or youll get precipitated withdrawals and theyll be worse than ever before. sorry if this is a little long winded i just really want you to know that these things have helped me and theyll help you too. also let me describe the kind of buzz i get. at first i feel a little dizzy then it goes away and slowly i start to feel euphoric. it isnt strong but its definitely noticeable. there is no coming down at all as long as you dose when youre suppose to or when it starts to lighten up a little. before i get off here ill also add that when im in bed i start to nod off pretty quickly and fall asleep really quick. well, i hope i cheered you up a little, please write back to let me know how your first dose goes.

-Ryan

Hey it is me well the withdrwls have barely started and already I have gone over 24 hours without the morphine? I thought it would have already started by now. The doctor told me 48 hours because of the extended release pills I was on...I was just being cautious I guess...I really want this to work.thanks for you feedback..Have done the methadone route and I still craved other opiates otherwise it works great...well this may be the last time that I write probably wont feel very good soon...I will let you all know how the suboxone goes on monday. ok

You are right, and now a days, you don't even know if a person is getting the right medication..I have heard people are getting suger in a pill press..I admit I used to use the online Pharmacies, but I never ordered anything unless it had been prescribed for me in the past and I only used US OP's. Most of them are gone...

Taylor, Why are you having to be in withdrawls for over 68 hours to get on suboxone? I was on suboxone for my addiction when it was still in trials, and I had to be 24 hours without taking anything (opiates) I think even if you are on methadone they tell you to have 36 hours w/o any opiates.. I hope the suboxone works for you, unfortunatly I got very sick on it. I tried to hang for 3 weeks, but I just couldnt do it,so I am on methadone. Don't get me wrong, I am happy that methadone works for me. I am just happy you are going the suboxone way before you try anything else...Its funny people think methadone makes a person loaded, when I was on the suboxone, I felt loaded all of the time, but the methadone makes me just feel normal. A few methadone clinics are starting to use suboxne, you may want to call a clinic where you live to see if they offer it. it may be a bit cheaper. And don't buy anything on the inernet. Things have changed, Most places are illegal and or ripp offs. And I know that many times the packages get seized, and if that happens you are out of luck because none of them take credit cards anymore, so you have to send cash via WU..Stick with a real doctor. Keep us posted, ok??

Hey this is taylor just wanted you to know that your reply made me feel great...I am very scared and yes my addiction is heavy I have been snorting 100mg morphine tabs daily for over a year now...I am curious I go in on monday for my first suboxone treatment> How long did you stay in withdrawals before you took your first suboxone? I will be exactly 68 hours cold turkey is that enough time to come off of extended release morphine? What happened with you? Just want some info I an very scared. The money sucks but I am a tiny town with not alot of options so I am thinking the thousands I alredy spent are now going to my sobriety and I am thinking from what you wrote it is worth it! You really get a buzz? Thought this was going to suck...How many do you take a day? And mgS? Buy the way I am not a man, but a chick...thanks for your reply hope to hear more from you ryan....

Suboxone will not be easy to find from an online pharmacy, it is very closely regulated and legally can only be used under the supervision of a doctor who is specially trained in its use.
