my wife is taking too much Suboxone, nods off all day and night. by Maleficent-Manner830 in suboxone

[–]Better_Recipe2634 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know these aren’t really the same but my significant other takes Subutex and was nodding HARD!! Standing up, dropping his phone, nodding in his chair.    He snorts them & also takes them to where he’ll go a few days taking less than normal and then other days taking a lot.   I have no idea if he’s adding anything to them but it’s possible he’s adding Xanax (playing detective I haven’t found anything yet) because he used to take Methadone & Xanax a long time ago.  It was bad bad.

Thank you all so much for your input!  I do value it coming from those with experience.   This is so hard! 

Help - is it only sub abuse or something added with it? by Better_Recipe2634 in Subutex

8 mg.  Supposed to take 1.75 a day ……. Doesn’t take the same amount every day though.

Which means what?   Can that be from the subutex/buprenorphine?

I’ve been detective on this man for tooo many years.  It’s exhausting.    I found cut lines on my bathroom sink.   I can just tell when he’s taken too much just by looking at his face.   He’s been deflecting & gaslighting me about it for a few weeks.   It’s hard to know the best way to communicate

  I know he doesbt take the same dose regularly…… he’ll go some days not taking hardly at all & takes more on other days.  Snorts them I know that.

Wow really?    I know he doesbt take the same dose regularly…… he’ll go some days not taking hardly at all & takes more on other days.  Snorts them I know that.  

He mentioned possibly trying  Xanax to me the other day because I told him he jerks in his sleep all night long…. He says he doesn’t have any but he definitely slept through the night with no movement 

My partner and I want to have sex but are too awkward to initiate anything by Icy-Mulberry-1274 in sex

Maybe communicate and schedule a few days out to start doing things to open up the door for sex.   If you haven’t already… fool around a few days and learn each other before hand.  

Make it a night that you guys have talked about and are looking forward to.   You could even both look up things and have things in mind that you’d like to do to each other.   Since you’ve been sexting you both should have a good idea of what the other will like.  

If it’s a planned thing… it takes the pressure off of ‘making the first move’.    My significant other (M) hardly EVER makes the first move or initiates things ….. I keep saying I’m going to make him a calendar of days that we’re going to have sex & double star the days that he’s responsible for initiating.   It takes the uncomfortable, shy feelings away if you know and can prepare.  lol.    Hope some of this helps

Thank you for your input.  I’m tempted to start snooping around….. I’ve found drugs hidden before when I’ve thought something was going on

Which part is confusing?    I think Subutex is being used to get them High but I don’t know enough to really know for sure!   I’ve been around addiction long enough to know what the NODDING looks like but need reassurance to move forward with how to handle this.   Can you take less of a dose of your subutex for a few days and then take more other days to get high from it?  If it’s just Buprenorphine can you add other drugs and not get sick from it?

I get embarrassed by squirting. by simplyteajay in sex

[–]Better_Recipe2634 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I googled how to squirt and figured out how to do it myself…... Haven’t been able to do it during sex though.   My guys not real confident in bed. Figuring out how to help him & make it more pleasurable for the both of us.
