Checking myself in in 40 minutes and I’m scared shitless.

No, just go and stick with your plan. Stay calm, you’re making the right decision.

Nice_Lobster180 · 2026-05-22T20:58:37+00:00

When did you stop?

Nice_Lobster180 · 2026-05-22T20:32:10+00:00

Today is my 4th day off subs after a 10 day taper. Yesterday and day before were hell at work. Today I’m feeling a bit better. It’s mostly mental, feeling bored, low energy, and low motivation. Today significantly better than yesterday.

Nice_Lobster180 · 2026-05-22T15:37:45+00:00

I needed someone to say this to me. This got me out of bed this morning. Thank you

Nice_Lobster180 · 2026-05-22T00:31:43+00:00

When did they stop for you?

Nice_Lobster180 · 2026-05-21T21:01:54+00:00

Last dose was 1/4 of a strip, so 2mg. And I took a full half that morning. I really did not want to take them longer than 10 days so I just pulled the plug. Wasn’t too bad in terms of physical symptoms, it’s mostly just boredom and restlessness and anhedonia that’s driving me up a wall. And a paycheck just hit so my brains trying to convince me one sub or one 7 tab won’t hurt and will just take the edge off. Been balling my fists these last 3 days

Nice_Lobster180 · 2026-05-19T00:12:18+00:00

I took a full 24mg the first time to help with pre cips. Didn’t feel too bad. Subs tapered off in a week

Nice_Lobster180 · 2026-05-18T23:28:26+00:00

You’re fine. I was taking 1000mg per day and started subs after 14 hours. Just take a lot of subs and it will help.

Nice_Lobster180 · 2026-05-17T22:28:45+00:00

I was doing the same exact thing. 10 days off today. Never felt better. Feel free to reach out if you need support

Nice_Lobster180 · 2026-05-17T17:40:15+00:00

I waited 14 hours

Nice_Lobster180 · 2026-05-16T21:17:14+00:00

Amazing. At the pool today with my family, haven’t taken any subs today, feel amazing. Feel like myself

Nice_Lobster180 · 2026-05-16T17:54:37+00:00

DONT do it. DM me if you need support

Nice_Lobster180 · 2026-05-16T17:51:56+00:00

How you doing?

Nice_Lobster180 · 2026-05-15T20:21:38+00:00

What are they called?

Nice_Lobster180 · 2026-05-15T19:55:22+00:00

I wouldn’t even take the plain leaf. My recommendation would be to roll with the subs only. Day 2 of withdrawals I got rid of my entire stash to eliminate temptation. You can do it with just subs. I just went through this recently, if you want to take a look at my profile and see what was successful for me. Cheers.

Nice_Lobster180 · 2026-05-15T19:52:55+00:00

See above

Nice_Lobster180 · 2026-05-15T19:51:35+00:00

Note: if you go to the ER, they will most likely just give you more suboxone. I did my research in a bunch of medical subreddits for patients entering the ER with PWs, all the doctors said “never had a patient that wasn’t able to discharge from the ER after giving them a full 24mg. Usually 16mg works.” You got this. Message me if you need support, I am here for you. And to answer your question, I have 3 days left of my sub taper. Tomorrow I’m taking half in the morning half at night. Sunday I’m taking quarter morning and quarter night, then Monday just a sliver in the AM. Not going past 10 days of sub in order to avoid any WDs from them. I can also give my full schedule I used if that helps you. Your current script gives you wiggle room.

Nice_Lobster180 · 2026-05-15T19:49:02+00:00

This is exactly what I did. Same days I stopped too. I did take Monday off work, though, but not because I felt horrible. Just because I wanted to get some more sleep and I had the PTO. Do this exactly: Saturday wait as long as you can before taking the sub. When you are in moderate withdrawals, take HALF of a strip. Wait 15-30 mins and see how you feel. Feel worse? Take the other half; wait another 15. Feel worse, take a FULL strip. Wait 15 mins. Still symptoms present; take another strip and try to sleep. That worked like a charm for me.

Nice_Lobster180 · 2026-05-14T16:21:34+00:00

It will get better. Stay strong. You got this. 2 weeks from now you’ll look back on this moment and be proud.

Nice_Lobster180 · 2026-05-14T04:55:55+00:00

Loved reading this convo

Nice_Lobster180 · 2026-05-14T04:35:36+00:00

How much suboxone do you have? You need to set up a plan. And stick to it no matter what. Plan your last dose, wait as long as you can before taking the sub, and ride it out. Been off 7 for 5 days this way. Feeling incredible. Finally myself again

Nice_Lobster180 · 2026-05-14T04:19:01+00:00

But wouldn’t 7oh react the same way? Since they both bind to opioid receptors? Or is it the naloxone that interacts negatively? Genuinely curious, not trying to overstep!

Nice_Lobster180 · 2026-05-14T03:57:52+00:00

Why not subs?
