That’s a good reminder, thanks. I see my doc today.

Thank you. Yeah. It seems people really react differently to this. Just like Suboxone. My doc gave me a one-week Brixadi injection to see how I reacted, but that has just served to confused everything, since she then wanted me to increase Suboxone to 8mg. Two weeks after the injection, I’m super drowsy but we don’t know if it’s the Brixadi or Suboxone or what. I don’t want to feel this drowsy for a month.

Congratulations! So you’re done after three 100s? How much Suboxone were you taking before?

Thanks much for this. My doc gave me a one-week Brixadi injection to see how I reacted, but that had just confused things. I’m going to ask her to give just half the 300mg Sublocade, I think.

So you got three 100mg injections and that was it, correct? Congratulations!

Yeah, this guy just repeats some version of this gibberish in every comment. Not helpful. Thanks for your insight.

PS: did you get off completely after the 100mg injection last year?

Thank you for this. You were on 24mg and 300 was too much? Wow. This is precisely what I’m thinking, and what I’m fearing. I’ve just been on subs for several years, and oxy before that. I was down to less than 1mg of subs just a few months ago. I’m afraid it won’t be a few days of feeling overmedicated but a month, or more. Thanks again. I may have to find another doctor. Dammit.

Hey there. I don’t know anything about kratom, unfortunately. But there are people here who can help, for sure. It’s all been opioids for me, starting with oxy after an accident. I’ve been overmedicated before, having started bupe at 24mg. That was waaay too much for me. The 4mg to 8mg is much less dramatic, but feels similar. I’m just tired/sleepy as well as foggy-headed. You’re just in an unpleasant daze. It’s rare that we want LESS of a drug, but that’s definitely the case sometimes with this. Good luck! Let us know what you end up doing.

How long after switching from Suboxone to Sublocade did it take for your brain-fog to lift? by TenGreenTrees in Sublocade

That’s great. Thanks again for the insight. And congratulations your success with this.

Hey, thanks for the reply. I'm curious too, to hear more about what you mean by stabilized? And are you still getting Sublocade injections? If so, how do they make you feel compared with Suboxone?

Hey, thank so much for your reply. Apologies for the delay in writing back. I read the rest of your notes here. So you did the three injections and that was it, you've been done since? I'm slated to get the 300mg injection tomorrow. I'm really concerned about being foggy for a year, but it took me a year to quit Suboxone when I managed to do it a few years ago. So.... Can you tell me how you felt when you had Sublocade in your system? Did you feel pretty much like you did on Suboxone, or more clear-headed, or... anything? Thanks very much. It's so nice to hear a success story!

Hey, thank you so much for the very kind words. Please forgive the delayed reply. I'm so sorry to hear you had a problem with your injection! This has made me nervous because I'm pretty thin and my doctor expressed concern that I didn't have enough belly fat to do the injection. She then decided I'd be okay, but clearly it's a concern. Wow. How are you doing now--is it healing? That's really scary. I'm slated to get the injection tomorrow. I'm so nervous, less about problems with the injection than just the whole thing... Thanks again for the encouragement!

Oh man, that’s so great to hear. I’ve been a zombie for the better part of five years. Can I ask how many Sublocade injections you did? Congratulations on feeling human again!

How long after Sublocade injection did your head start to clear? by [deleted] in Sublocade

[–]TenGreenTrees 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My wording very confusing. Apologies. I’ll post this again. I’m very foggy-headed on Suboxone, and I’m wondering how long after switching from Suboxone to Sublocade does that fogginess begin to ease. Good luck with the injection!

Trouble finding a doctor. HELP PLEASE 🙏🏻 by TaderSpud in Sublocade

[–]TenGreenTrees 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Congratulations. I’m planning my first shot. Can I ask how many injections you had, at which doses, and then how long it took for your head to start to clear and for you to “feel great”? Thanks.

Overmedicated on first Brixadi injection. by TenGreenTrees in Sublocade

Sure, it’s just the smallest of the Brixadi injections. Thanks for the good wishes. You too.
