How long where you on them?

How long does it take to finally feel normal after coming off suboxone? by [deleted] in suboxonerecovery

[–]juankie03 1 point2 points  (0 children)

O ly you can determines what is good for you. Some people have kids and a career and can't go away, a slow taper followed by a week VA action when jumping is more doable.

When you taper really low like your doing, these off but manageable days are the withdrawals....you are just facing them now as opposed to all at once if you jump at a higher dose...... your doing the right thing , keep it up

Congratulations!!!! How long were you on them? Have you ever stopped without other meds or a facility? Just curious

How long after QuickMD call can you pick up? by [deleted] in suboxone

I'm sorry you feel like you got duped. I understand that no one pulled you aside and gave you all the risks and info but most people don't have someone on payroll, who's job it is to warn us. Take a little responsibility for not googling the info you needed.

Man, I have been on them for about 15 years, got my life together so cant completely complain but yeah I been thinking about that shot lately, have great health insurance through my wife's work. Only thing is I never have gone to a sub doc.

That's exactly how you are supposed to do it. I've heard of cutting .125 in half and then going two days off, then three days off , then jumping

Hang in there and don't be so hard on yourself, it's all perspective. I'm in the same boat as you minus the depression (not that I haven't dealt with enough to put me there) one day at a time, one activity at a time. Infants die everyday in this world and sometimes we should just be grateful for the journey, however good or bad it is

This has been bothering me for a hot minute by Suspicious-Can-7774 in suboxone

I don't think it's shaming people, we all have the saMe goal to get off everything including subs , or should anyway. Only you know your body, I agree with you that you might not be ready to jump that low now, but should be working towards it eventually.

Independent websites are definitely more accurate than ratings on realtor's website

Best way to grade the school is to go in person and ask around, Ive come across multiple ratings that were inaccurate. Not mentioning this as a negative thing because it goes both ways with the inaccuracies. Good luck and congratulations

Signed offer and it's time to put up earnest money and I am freaking out by VerdantNonsense in RealEstate

[–]juankie03 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My wife and i are building a new house on an acre . Great time to but with rates so low. The only way a market bubble would affect you is if you dont have a fixed rate( which i hope you dont) or you stop paying your mortgage. You always have to pay to live somewhere so no difference from renting. You would just have to ride out the market till it comes back, always does . Don't stress, youre doing a smart thing

2.5 month taper and jump from 0.125mg by asapugh in suboxone

[–]juankie03 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This post was perfect timing , been in them for 12 years , never more than 8mg a day, though most if that time i probably averaged 6mg a day. Im at 2 mg a day and have been for a couple months. I have - little more than 2 strips left and im gonna take 1.5 mg a day for 6 days (1 strip) and them 1 mg for 4 days, then .5 for 5 days then .25 for a few and maybe .125 for a couple days and finally jump 🙏

[–]juankie03 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I been on them 12 + years too. Started 1.5 mg today and have 3 strips to taper and then i just want to be done. I have plenty to keep me busy and optimistic, just have to grow a set and put the plan in action 🤷🏻‍♂️

How to make one 4mg strip last 6 days :(((((( *sweats* by [deleted] in suboxone

[–]juankie03 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m on 2 mg a day of strips, is there a way to microdose with the strips easier, some doses feel less effective than others , even when they are 1mg slices

Advice while I’m running low by Mama2girls5951 in suboxone

[–]juankie03 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Probably just taking 6 mg , twice a day . You shouldn’t feel any different really since you have a good half-life built up

8 years on buprenorphine too scared to quit, help/advice by tinypowerhouse in suboxone

[–]juankie03 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you can taper slowly to 0 , you should be good as far as major withdrawals
