Just wondering, and forgive me if this is on another thread, I will happily take the correction, but what are some "comfort meds" that can be used for tapering zubsolv? I am currently taking two to three 5.7 mg zubsolv a day and want to taper two under a milligram (sooner then i should I'm sure). My girlfriend is currently tapering and she is taking under a milligram maybe even under 0.5 mg and she has passed the 72-hour mark and seems to be doing surprisingly well for being this early into it. Seeing her do this is obviously making me want to push myself to getting completely off zubsolv. I have been taking some sort of Bupe for over 8 years probably over 10 but I can't be for sure. I have cut my dose down to 1 5.7 mg of zubsolv a day before, actually very recently but fell back into taking more because of work strain and other unrelated things basically just excuses for taking more than I should. I came across this thread looking for information for myself and for my girlfriend and was hoping it was several pages but I do hope the original poster is much better today. I think I'm finally ready to completely get off bupe, I have a great life, a wonderful job, and I have had almost no cravings for several years. I've had opportunities to make the wrong decision, but either mentally getting stronger, or just accepting adulthood. I would gladly post my day to day here and how I'm feeling, etc?I'm sure I'd have to probably start my own thread at that point.
I really think I'm ready. I currently have plenty of medication, and as I ran low last month, I thought how absurd it was, the amount I took. If anyone has any ideas about these Comfort Meds, I would love to try them out. I know about using small amounts of benzos, but I'm unsure of the amounts, times a day, an on.. I may be able to get my hands on some,but i'm not sure. I am pretty scared, as this is one of my biggest fears, withdrawal of course. I'm also very worried I've damaged my receptors beyond repair, but I'm hopeful. Thank you again.
