Not sure if this is the right place for this, so sorry if it it's not. Longtime lurker, first time poster here. Tried the search option, but couldnt find any experiences related to this scenario. Sorry if this is sortve long, but I'd like to provide a little back story.
I've been on Suboxone since about 2015. Except for a relapse after I was kicked off a new program, due to switching programs after 2 years as they were only a 2 year program, and the new one wanted me to return to weekly visits and groups after being monthly for 2 years and I couldn't manage that with work and transportation issues. So in sub withdrawal I got back on the heroin for a few months and losing my job in the process. So jobless, I was able to start a new program and have been on it steadily since March until about 7 days ago when the itch flared up and have been using again.
My question is, after being on Suboxone for all this time(Im prescribed 12mg but my dose depends on how I feel and it's usually anywhere from 8-12mg a day)and only relapsing for about a week, should I worry about bad Precipated Withdrawal or should it mostly still be on my receptors? I took my last dose(of heroin) about 6pm(its now 2am) and it barely did anything for me feeling like crap and unfortunately I have stuff to do tomorrow that I cant be worrying about withdrawaling, regular or precipated at that. Obviously, this is my own fault, and I willingly accept the consequences. Hopefully if anyone has any experience with this they can elaborate. Thank you.
