Heroin Still sore on day 28 of heroin withdrawl?

Okay; I'm on day 9 off the bupe.......feeling decent during the day; but get super sore and restless at night.....Having to take at least a trazadone and two .5 xanax (intranasally; sp?) to knock me down. I keep striving, but you all know, time stands still and it's hard not to want to use just to sleep really good. But i'm surviving and I'm not ever gonna use again and i'm not looking back. I refuse to talk about heroin even. (speak no evil). Just move on & forget. Then again, I guess I wouldn't be posting on here if I wasn't freaking a little. I probably shouldn't even take the trazadone because it doesnt even touch me......Sticking to the xanax is my only option. I wish my doc would give me those tanazapem mylan 5050 yellow boys.....best sleep i ever had. lol
 
xanax (intranasally; sp?) = a complete waste. Alprazolam, as with most benzos, is very poorly absorbed when insulfated. Just swallow it. However, since you haven't really been getting the full "benefit" of the xanax why not just not use it? The stuff is horrible to come off of once you have used it regularly. I know, after ten years of taking benzos there's little hope of a normal life without them. Abusing benzos was one of the worst ideas of my lifetime. I've abused most substances available in the US, and the only two that I cannot walk away from are opiates and benzos, and I'd rather kick opiates than benzos. At least with the opiates in time the withdrawal effects fade. For me benzo w/ds get worse with time and I always end up going back on them, prescribed but still dependent. Longest I've been abstinent from benzos since I started using them is about 35 - 40 days. By that point I feel like my heart has been ripped from my chest and I cannot go into public - rebound anxiety, plus some. I would't want to see anyone trade an opiate habit for a benzo habit, or worse yet be like me and have both to contents with for probably the remainder of my life. Thankfully we have methadone/bupe and compassionate doctors, although they are difficult to find.
 
got the same treatment when i needed help , drs like you need inpatient program
im like benzo are a slow taper
even the psychologist agreed

my girlfriend looked up his record and he got in trouble got writing scripts people didnt need
so he was just protecting his own ass

I actually am coming off suboxone now. I'm already really weary of benzo's.....my subox doc did not give me the xanax....i've had the same script of 90 for like a year.....so definitely no potential to get addicted here, i don't care about them......just using them during withdrawl to sleep and knock me out. I have heard that withdrawling from benzos can cause seizures and all kinds of ish.

peace.
