Hi,
I am having some issues and have had some issues with my subutex script.
Having been messing with opium and heroin for the last year or so, i decided to go back to the UK to get some help. I live in France. This is my 2nd time, 1st did the methadone route (which as i seem to remember was fine.) after a 5 year addiction.
When i went back to the Uk i was prescibed 8mg subutex which held me fine but with side effects making me feel uneasy and slightly panicky. I decided to forget it and do cold turkey with some valium and tramadol.
Subsiquently, i got back to france and began using immediately.
I then went to the doctor here, and as i had the subutex script from the uk, it was no bother getting a script here. The problem is, now i am starting to reduce my dose, it is resulting in panicy episodes and what i would probably call depression. I don't want to go out, my will to do anything or go out has gone. I don't remember this happening with methadone.
I am wondering if it is not suited to me. would it be better to swap to meth? Although i don't want the rigmarole and lengthy reducing.
Or could my dopamine/endorpine levels just be shot to pieces after years of abusing? Would an antidepressant work along side the subs?
Bearing in mind i want to get off the subs quick, although from the symptoms it feels like maybe they are not agreeing with me. Or is it normal that i will effects like this.
I was on an antidepressant before, with the meth. I am really reluctant to get on any more meds than i need to. Fed up with dependancy.
But right now i just feel like using, so something surely is wrong????
Any insight would be ever so appreciated x
