hello i am a 25 year old female, i am trying to start a detox at home fore next few days, i am a user of h for past 4 months i am up to a bun or 2 a day, i have been a user of roxicodone for about 3 years, i am finishing out what i have left o h tonight, oh and also i only snort my stuff, i bought 3 subutex they are the new white pills 155 on one side, and the other a crescent moon. i plan on taking maybe a half as soon as i start feeling full blown withdrawals, i also have weed to help with any other things, i eat a lot of fruit and am pretty healthy, i need to be opiate free within 7 to 10 days, i have an appointment in 2 week for an intake. i am trying to start taking the injection vivitrol that lasts for 30 days. it helps with cravings and is also a good reminder that basically it is a waste of money to buy anything because you will NOT get high, and second and more important if you try and put opiates in your body you will get precipitated withdrawls, and they are not normal withdrawls , they are withdrawals on crack, basically you are in agony. all in all i am basically wondering if anyone can give me a timeline, or a breakdown of a taper routine for subutex i have that would be a amazing, please and thank you
 
Vivitrol won't stop any cravings really you will still want the stuff really bad it just won't get you high. Its not gonna curb cravings like opiates such as subutex or methadone because it's only an opiate antagonist.

I'm good with making taper plans so I'm guessing those are generic I've never seen the 155 ones they 8mg or 2mg? And You have 3 of them right just let me know what mg they are. If they are 8 mg then it would probably be good to do 4mg to start see how that holds you you shouldn't need anymore than 4mg that's a lot of opiates right there but if you do just add to it try 6 see if that works better. Once you find your stable dose you start going down by 1 mg increments until you reach 1 mg a day then you go down by .25mg increments if you have enough and once you get to .25 you skip one day then take .1 or .2 the second day after you took the .25. After that you should be fine to jump right off and the withdrawal will be minimal if you even have any. Message me for any questions let m know what Strength the pills they are most likely 8mg but I get a different brand so font know for sure mine only have a line down the middle one side and they are white and stop sign shaped they have a 2 on the other side for 2 mgs. I've never seen your brand as I live in canada
 
Hello: I hope that someone here can help me out. I take prescription drugs daily. Morphine 2 times a day. 30 MS contin in the a.m. 15mg MS contin in the eve. I could take 4 breakthru 15mg Oxycodone but am down to two a day. I went to a pain clinic a while back and got a script for suboxone and never took them. I bought the out of pocket as I know there can be issues with insurance (another story.) My questions are: Do I have to taper off first.
How soon after my last dosage do I start taking my suboxone . What is the least amount of time I can be on suboxone before stopping. Do I stop cold turkey from the subs and do I also have to taper off. I know I've asked so many questions but I really appreciate any help I can get. The physician I did see passed away and I'm not interested in paying for any more visits when there are so many people that have gone through the same situation and have more empathy. Thanks Michelle
 
Hiya Lil' :)
I couldn't agree more with my friend comfy. TrainS is just awesome (both inspirationally, as well as exemplary) at things of this nature. I've been an avid reader (as well as a whole hearted believer) of TrainS' ordeal & journey. He's got an intamite knowledge of some of the same things you've mentioned, as well as a serious handle on how to "get there, from here" ~ if ya know what I mean ;) ~ LoL!
But having said that, don't count out ANY of our most awesome ambassador guys (& gals) like my buddy Comfy, the Capt'n(H) & Evey (she's just inspirationally awesome & another personal hero of mine!)
& hiya Michelle, as well :)
You should really think about starting a quick little intro thread, so you can introduce yourself to our awesome community & say hello ;) I think you'll find that the people here are genuine, honest & do actually genuinely care for each other.
I'm sure that the both of you will be able to meet the positive & encouraging people you're looking for, to find the right answers to the questions you have & just generally make new friends & have a truly enjoyable & rewarding experience, here. Remember, we each take away from our experience within BlueLight, in our own personal & most beneficial way. What may work for you may be different for another, yet we are all willing to share our experiences with you, so that we all can benefit from such a great forums site like this one.
Looking forward to seeing both of you in our forums/threads soon..

Love & peace for all,
~ N3f ✌:)

I'll private message you k?
 
Hahaha :)
& y'all wonder why the guys like my good buddy & **brother from another** - & my personal hero: "TrainSpotter" ... just happens to be a personal hero & role-model of mine ;)
Now see, this is just the absolute perfect example of why I feel it's sooooo important to find someone your comfortable talking with & willing to except suggestions &/or advice from.
Michelle, I cannot stress enough, how important it'd be to find yourself someone as willing and as honestly open as my good buddy & brother, TrainS!!! He's deffinately an honest to goodness "good guy" & one of the genuine few that have more interest in helping others then even themselves (a VERY RARE THING).
Well, still wishing you all the best of luck & hope in finding what your searching for. Truly
Hope to see ya, as well, as ALL my other brothers & sisters in this most awesome forums site :)
WE TOGETHER, are a blessing for those that are less fortunate. But only together, can we make the one and only difference that can change this world & bring a better tomorrow for all.

Love & Peace for all......

heyyy sorry i'm responding a little late, thank you for all the help so far, im starting the detox tomorrow, and yes trains they are 8mg, i have been reading through forums for a few years, this is my first time posting my own threads, i was a bit confused as to how to to start a new thread, i would love to introduce myself to the community and get as much help as needed, and hopefully further down my recovery i can help someone as well, i did research vivitrol alot more, i understand they wont help the cravings, but honestley this is the sure fire way for me to stop, to know that i cant get high and i wont waste money, ive been down numerous roads with detoxs, 30 day tratment centers, pop, methadone treatment, and suboxone treatment, i want to try every avenue, and i think vitriol would help me the most, i am calling a few places on monday, because everything is closed this weekend, to hopefully get into the program within the next two weeks,

You posted this same question in the multiple threads, including 2 in OD. I got rid of the other duplicate and kept the one in the suboxone megathread, where I also responded, and I'm sure others will too. So for you and anyone else wanting to discuss this, please refer to The Suboxone Megathread.

Thank you.
 
I'm such a knob I am having trouble figuring out this forum...I'm so busy but I think it's great and I appreciate your helping me out...

I'm really trying to learn how to use this forum. I want to thank all of you for helping me out. Michelle
