Cocaine doing coke alone

Thank you bro I really appreciate your help and advice. I've spoken to the other prescriber this afternoon on the phone. She's dropping me to 4mg and giving me a 2 week period to stabilise. After that she said it's up to me how quickly I come down on my dosage. My plan is to drop to 2mg after those 2 weeks,then come down by point 4 until I'm off the subs. They tried talking me I to starting this new injection called Buvidol but I said I'm happy on the oral dispersible tablets. The Buvidol sounds like a game changer, but I'm only going to be on 4mg subs so I don't see the point in switching to it.

The new prescriber has also insisted I take part in a weekly relapse prevention course as part of my treatment. If I don't turn up to the course my script gets stopped. I don't know why they've started playing games when I'm on my way to getting off the subutex. I've been reducing perfectly fine, then my counsellor and the first prescriber decide to fuck with my script because of my coke usage. I know people on bupe who smoke crack daily, and I'm sure many people on bupe use coke. This has just been a head fuck to be honest. They've played games then decided to put me back on the same path I was on anyway. I told the new prescriber today that I'm not a recreational coke user, I'm an addict trying to keep my usage down. She doesn't believe I'm only using low amounts of coke. Anyway my subs will be sorted Monday. Oh, I've got to be regularly drugs tested. I've told them what I'll always test positive for. I'm not lying to them I want their help.
no worries at all bro, I just hope my stupid amount of experience with subs can help someone. oh thats cool Buvidol they call it Sublocade in Canada. the intracutaneous injection of the bolus of buprenorphine they inject in your stomach fat? yes it is a game changer. actually I didnt mention it but yes sublocade is the best step down to opioid free from fent for me personally. for me 1 single 300mg shot of sublocade lasts in my system for 12 MONTHS. but then it just wears off so gradually I don't even notice. never get sick or have to worry about taking the pills/strips everyday. You dont even need to be dopesick before you get it either. no precipitated withdrawal at all. I have literally gotten my 300mg shot 10 minutes after smoking dope and never got sick at all just a totally smooth transition hours later. its a miracle drug for for sure but specifically for fent becasue it means you cannot overdose if you try honestly it would be hard anyway. also means you won't get shit out of any dope you use for a probably at least a couple months after the last shot so it kinda forces you to stay off it. but like I said 12 months I tested positive for it in my system after I got total of two 300mg shots over a couple months. so yeah maybe try it out man its really mild actually like does all the work for you a few months after the shot you'll stop getting as bad side effects and it just becomes background.

I didn't mention it to you because I figured you prolly might wanna just get off the Suboxone more rapidly lowering your dose like the way that you said. if Buvidol is the same formulation as Sublocade. without looking it up I bet its similar enough anyway that 12 months it will be in your system but after a few you won't even notice. so if you don't plan on fucking around with opioids anymore might not be a bad idea and actually in my experience with myself and seeing other opioid users who got it, it is honestly the highest rate of just abstinent. like after ~5 months after the shot I just didn't even care at all if I ever used dope again but before that I kept thinking "damn ill prolly just use it again anyway" but that feeling just went away for me.

idk why they treated you like that here where I am they have a really developed opioid program that doesn't play those games. except I had one of the dozen doctors I speak to its different every time tell me that he sees that I have never once tested positive for opioids in my system like they were recording me regularly as negative for opioids on tests I didn't even know I had to take. so do I even need Suboxone? lol. ive never gone in for a piss test and im not gonna go in for the one he ordered just because im actually kind of insulted at this point. but here I know they wont jerk me around like your office and they expect meth or coke use anyway unlike like they did with whatever shit you're working with. you're right its pretty much standard lol

I did look buvidol up quickly to see if its any different from sublocade and from 10 secs of reading it seems like one difference is they can actually set it up to be a weekly shot or a monthly shot while sublocade is afaik just a monthly shot of either 300mg or 100mg. but ive had docs suggest to me taking a 300mg shot of sublocade every 2 weeks which seemed excessive to me so I didnt do it that way. actually even though it was a monthly script I only got a 300mg shot like once every several months like there was 2 or 3 months between two shots because I just personally wanted more space so I didnt have too much bupe. and still I never got sick in those months in between shots. I read the sublocade pamphlet back then and it does say in there that it will last for up to 12 months. Buvidol is even better sounding with weekly shots giving you way more control. so maybe it doesn't stay for anywhere near as long as 12 months with a weekly shot of that?

Thank you so much for all your help and advice I can't thank you enough. I started on the Dihydrocodeine today, but only until Monday when I get back on my bupe. I did forget how nice Dihydrocodeine was. Today, I've mixed Dihydrocodeine with coke, then my mate popped round who likes crack so I had a go on the pipe too. I know that's dangerous but I felt amazing. However, I can definitely see how easily it would be to get hooked on crack. I've only done it a few times in my life, but I'm one of those people where if a drug is on offer I'll more than likely try it.

Your help with the bupe is genuinely appreciated, thank you.
 
Well, my usage has crept up a bit. I've had half a gram a day every day last week and today. But I'll reel it back in. To be honest I use to do half a gram in a line so it's still manageable but crept up.
