i was addicted to roxis/oxys for about 3 months and didnt think that coming off of them would be so bad considering i wasnt on them long, but i was taking about 10-12 a day (15s and 30s mostly the blues), heavily abusing them. i got into a lot of trouble and my life fell apart completely on these things. I had to move back in with my parents and stop talking to all my old "friends". okay, so i stopped taking them about a month an a half ago, and i have already gone through most of the physical w/d's but now im going through some serious mental wd's. (severe cravings, feel boredom and depression all the time) i just got put back on my vyvanse because i heard that it helped with the wd's but so far is not doing a thing, just making me want them more. i have a psychiatrist appt. in a month (a long ass time!) and im hoping they can put me on something to help with these cravings. what kind of advice can you all give me that might help and what kind of medication should i be thinking about as far as reducing the cravings and helping with the depression? Any advice/input would be helpful!

thanks!!

well imo the only thing that will make the cravings go away is to just tough it out, or give into the craving. If you have to choose the second choice I would just do small amounts of suboxone(1-2mg) but not every day more like every other day or every 3 days, because if you take it too often you will just get addicted to it but if you do it right it will help the depression and help with the cravings...on the other hand for some people suboxone just makes them crave even more because they feel like it doesnt really get them high but is just a teaser.
 
3 months of use? that's not that bad actually, if i we're you i would just taper down and get off them without the use of Methadone or Suboxone befor you get any worse off imo, trust me if you don't then hell like you've never seen is coming.


If it gets really bad at first then take a little bit of Suboxone for the worst of it, no more then 3 days in a row, space it out.
 
You posted this exact same thing and I moved it to tds. Please don't double post.
