Getting Off Heroin - IV or Snorting Worse?

Hi,

I was an Oxycodone addict for about a year. Switched to heroin for two weeks only snorting. Took suboxone and was clean for a week. Got back on the H Train and have been snorting 10 bags a day of very decent stuff. 5 bags at a time twice a day. I have 3 Suboxone 8mg left. How screwed am I and also, if I were IVing it, would withdrawal be worse? The last heroin session I did was for about 3 weeks. Will I be ok? Please help because I'm really scared to quit. Also, I was taking 6 30mg oxys a day when I switched. To be honest, I never really got high from heroin. I felt happy, but never nodded, even on 10 bags. I know this shit was good because everyone around me was basically nodding and drooling. I just have a really high tolerance. If I opened one of the bags, my whole room would smell like dope for 20 minutes that's how good this shit was. Got it from Newark NJ. The dealers over there, once you make a good connection with them, will deliver to your doorstep which is awesome. I have to get off this shit though. I want me to be me again.

Thanks!
 
damn homie thats rough. Atleast you are not banging your dope (yet...). If you don't even really feel your dope whats the point? Try and get off the shit. But I know how hard that is easier said then done, especially if they deliver to your doorstep damn!! Wish I had that kind of service. But you got to really want to quit man and a geographical change for atleast a month helps alot too. Trust me man, I feel you I am scared shitless to quit
 
it's all too subjective and a personal opinion when it comes to what kind of withdrawals you'll experience.

use the search function and check out threads dedicated to aides used in the withdrawal process. there are quite a few guides and peoples thoughts on the matter.

i'm going to move this over to BDD as it'll fit better over there i think.
 
My best advice would be to try to make the suboxone you have last as long as you can. Take just enough so you can function and get through the day, otherwise all it's gonna do is delay the withdrawals. I can take 1mg or less and itll make me feel fine.
 
take 2mg bupe per day, if you're stil in withdrawls after taking the 2mg's of bupe, wait at least 2 hours, then redose... you waant to make these subs last as long as possible, and allwats ho a tiny but down every week (1mg if you can) same, if you're sill in W/D then up the dosage a bit
 
As phatass said, try 2mg Suboxone and take another 2mg after a couple hours IF YOU REALLY NEED IT. If you only have mild withdrawals try and deal with it for as long as you can. Try to conserve. Don't take anymore than 8mg a day. Try to take less each following day. Just taper off the Suboxone slowly.

Why continue using dope? It does nothing for you so fuck it. Stop taking it.
 
Like everyone has said, DO NOT OVERMEDICATE YOURSELF WITH SUBOXONE. It is completely pointless, as it will just delay the withdrawals, not make them any easier. Take just enough suboxone so you can get through the day and function.
