^ I never got much from IV bupe either. The only route I've ever experienced through was IV'd 1-2 mg Suboxone strips, though...which got me high within a 10 or 15 minute time window but provided no noticeable rush. Maybe it's different if you're shooting Subutex but, from my understanding, the naloxone is not really a factor for most users. It felt dirty/weird shooting those strips for some reason, too.
Me too, I've only gotten a rush from IV buprenorphine like 2x in my entire life. One time in the earlier days of my opioid/heroin IV addiction I was deep in the grips of heroin WDs and I shot <2mg and felt a unique, but subtle rush that hit within 20-40 seconds, but a lot of the subjective "rushing" effect was more correlated with relief of withdrawal rapidly. I will say though once or twice I got a subtle warmth and unique stimulatory rush unique to Thebaine-derived opioids (reminiscent of oxycodone).
