I last used heroin last night about 7PM. I waited until about 11AM to take sub...I got up at 7 in sweat, showered, and got back in bed, trying to sleep as long as possible. Finally at 1030AM I got up, and debated taking Sub...it had been about 16 hours...so I did, but just a tiny bit, probably less than .5mg. Over the course of an hour, I didn't really notice anything...not better, not worse...so around 1230, I took another .5mg...I have a job interview at 2:20PM, and it is 1:10 right now....I'm so deathly afraid of precipitated WD, but I think that if I did go into it, it would've happened by now, right? As I'm sitting here, I don't feel horrible, but don't feel great either...still have that overall discomfort from WD.

Should I just take like 1 or 2mg now? Or if I do, will I THEN throw myself into precipitated WD? I have to leave for this interview in about 45 minutes and I can't go in there feeling like I do right now...
 
Sorry, your interview is obviously over by now. But I've shot heroin and taken 4mg Subutex after 8-10 hours and been fine. The rule of thumb is that you should be in at least mild withdrawal from your opiate of choice before you take buprenorpine. But that's a good way to go about it too, take a small dose first and see how you react. Well hopefully you don't find yourself in that situation again!
 
Yeah I just got back from the interview. I was sweating like a pig when I was in there, but only for the first few minutes. I think all my self conscious, somewhat socially awkward character deficiencies are heightened when in WD, because I had to force myself to look and sound confident. But anyway, at the time, every minute was like a century, I felt like this day would just go on forever. WD is so fucking weird on the mind...it really makes you feel like this is the absolute worst day of your existence. But right before I left, about 2 hours ago, I took about 1 mg of Sub, not knowing if it would throw me into precip. WD, or if I just needed MORE, and it would make me better. Well, 2 hours later, I think it made me feel a littttlle bit better...but I'm still operating at only about 65-70%...definitely better than I was earlier, but still feel a certain degree of WD. I can tell when I go to the bathroom...I know it's weird talking about stuff like this, but when I pee, it's like my whole body feels it, like I get goosebumps and the chills, and it doesn't burn coming out, but there's definitely a heightened sensation. Also just rubbing my hands on my face, I can tell it doesn't feel quite normal. I don't know...I think I'm gonna try to take a little more sub now...maybe 1 more MG. It's now been about 20 hours since I last had any dope.
 
I totally get what you mean about going pee and how every minute is an eternity. Man, wd is hell on earth!! You should go up to 4mg and you'll feel well.
