Bupe Is subutex contributing or causing anger issues?

I've had anger problems on other opioids especially morphine and oxycodone, but ever since ive been on subutex (12 days now) ive been consistantly annoyed and irratable, however my life genuinely is irritating and depressing regardless of what drugs im on, at this point im worried that ill be chronically irate on subutex, or that being angry every day is genuinely better than the emotional pain i would normally feel when not on anything. Ive also noticed my memory has been really really bad. Im basically geriatric, pissed off by everything and cant remember shit, and always struggling on the toilet too boot.

Does someone with more experience with subtex have anything to say about weather my mood could eventually get better with time, or in general just what should i expect emotionally going forward with bupe. thanks for any input, i hope i made some sense in what im trying to ask
 
Yeah. Bupre can be particularly bad. It can get better with tolerance, or not.

And it has indeed particularly frustrating effect on cognition. Nothing like I get from any other opioid. Makes me lil' dumb.

Ive only been on it for a little under 2 weeks, would it be worth while to stop now? How bad would the withdrawls be from 6mg for 12 days. I want to be independent from opioids and not have my memory and mood be controlled by them.
 
12x6 mg? I don't know really, you'd need to tell of your history, how easily you can get withdrawals and someone with more expertise to give some vague estimation.

What you could maybe try would be smaller dose, at least.
 
Unfortunately, this is a pretty well-known potential side effect from Opioids. A lot of people call it Opioid-Rage. I know I've experienced it. The phrase "don't kill my buzz" was probably first uttered by a junkie being woken up from a nap. I have fond memories of staring at a television for 4-5 hours straight not actually watching anything only to become pissed off when someone interrupts me.

I don't know what it is, but it's a thing. If you experienced this issue with other Opioids, it would explain why you're experiencing it also from Buprenorphine. I'm sure there are ways you could learn to control these feelings. I know people with anger issues are able to learn to control their feelings. If the drug is truly required for you to have a normal life as you say it is, then I think it's worth figuring out how to make it work.

I get this from various opioids too, although it's a bit different with bupe.

It's not like bupe gives me an enjoyable buzz anyway, so nobody can "ruin" it by talking to me or whatever. I find that I get angry on bupe merely because bupe sucks. I take it & hope it'll get me feeling well & get rid of my cravings, but it basically just teases my mind & body with it's crappy partial agonism. It's like never feeling satisfied or content like I would get from a full agonist. So of course I end up feeling pretty bitchy some days over it.
