Hello Everyone. I have been a long time lurker on this blog and i have to say the support is amazing. I finally decided to create a post to hopefully not only help others, but to get help myself. Please dont tell me to "search other threads" i have spent hours upon hours searching this site and i have not seen a definitive answer to the questions i have. If you have any knowledge or answers to my questions, please instead of telling me to keep searching, please take the time to answer and help. I dont have endless time on my hands to keep looking and i would really appreciate your answers.

I have been using suboxone for a little over two years. I started off with 8mg 2x a day, but i quickly realized that was unnecessary. I weened down to 1-2mg 2x a day and have been stuck there forever :( I have tried sooo many times to get off the subs, but the withdrawls are absolute hell. Ive tapered down to crumbs, but still, complete hell. I am in sales and i travel all over the country, i need to always be on point. I cant spend 2-3 weeks walking around like a flu stricken, suicidal zombie lol.

I finally decided that i am done with subs, since i have absolutely no urge to get high anymore (i used to do about 100 mg / day of oxy for 2 years). So i bought 20 roxy's 30mg each to try and taper off. I have been doing great, i break them into half's and sometimes smaller if they dont crumble, and only take some when for bed and when i cant take the WD's anymore. I have been doing this for almost 2 weeks, and still have not once taken enough to get high, nor do i have any urges. I know some of you will tell me that I'm going to get hooked, trust me i am so over this crap, i will not. I just needed something to get past the initial sub WD hell. I know i will still have some WD's from the roxy, but since i havent touched an opiate for over two years, im guessing that 3 weeks of low dose roxy WD's wont we anywhere near the Sub WD's that i had experienced many many times.

However, i also will be traveling right around the time i should be running out of the Roxy. I really cant afford to be going through the first few days of WD while away for work. I have a huge presentation i will be doing in front of a board of directors, i dont want to be cold sweating and blowing my nose.

So after much deliberation, i ordered some Kratom from Ethnobotanicals. I didnt buy the extract crap, just the prime crushed whole herb. The lowest quantity they had was 50 grams, so thats what i got. I know this stuff can be addictive too, so i want to take just the bare minimum for a few days, and then just stop all together.

I am guessing that WD's from 3 weeks of low dose Roxy will not last longer than a week or so, so if i can take the Kratom for the first few days, the following few days should be manageable.

Here are my questions:
1. How much should i take per serving? The last thing i want is to take too much and get sick.
2. If i only used it for 4 or 5 days, would i feel WD symptoms? If not, how long does it typically take for your body to become dependant on Kratom?
3. Anyone, please give any suggestions that you feel would help. Any advice on how to take it, how often, how many grams, what worked for you?

I really dont need anyone scolding me on using the roxy to get off the subs, i did it, and i have no urge to get high after 2 weeks of low dosing. Just please help!!

Thank you!
 
I dont know about the exact dose when I had some I would just dump some in chocolate pudding and eat it till I couldnt get anymore down. Honestly though I didnt have good results with kratom it didnt do shit for my sub withdrawal.
 
You're doing what I do, sub2oxy, shorter half-life= shorter wd's... but bupre is a pesky bitch, so I usually stay on Rox for 3-4 months, than wean down to under 15mg per day.. Acute WD's last me 4-5 days.. Paws a lifetime..
