The thing to remember about kratom is that it works best in low to moderate doses. If you take more than you should the side effects will make you wish you hadn't.Awesome. I’m going to give that a try![]()
Ah, that’s good to know. I’m a bit of a chicken shit so I’ll start with a very low dose to start. I just placed an order this evening.We shall wait and seeThe thing to remember about kratom is that it works best in low to moderate doses.

I did read one comment that said they got WD's from spitting. Maybe they spat too soon idk. But I've read tons of positive comments about the spit method. Have not tried it myself. I got pounding headaches, nasty feeling of toxicity from Sub strips so my doc switched me to generic bup tablets. Then the headaches and sickness instantly went away. So I'm certain that the naloxone is toxic, at least for me anyway. The drawback is my insurance will pay for Suboxone strips but not generic bup tablets, so I have to pay for it myself.Worddd. I’m so going to try that tonight lol. I’ll let you know the resultsThat would be called the “spit method” that ppl have been talking about, right. It all makes sense now. Thx

Ahhh okay.. I’m supposed to take my next dose at 7 so I’ll let you know how the spit method works.. I buy extra subs from friends that also use subs so I have extras in case I feel the WDs.. I guess the built up spit that forms in your mouth you just hold it in your mouth and spit is all out at the end ? Seems easy enough.. mine are the Suboxone brand tablets that come in packs of 7.I did read one comment that said they got WD's from spitting. Maybe they spat too soon idk.

Well pretty sure the spit method is for sublingual forms like strips. Are your tablets sublingual? Or are you swallowing them.Ahhh okay..

Subliminal tablets. I just put them under my tongue. I would never swallow them lolWell pretty sure the spit method is for sublingual forms like strips. Are your tablets sublingual? Or are you swallowing them.
It sounds like you started taking Suboxone the same day you stopped taking the methadone and if that is the case it put you into what's called precipitated withdrawal. Worst experience of my life transitioning from methadone to Suboxone because I didn't have all the facts. Your last dose of methadone should probably be 48 to 72 hours before you start taking the Suboxone to avoid the precipitated withdrawals.Hello Bluelight forum,
I was on 35mg of methadone for the last 5 years, tapered down from 110 over the previous 8 years (13 years total.) Starting last Sunday my doctor began titrating me gradually onto Suboxone, called the Bernese Method I think. Today I stopped taking methadone and began taking the full 16mg of Suboxone. Long story short it's not working for shit and I am in hell.
He told me it would be a smooth, near effortless transition with only mild withdrawals. That turned out to be completely false. As my Suboxone dose got gradually larger, the withdrawals got more intense. I know the Suboxone is working because I feel loopy as hell, but it doesn't feel like an opioid to me at all. It reminds me of drinking cough syrup when I was a teen. I get dizzy spells I'm so effed up but at the same time I'm cold sweating, skin feels like its on fire, pounding headache, pain everywhere and absolutely no motivation to do anything but lay in bed. I feel no emotions but irritation with everything and everyone.
I'm starting to think this is a failure and I'm stuck on methadone, a prisoner of the clinic for life. Methadone works fine for me but the lack of mobility has crippled my career, made it difficult to help my elderly mother in another state. Any experience or opinions on this would be appreciated. Thanks.
