New to green light

I am mentally prepared and also have the correct meds so this should be pretty smooth. The initial 24 hrs period of waiting to take first sub was the worst. Now I am almost through day1. It's been about 31 hrs since last oxy and so far so good.
I'm trying to figure out when to take the next sub and what amount. I took 8 mg at 3pm and I'm very comfortable. Next dose tomorrow ??
How much? What time ?
I'm thinking about taking 4 mgs late morning around 10am.
Or I could wait until I start feeling the WDs. And advice out there.
 
I mean I would say if you took a 8mg today wait until you feel shitty if you want to quick wing down try a half u can always take the other half later.
 
Day 2. 48 since last oxy. I took 2 mg of subs at 1pm today. Fast taper appears to be working. Felt good the am. Much clearer head today.
NO SERIOUS WD SYMPTOMS!!!!!???
 
I also to 1 lorazepam and 1 neurontin at 1pm. They sedate you. They helped a lot yesterday don't think I need em today anymore.
To anyone who want to detox off of opiates the quick method works and is really easy. NO MAJOR SUFFERING AT ALL. Just use the short detox with subs and it's easy. If anyone has questions let me know. I'm planning on tapering off the subs in another 2 days or so. I have plenty of them so I'm going to keep comfortable but more importantly I'm going to taper off fast. I guess I will me myself 2 more days so the will be 4 days total on subs.
I highly recommend that u taper your drug before you start. Even if it's only one day. I tapered from over 300mg of oxy in a couple of days to 120 then last day was 30mg in an and then 15mg at noon and last 15mg at3pm. I successfully induced 18 hrs later with 2mg sub. All has been fine since. I'm comfortable and confident that it's working now 48 hours later.
You guys can do this and it's easy not hard. THE HARD PART IS MAKING UP YOUR MIND TO DETOX AND BE CLEAN. HAVE A CLEAN MIND FOR A FEW DAYS AT LEAST. I am tapering off the subs in a total of 4 days I hope.
THIS IS REALLY EASY AND ANYONE CAN DO IT JUST GET A COUPLE OF SUBS. a think 2 at a minimum depending on habit. I've been taking prescription meds for over 10 years on and off. And my monthly script of 120/ 30mg oxycodone plus 60, 30oxymorphon is enough to get anybody going. My insurance pays almost all of it. You guys can all see where this goes. So here I am again.
 
It takes time for the subs to get stuck in your body lol it stays for so long because they like stick to your brain receptors like glue. That's why the longer your on them and higher mg just like all drugs harder to kick. I'm glad your doing good though stay positive like your are you'll be ok. Ive seen people (not many) go through it like cake. So keep ya head up!
 
Thanks Justin. I just took 2mg sub cause I was starting to feel bad. But it will less tomorrow which is day 3. I want to be clean of them by this weekend so I have 3 more days to taper. So far so good. Felt great this am and the other meds are just keeping me sedated. Going to cut them out tomorrow
 
Do you know how long you have to be off the subs before taking oxy again. Remember I'm using for pain so I'm not going to take 100mg at once to get high, just one 30mg pill if i need it

You're doing great man.
Trust me here - i've done tapers with bupe before, and if you can steadily reduce down to less than 1mg (0.2mg is ideal IME) - you can pretty much negate the WD altogether.

As for how long it will take before you can use oxy again, it depends what you are trying to achieve.
You will run the risk of getting WD if you use oxy too soon after detoxing - plus it would be very easy to slip into active addiction.
If you're doing this as a tolerance-break kinda thing, i'd say your tolerance will take a little while to re-set; but honestly there is no single answer to that question - every person (and every habit, it seems - even in the same people) is different.
 
I am doing it as a tolarance break and detox I do suffer from chronic pain and get a hefty oxy script I'm not in constant pain as the pain comes when I'm more active. I am hoping to try to take the meds only when in serious pain and not every day just to feel good. I Don't know if this is possible but it's my last try. I need to know how long after I stop the subs which will be say .5mg the last day. Before I can take the Oxy if needed. I hope to b clean of subs a couple of days at least since I'll only b on the subs for 5-6 days max. With a taper. It should be too long to wait. I did not think I could get WDs going from low sub dose to 30mgoxy? I have had precipitated WDs from starting the subs too soon. NEVER AGAIN THAT WAS HELL. I can't imagine that going the other way.
 
I have chronic pain so my addiction, called dependence by my doctor comes from my very high tolerance. I really won't to take the meds only a couple times a week. I will suffer the other days. I hope this will prevent me from having to take opiates just to keep from being sick. Recreational use is more defined and fun oriented. Party than chill. I know it's hard to chill as it's hard not to take a bunch of oxys when you have 120/30mg. Every month. It all leads to the same place so he I am with a new idea of how to manage my pain and meds. If this don't work i will have to live in pain forever as I can't take the stuff everyday, cause then it won't work right when I need it so I takev2 at a time until the pain goes away. That don't work. So I'm detoxing which is easy and then I'm going to TRY to take the meds ONLY WHEN REALLY NEEDED
 
Taking the meds after Suboxone shouldn't get you sick at all so take a little see if it works they say it stays in your system as a blocker for 24-48 hours I've ways used same day (though I know it didn't do much more mental) it's taking the Suboxone after the opiate will get you. Either way one day or another your going to want or have to quit so try not to build I high tolerance in my opinion but easier said than done saying you'll only take 1 or 2 when you have a pocket changing with meds lol. You seem to be doing the right thing and there's 100 people that can help if not.
 
DAY 4 since last oxycodone. Down to 1mg sub this am and 1 mg this evening. Still no serious WD symptoms. Tomorrow will take only .5mg sub or none at all. So altogether the quick detox is working. If I stop subs tomorrow that will be a 5 day detox. I feel good but tired. For anyone out there that needs to detox off opiates. YOU CAN DO THIS PAINLESSLY! All you need if 2/3 subs. ( some plans out there for using only one 8mg strip) A few benzodiazepines would help but I haven't experienced any serious WD symptoms at all.
