Here's the thing, I've been on oxycontin (120mg-240mg) everyday for the past 4 months. I've experienced withdrawals before and it was, by far, the worst time of my life. I've seriously decided to quit using and I know that I will have withdrawals starting tomorrow. I'm seriously terrified and I currently have a job and I don't know how I'll be able to work while I'm withdrawaling. Luckily, I have tomorrow off but I will have to work for 2 days after that.
Knowing that tomorrow was going to be the start of my withdrawals, I was able to get 2 8mg suboxones. When I had withdrawals before, I was able to take 2mg of suboxone on my 3rd day and it helped me SO much that I wish I had taken it during all 4 days (which was how long my withdrawals lasted). I've read a lot of stories about how people used Suboxone to get off Oxycontin but most of them said they were on it for months..
So my question is : Would I be able to use these 2 8mg Suboxones (splitting them up into quarters) during my withdrawals so that I can function while I'm working? I honestly don't know a lot about Suboxone but all I know is that 2mg of it helped me immensely during 1 day of my withdrawals before. I'm wondering if I just take like 2 mg of suboxone while I'm feeling really bad and continue doing that for 3-4 days, will my oxycontin withdrawals be gone? I hear that it's really addictive but when I took 2mg during my first withdrawals, it made me feel normal and the day after, I didn't have a craving for it or anything. I was just hoping to take the suboxone for 3-4 days so that I can get through the oxycontin withdrawals without having to experience the horrible symptoms. Will this work or am I just being naive? Will doing this just delay my oxycontin withdrawals and make it start from day 1 after 4 days of suboxone use? Any help/advice is appreciated.
