Okay.
I started at 8mg of sub a day for a 30mg-100mg oxy habit per day. I am now, easily, at 6mg.
I will remain at 6mg for about another week and then I am dropping to 4mg.
I have been taking a daily vitamin. Drinking lots of water. Taking .5mg klonopin here and there as needed, which is not often.
I am so ready to be off of this shit. So done with it. I am ready to start reliving my life. And there is no room in it for suboxone or any other opiate.
Overall, I feel good. I still feel strong and committed to stopping sub. I smoke cigarettes, and my cravings for them have gone down since slowing my sub intake. Anybody else experience that? I do not feel like drinking. If I sip a beer, the taste turns my stomach. Not complaining though! A hangover is the last thing I want right now haha. Sorry for the TMI but I am not as constipated as I was. Oh, and I am still sleeping just fine. I'm sure the messed up sleep will come when I am down to 1mg or less though, right?! Ugh, not looking forward to that.
I do get tired spells midday but besides that, I still have enough energy to do what I need and want to do in a day's time.
How is everybody else who is tapering, or already finished tapering? Stories, advice, always good. Need some conversation from people who are here or have been here. Don't have really any other form of support.
I let go of all of my friends who take opiates. Not only because it is toxic for me, but because watching others do them gives me anxiety. It upsets my stomach that I can't help people understand what a dark hole opiates are, and some of those people are alot further into the hole than I was (in fact, they would call my use a baby habit)
Done rambling! Come talk to me please!
