Sober and on Vivitrol shot for 2 months - tired, angry and irritable!

While a lot of people have found success with viv, a lot of people have reported the kind of general anhedonia dognasher is describing. I mean, it kinda makes sense, given the effect of naltrexone on andrenaline.

I'm happy to see you're finding your way dognasher. It was a LOT easier to detox from buprenorphine, considering I did it right and knew what I was getting into, than any other habit I've had. The subtlety and length of dorm symptoms bugged me, but it was much more mmanagable than I imagine.

I also got on bupe after about a month of abstinence. I found it much more effective and easier to maintain on a low dose like 2-4mg than it would have been had I switched straight from using.

Keep up the good work. If you just keep moving forward and making good, healthy decisions you'll get where ever it is you wanna be.

It sounds like we have much in common! I am glad to hear that the WD's were manageable for you! That makes me feel so much better! I appreciate all your support during the last few weeks. :)
