Opioids Suboxone 1mg - harder to walk off 1mg than it sounds. Need help!

How can you cut the 8mg tab's down to 0.5mg or even 0.25mg etc? I just tried cutting a half of a half of 8mg and it shattered.
 
As for me I’m on day 6, zero opiates. Still feel shitty. The anxiety is surprisingly manageable. Maybe a 3 out of 10. 1800mg of gabapentin should drop that to a 2 or 1. But the lack of energy/motivation is extreme. Clearly depression…acutely so. I’m banking on it going away soon but I’m prepared for a longer battle.

In the end I’ve decided to just push through this fucking dark black cave with my fingers crossed. I’ve got my comfort meds. Gabapentin, ambien (the best of the bunch), trazadone, & weed. They all help. If you guys can name some others I’d appreciate it. Seems like it would be nice to have a muscle relaxer in the mix.

Thanks

Oh no you need the strips, my friend. You’re wasting your time with the pills. And just so you know, even with the strips the smallest I can get it to reasonably is 1 mg. I suppose I could cut it one more time to .5mg but man that piece of strip would be practically nonexistent.

Now you got me thinking, brother…. What if I try half a milligram for a while and then walk off? But again, I’ve come too far. I’m on day six I don’t feel terrible and I’m as clean as I’ve ever been in my whole life since I started using. If that’s not enough to get me across the finish line, then I deserve to be a junkie for the rest of my life..
 
You coulda had a seizure or possibly a stroke(?). Don’t do that again lol
I can’t even begin to explain how it felt… and i learned my lesson for sure lol. Walked off 500mg oxy + and was 10x easier than that and shorter..

Ketamine is a life saver for me going through wds.. prescription obviously if possible.. for me low dose throughout the day and then if i don’t have to do anything and already did my exercise can go a little heavier. Feel it out
 
get a scale or make it to liquid
I give scales a go, but is there anyway to recombine it into pill form? Can you powder it, weigh it to size then make a past, will it then reform harden into pill form? Any ideas what I can use for a "pill former"?

capsules i guess but why do u need it to be solid again? the amounts are gonna be so small its just a bump of powder
 
The problem I'm thinking about is putting 0.5mgs under my tongue.
Add, how do I put such a small amount under the tongue if in powder form?

How do you take it? If it’s prescription, what is it? Nose squirter?

You may be overthinking friend. You may be surprised what a tiny little nugget of Subutex can do. Just weigh out little chunks til you get your target dose, toss it under the tongue. I’m struggling to see the issue.
 
MAN I CAME OFF AT .5MG EVERY OTHER DAY IN 3 MONTHS SICK ASF I never met a human who did anything more than 1 year and walked away i am on sublocade now that W/D hurtttttttttt man hurt realllll baddd mentally not physically i needed back on sub or i wouldnt live im sure of that i got sad suicidal its a mental war my ptsd went psycho my ocd was NUts so i gave up back on sub ill be on it forever its fine just like klonopin SOOO GOOD LUCK MAN

SNORTING SMALL DOSES IS MORE EFFECTIVE .3 UNDER TOUGE DO NOTHING UP NOSE HELPS ALOT ~!
 
You guys are wasting the ketamine both ways, snort or sub. Ketamine is literally a different drug when you muscle it. No less than 3 times better an experience…particularly if you get a “deluxe” trip (happens 1 in 5 times). Highly recommend stacking with DMT. Absolutely sublime.

I can only imagine what an actual IV infusion of ketamine feels like, how they do at the clinics. I was never willing to pay the $600 for one dose that they were charging as I could buy 10 g of pure ketamine on the street for that price, but I am awfully curious. Has anyone tried both infusion and muscling? I would love a comparison between the two. If the difference between them are like the difference between snorting and muscling, I’ll pay the damn money. And I’m sneaking in that DMT..

Thanks, appreciate that. To respond, let me make sure I’ve got this right. You were on half a milligram of Suboxone., only every other day, for three months, and the withdrawal was still too intolerable to walk away from? Assuming I understood that correctly., and I’m honestly not trying to be a dick, I just have a hard time buying it. Unless your symptoms were exclusively psychological, which can happen after quitting many/most recreational drugs.

As far as nobody walking away from anything after a year? Just depends what you take and how much. Take fentanyl everyday for just 2 weeks and good luck walking off. A 20 year norco habit? With some tapering you’ve got a decent shot.
 
Working on day 11 now. Can’t explain how I’ve managed not to break with both suboxone and Kratom within arm’s reach. Anxiety is all gone. Bowels only just beginning to harden up. Sleep is still an issue, no appetite, but the main symptom is low energy/motivation. If I had access to a proper opiate I’m sure I’d break in a second. Good I don’t live in LA anymore I guess.

I would highly recommend anyone who wants to drop their suboxone. taper down to .5mg and stabilize first. 1mg doesn’t seem like much but it really is.
 
I detoxed with Subutex, for some reason in the UK we get subutex and not suboxone.

It went down to 0.4MG tablets as the minimum dose, maybe you could get them and jump off? I got weekly take homes so tapered off faster than the clinic knew. I even went as low as 0.2MG before jumping off by breaking the tablet in half, then I took it every other day.

See if you can get a lower dose, I promise from my experience I didn't even notice anything coming off that dose.
