Suboxone sleep disturbance

[ArtVandalay]

I take 4mg suboxone when I wake up and another 4mg at noon. If I take it any later I get insomnia. Lately, I've had extremely vivid nightmares and using dreams. The nightmares are so powerful, I often wake up feeling pain (in the dream I'm either stabbed or bitten). The using nightmares usually revolve around having amphetemines, not being able to use them (makes sense, now that I don't use). When I was on pod tea, I'd often have vivid dreams, but rarely nightmares. I'm curious if others have similar nightmares or sleep problems on suboxone.

I've noticed with suboxone I would find myself sitting up awake staring into the darkness. I would catch myself doing it over and over throughout the entire night.

Yeah I'm on less than .25mg per day and the insomnia is killing me. I'll get really tired after I take it (with Klonopin) and then after that initial sleepiness, I can't sleep unless I smoke up...

I was on 8mg before I relapsed...my doctor prescribed it with trazadone which helped me sleep. I'd still have dreams of using but I was able to sleep through the night with the trazadone. I tried taking all 8 in the morning and that helped too with the sleep.

I barely got any sleep through my suboxone. Maybe 2 hours a night, on day 6 my script ran out and my doctor wasn't in the office, so I had no suboxone that day, got blasted off a Hydro 18 and finally slept. No money, day 2 no suboxone, no dope and I feel okay surprisingly. I think I'm just going to keep riding on and see how I feel within the next 2 days. I smoked pot and took seroquel and didn't even sleep which is really abnormal for me, normally I'd drop for like 16 hours lol

suboxone stays in your system for a long time, but you'll probably start feeling withdrawals tomorrow. Let us know how it goes..
