Thought I would post this for everyone ,who like me a month or so back, who are feverishly looking online for answers on how to detox from opiates and for others who are wanting to read about people who successfully did it at home. Just know that it can be done! I recently came off of a two year opiate addiction, starting with oxycodone and eventually ending with IV heroin. Everyday I would wake up and be terrified of the big monster known as withdraw, which caused me to do what most every other addict does, that is whatever it takes to not let it happen. I ended up stealing, lying, and ultimately hating the person I have become. Then one day, I told myself that was enough! I was done living the lifestyle. I had told myself that I was gonna quit a million times before, but until I actually wanted it, like really wanted it, it never happened. I ended up buying a half a dozen or so suboxen and gradually lowered my dose over a month and I ended coming out with no hardly any withdraw! If used properly, suboxen is a miracle drug. I started with a full strip and at the was only taking a half a milligram every other day, and because of that I am a month sober from everything. It can be done! Don't let anyone, including yourself tell you otherwise.
The first step however is the hardest, admitting that what you are doing is the problem and knowing that it must come to an end. You cannot romanticize about it! Everytime, that little voice pops into your head, you have to think of all the terrible things that come with the drugs, no matter how it made you feel when you did them.
I hope this gives at least someone a little glimmer of hope that you can stop doing whatever it is that you are and that there is a life afterwards. Just stay strong and keep believing it will get better. Everyone can beat these awful drugs, don't let them beat you.
