Hey guys, this is my first post at Bluelight. I joined because I want to get an opinion from some fellow junkies on the best way to take a vacation from suboxone with heroin or other opiates. I have been on suboxone for about 8 months straight, with no relapses. Well no relapses on opiates at least, I have used coke and MDMA though. Lately I have been really considering a brief relapse on my drug of choice, which is heroin. Im mainly curious if other people have done the same thing while in the middle of a high-dose suboxone maintenance program. I am on 12mg of suboxone per day now, and I am familiar with how long it takes for sub to get out of your system. Keep in mind I do have a very fast metabolism too.

If anyone has any advice, what is the best way to get off of it for a little break? I was thinking about just stopping the sub for a day or 2, and then eating poppy pods for 2 days or so so that I don't feel the withdrawals too much while the sub leaves my system, and then starting with the heroin. Does this sound like a good approach? Also, do you think my tolerance to normal opiates will be lower since Ive been on sub for so long?

And in case youre considering it, please don't lecture me on how stupid this is, because I already know I will probably end up regretting it. But what can I say, Im an addict :\.
 
Alright, I'll be frank with you about this.
Everyone reacts to suboxone differently. Some people can get high after 24 hours, everyone can pretty much get high after 72 hours. It also depends on how good the H your doing is. To be honest, I would switch back to heroin a day after taking like 32 mg of suboxone, shoot three bags, and get high and a nod.

Also if you decide to wait the two days, then I would definately NOT use the same ammount of heroin that you used before the suboxone maintenance. Always start off with as little as possible with heroin because you dont know how pure it is.

A lot of people ask these questions and the real problem is that there's absolutely no definative answere. I wish I could tell you to drink some kind of juice that would just blow the bupe off your receptors, but there's no such thing.
 
Ya man, he's right. it depends on your ROA and just how your brain chemistry works. Id give it at least 36 hours if taken sublingually. If IVed i'd wait at least 24 hours. 24 hours if IVed is more than enough IME
 
I don't think this will work well for you.

It is more ideal to taper down on Suboxone over the course of days to weeks, before attempting heroin use again.

Either way this type of thread is considered self-serving and is frowned upon. This is what the Suboxone Mega Thread is for, so please look into that thread for further discussion.
