I was taking suboxone, about .5mg a day, for about 2 months. Last week, I took days off, to see how I would feel. I never really felt any full blown WD's, but I just wanted to keep taking it, so after those 3 days, I started back up again.

This friday, i had my last dose of bupe...about .5mg. Saturday and Saturday, used heroin. Woke up Monday morning, expecting to feel WD's, but woke up feeling ok...? It's been about 16 hours since I took my last hit of H. Usually, 8-12 hours after last dose is when I start feeling WD's, so I'm a little confused...is there still bupe on my receptors? It's been almost 72 hours since I've taken any sub, so I should be starting sub WD's too, right?
 
half a mg a day isnt that high of a tolerance if it held you . but did you mean half a sub? = .5? cuz half a sub is 4mg(8mgStrip/Pill) or 1mg(2mgStrip/Pill) bit if its really .5mg then thats why you arent feeling WD.

because your tolerance is soo low and either the half life of the bupe is still in you.. or the D was just that good.

But you should start feeling some time of WD pretty soon, if you don't that means your receptors arent that messed up and your still at the point where you can quit easily without taking something everyday.
 
yes I meant .5 mg (about 1/16 of an 8mg pill) per day. I'm just a little shocked because I've taken opiates, in some form, pretty much daily for about 2 to 3 months...so to stop, and feel nothing, is just beyond my comprehension.

I was planning on dosing some sub today as soon as i started feeling WD's, but I havent felt anything yet, so maybe I just wont take any sub today...? If I can get to tonight without taking anything, and still feel fine, maybe I really did jut narrowly escape the jaws of WD.
 
You may start feeling withdrawals, but I'm afraid I can't really say for sure either way. I remember your very similar thread asking the same question not too long ago. (last week? I think you had been off opiates for 4 days?) I suppose it's possible you avoided them again, but I also think it could also be a little too soon to say.

You should certainly not take anything if you don't think you need it. Play it safe and take it easy. ;)
 
Same thing I'm wondering. Rapidly tapered down on the Heroin use, including times where I could only get it every other day and suddenly it's 3 days without any and I feel fine. Just mentally craving. Except I've been using daily for 3 years now.
 
I didn't start getting noticeable withdrawls from heroin use until I did it for about 2-3 months straight. Before that I would do it 2 or 3 days a week, and didn't understand the big deal of it, and why everyone thought it was addicting, because I didn't notice anything, so I became a daily user until I spent all my money and then saw what a real withdrawl was.

I think when I did use 2-3 days out of the week I did have slight w/d's, but my inexperience with the drug didn't allow me to see this and realize what it was, because they weren't full blown.
