@@michaelj1552 embrace it. It’s a beautiful thing and your senses settle down within a few months. So worth it. Wouldn’t touch the stuff again if you gave me $1M
That means a lot to me that you think that. By the way, I love you yt name. I need something inspirational like that lol. I chose a name that I was hoping no one would really find or search for. I’m blessed to have people that are strong like yourself following my journey. Many blessings friend. I barely know you but I’m proud of you 🙏
I am tapering this time a really slow taper but I have come off suboxone cold turkey a few times in the past. I do remember it got better at the end of the 3rd week. Please hang in there. Take the good with the bad. Alot of bodily functions return like sneezing yawning and sex drive. Those are good things. The insomnia and aches and pains are the worst. I am grateful I have seroquel for the sleep. Suboxone lowers hormones especially testosterone and hormones impact every single function in our body. My estrogen was almost 0. I had to get on hrt. Since you stopped suboxone your testosterone levels should return to normal so that's a positive. Having low testosterone can make you feel like crap and impact your body composition. You can get gelatinized maca root powder to help your testosterone to go back up faster. Keep going you are almost there. If you really need comfort meds for the next 10 days it'sOK. .
Bro you are doing great! The journey off suboxone is a winding road, my friend. There is absolutely no need to beat yourself up or feel discouraged about anything at all. You are the tip of the spear for the generations freeing themselves from these drugs. Btw that’s great advice about not laying in bed when you can’t sleep. Im going to do that from now on. Also, I lol about sneezing. I get them thrice myself. 🤣 Regarding the Xanax, just follow your heart bro. I used it for the first few days. Sleeping is healing. But if you are super concerned then maybe stay away. In any case brother you are freakin’ awesome!! Keep it up!!
Dude, I still need to look up Daily Fresh BJJ’s channel. I will probably check it right after this…considering I’m already in the app 🤣 Thanks for the words of encourage. No reason to beat myself up is right. This isn’t easy, but it isn’t hard (when you’re prepared and ready) As far as xanax, I had it for the first 6 days and as much as I want it, I feel like I want to not let my mind wander down that road. Lots of other people told me to try Kratom (sp?) and kava tea. But after researching both items, I would still be pretty reliant on substances which my body doesn’t make naturally and my body (liver) has to work really hard to process and eliminate. So I’m taking my holistic nurses approach and trying for a natural detox from every to let my body heal. But fuck is that accurate, sleep in healing. I’m glad you said that. Always right when I seem to need it most I read some wisdom from you. Always appreciate you, you’re part of my story now whether you like it or not 🙏
@@grapefruitsandwich7398 haha I said (and thought) the same thing - it’s not easy, but it’s not difficult either. Sub wd be like that I guess. Meh leave the Kratom it delays things and you have to take tons and tons of the shit and imo the constipation is even worse than subs. You’re doing fine brother one day at a time. One moment at a time if you need. Bro. You were at day 1 not long ago. Wtf! It’s God man. I’m not great at understanding Him but I try. He’s got you brother. Stay strong and know you are awesome. Proud to do life with you. 💪
Having some issues today but I’m about to film my video. Life is still worth living. This freedom is worth it I’m pretty sure. The real question is, how are you today?
@@grapefruitsandwich7398 I'm doing great today. At the lake with the fam. Your doing so good with your good attitude. I'm sure it gets really rough sometimes
I’ve been having trouble sleeping. I got to day 8 and after day four I couldn’t sleep. Between day 4 and 8 I got like 6 hours of sleep. Took a quarter of a pill and then went to sleep. Then went six days and same thing. The not sleeping is driving me nuts. But the one thing I’m Not doing is paying for them. I still have some but I’m just trying to push myself to not take them. My gf has them. But when they are gone it’s gonna be a hell of a lot harder than I’ve thought it’s been. I’ve had the restless leg or it feels like electricity running through my legs or hot ants crawling on me.
I weened down to 1mg and sat there for over a year. Then the taper was rather quick. Once you get to 1mg it stops doing what it used to for you. Others will say it doesn’t and that 1mg is still REALLY strong. I used to think this too. After a year of being on 1mg my brain really detached from the subs and a lot of fog was lifted. It took time. I didn’t know if I was going the right way, but I kept going, and I’m so grateful I did. Life is amazing today.
@@grapefruitsandwich73981mg strong?i want to use suboxone 2mg to quit kratom WD..some said sub WD longer than kratom.after reading these i cancel getting suboxone
@@grapefruitsandwich7398What day did you start really noticing a difference with the withdrawal lifting? I’m currently passing day 7, and I jumped at 2mg, but honestly, I don’t feel bad. After day 5, I have felt so much better. I still have some minor physical symptoms, and sleep is not great, but I have never got this far, and my mental state helps. I think it must have to do with my metabolism, because I’ve heard so many horror stories. Thankfully, I’m not in that category.
im still on subs as of today i wanna get off of them an not be on the rollercoaster ride everyday im sick of it im on 12mg a day 8mg in the Morning 4mg in the evening sometimes i dont take the 4mg in the evening on the weekends because sometimes ill sleep most of the day becuz i work 5 days a week so i can go all day with just taking 8mgs all day i am trying to get to the point where i am doing that everyday but its rough when i wake up early in the morning for work everyday
Yea bro listen to the above guy I am IN EXACTLY THE SAME BOAT AS YOU. I am on day 7 on Sublocade and fuck me it was hard to get here. I topped up 4 mgs 3 times this week but I think my body is getting used not dosing everyday for over a decade
I didn’t get to say it but I had a dream I relapsed and realized when I woke up that was impossible but I forgot to even talk about that. My mind… I swear
@@grapefruitsandwich7398 yea those dreams suck. But then you wake up and realize it was only a dream. Grapefruit sand: 31 Suboxone: 0 2 minute warning in the 4th. You’re gonna win this. Stay strong 💪

Thanks for documenting your entire process of coming off Suboxone. And not making it a horror story is definitely great to see

@@michaelj1552 I hate restless legs…if there is a list of things that keep me straight these days, that would be up there.

Cold Turkey???? You're so strong. I wouldn't even attempt that.

Why did you write the word “relapse” in the title? Bro…lol. You didn’t relapse. You’re punching suboxone in the face!!
I didn’t get to say it but I had a dream I relapsed and realized when I woke up that was impossible but I forgot to even talk about that. My mind… I swear
