I just wanted to also say that I was on the stuff for 8 years at 8mg/day. It seems rather clear from the research I've done that the longer a person is on Subs, the longer and more acute the w/d and paws. After 175 days I was still not "normal". I say this as a word of caution to anyone who has been on Subs for a year or two...at a certain point, one needs to understand how "deep" they are getting themselves invested in this. I learned how delicate and organic my brain really was. It has been very humbling to say the least.
Goodbye Suboxone Im on day 6 going from 3 8mg a day for almost 3 years and I feel like an empty shell of a person I don’t even have the energy to play and wrestle around with my kids. Im expecting it to take a long time to get right again.
King Crowns lol 1 week? Long way to go pal. You have no clue what’s ahead. It’s a long half life drug so it takes almost 10 days for it to fully hit you. Plus everyone reacts different. There’s a lot of factors involved. And my depression from it didn’t start until months later. You’re obviously clueless on how this medication works otherwise you would make such an ignorant comment. You’ve already mentioned relapsing numerous times. I wish you the best but your attitude will make it harder.
King Crowns I’m good bro. I’ve been clean and healthy for 2 years. I’m not feeling sorry for myself at all bud. I’m well aware everyone doesn’t have the same withdrawal experience. But to say after a week you feel fine and to question others experience when you’re just getting started is laughable. This thread should be supportive and positive yet you’re on here calling people depressed and implying it’s easy for you lol. Keep relapsing clown. You’re 8 days in to a long battle and you’re talking like a moron. Get out of this thread moron. Stop feeling sorry for yourself and don’t relapse this time pal. 😉
I just wanted to thank you for this video. I'm 35..will be 36 next month. I got addicted to pills when I was like 19 I think. Withdrew so many times it ain't funny. Been to rehab. Just kept messing up. Got on subs about 4 or 5 years ago. The past two years my life has become a dream. I have an amazing man who loves me and my kids and our life is normal and good for the first time in my life. I'm thankful for the subs because they got me to this point. I know what it's like to be a normal person. Go to work and have a house and vehicles and hobbies and go on vacations and have money. All the little things most people take for granted but to an addict is a dream. I pondered the thought of staying on them forever. I mean why not life is good but I recently realized I'm numb. I dont get sad I don't get ecstatic. I just feel like without these things I could feel totally normal and honestly I'm sick of wasting over 300 dollars a month I could put towards my family. I decided a few days ago to start really tapering. My doctor prescribes me 6 mg a day(I started at 16). I know i can take 2 and still be ok. I'm making a plan and hoping by tax time (when i can afford to take a month off work) to be able to jump off. I wanna be down to like .25 mg every 3 days by then. I'm just scared cause I haven't been "normal" in like almost 20 years besides 3 years but I will say those 3 years I was happy. Anywho so glad to see u doing good and know it's possible. Thanks for sharing this!
Jennifer Herndon wow your story sounds so similar to mine. I was on pills 24 years. Have been on Suboxone just over 2 years and I have been tapering down since Jan 1. I have been at 2 mg since June 6 th. Good luck to you.
Jennifer.. & Angie im assuming neither of you were on methadone in your 'recovery' process?? I am currently on methadone(2 yrs now), but im seriously thinking of switching to subox..mostly for the 'freedom' from the methadone clinic . any opinion/thoughts/insights are much appreciated.. THX
Jesse's Girl Hey Jessie, I have a channel. I was on Suboxone and got off. If you go to my playlists you can watch how my Withdrawal went. Good luck! It wasn’t awful!
Proud of you my friend. I was one who watched your video when I started this journey. It's very refreshing to see you on the other side of this. I'm sure you family is very proud of you.
lol Yeah when i saw your previous video and you said you were cleaning your gutters while withdrawing from sub. I thought "yeah hasn't hit him yet." Ain't nobody cleaning out their gutter in full sub withdrawal lol. I am glad your clean man.
Also I was on 16 m went to 8 the last 2 months then lowered my dose ½ milligrams every 7-9 days. Got down to 4 then 2 for 3 days then 1 for 2 days then I jumped off. I felt the cold chills and restless legs. But it will end. I am 60 years old. So age will play apart in how soon you recover my opinion. But stay focused you will win this battle in the end.I’m slowly working out riding bike and go into the sauna to sweat out the toxins and juice and lots vitamins and 1000 m of C. I’m now helping my son and his wife with their 3 babies. So I’m letting anyone know that my energy and wellbeing is good and getting better and it’s been almost 3 months without suboxone.
Donna Price Maybe you could see this video? I’m down to 1.75 MG You went from 2 mg to 1 mg . ?very hard . What milligram did you jump out of it. And how was it for you the first two weeks. I’m anxious to get off!!
Man I needed to see this right now. I'm at day 21...officially 3 weeks off subs and the sleep is still MIA and the emotional roller coaster is wild as hell too. But I have not missed a single day of work and seem to be feeling a little better every day. I'm really going to celebrate after my first full night of sleep though haha. Thanks for your videos man...they definitely help!
@@jpeeps76 good shit my guy..ive stopped snorting heroin and started using suboxone trying to cut it all out...im on night number 3, i think..sleep is so shitty im so cold and sweaty and I haven't eaten shit in 72hrs. I'm so emotional dude lol
I just watched a video of a girl who said its been 6 monthes she is still withdrawing and wants to god to let her die already . To hell with these doctors
This does help, It gives me hope this is my second time quitting in this year first time I couldn’t handle the wd and it scared me so I relapsed in March and here it is in June and I am on day 5 going through it mentally I feel fine , I only have soft stool in the morning one time a day I eat usually 2 good meals and fill up with electrolytes lots of water and tea i smoke weed to get rid of the jittery legs I recommend that 100% or a nice hot bath and a joint and some chamomile tea 2-3 cups around 6pm til 9pm , I still haven’t gotten a good nights sleep I’m only on day 5 but so far I’ve been able to keep the physical part down to a minimum . Go for lots of walks even if it takes all you have left in you, workingout and exercise is key to any detoxing . I look forward to the day I get my life back. You don’t realize what you’re doing in your life with subs until you are in the state of mind to quit , it’s taken this long 6 years of my life has been wasted to pills and partying I missed a lot of time and you don’t realize it when the source is plentiful and you’re drowning and thinking everything is okay. Tell me, were you having sex on subs? Nope I haven’t had sex with my wife in over 6 months before I realized what the fuck was happening to me on subs. I’m not so worried about the mental part of this wd I’m worried about my sleep and my health after this. It takes a strong person to go through sub wd and if you make it to day 5 I can say that you can make it to day 10 you’re already peaked in wd physical symptoms you won’t sleep right for weeks and you are going to have soft stool for a month but I do not recommend Imodium due to the fact that it has opiate in it and sticks opiate receptors and you will likely prolonge the wd . Anyhow hope you’re clean, hope we all make it out alive , this man is living proof that it can be done
Hey you ain't lying subs is worse then any opiate I've ever had I try to explain to people around me I'm not me I don't feel like me glad you made it!!!!!
Thank you thank you thank you. I’m at Day 3 or 4 I’m trying to work out to get thru faster. but it’s very difficult so weak. Doing some weights but tread mill hurts my head and body. Suboxone’s the devil, a prison. Got a headache most time. Ij just wanna feel good again.wakeup, exercise and start my day with prayer. That’s a great day. Will it ever happen? Doesn’t seem like it at this early stage. Your videos surely help. Great job
I just hit day 4. In 2 hours I'll officially be 100 hours without anything!!! I feel a bit better today. Went to the store and am slowly doing light housework. Sleeping Maybe 5 hours a night. We can do this!!! Life will become better! Prayers for you! Stay strong and stay focused!
dude i knew at the video of day 5 I said to myself it HASNT EVEN STARTED YET!!! and i know this because i kicked it once and am kicking again after 2 years and my story is very very similar to yours but im just at day 2 with bupe still lingering. My main thing is once the hard part is over the pain to just sleep will have me easily dissolve another sub under my tounge and act as if im tapering guys its ok lol man I seen your video at 1.5 years later and the weight you gained told on itself you stayed sober and I commend you. Drs dont go into much detail when its time to come off it and yes kicking subs suck and My personal opinion is its because it takes the longest to detox from thats all. The severity of it is not as bad as benzos or booze its possible. thanks for your story I hope to make it I really do
This gives me hope. I've been up since 2:00 a.m. I've been tapering. I'm down to fight one for 1.5 of a day + I guess the next step is going down to point five.
I am so thankful that I came across your initial video and now this one! On my first few days right now after 6.5 years. Congrats and thank you to you!
Bro, I think you are a long lost brother or something... I'm on day 12 and it's getting easier but it's still hell... but I'm doing all the things you did with the music and the crying and all the emotional stuff! Congrats on your sobriety bro
Wow it was worse for you than me. How high of a dose were you taking before you jumped off completely? I came off about a 32nd of a mg a day at the very end. A tiny tiny speck of a 2mg strip.
Every single ViDEO is see makes me feel like there is no hope if you stop you want to die . Why stop .then everyone says its worse than heroin or pill withdraw .dam no hope all im doing is ruining my life by getting clean .
No you'll be getting all your everything in your body to start working again unlike being on drugs everything is numb like you're just living but not enjoying life so sober is the way to go.

hunter Green why the hell would you jump off @24mg!?!?!?!?!?! Good luck if you are still going, but jeez why not taper?
Goodbye Suboxone I was on it for 3 years. It took well over a year before I was feeling normal again. It was hell. So I agree with you fully.

Hey did you taper or did you go cold turkey? If so how high was your last dose?
I am so thankful that I came across your initial video and now this one! On my first few days right now after 6.5 years. Congrats and thank you to you!
Really great job man! Proud of you.
Bro, I think you are a long lost brother or something... I'm on day 12 and it's getting easier but it's still hell... but I'm doing all the things you did with the music and the crying and all the emotional stuff! Congrats on your sobriety bro
Congrats bro👍🏻
Keep trukn I been hiking and rock climbing since day 2 wd and just exhaust myself. Stopped at 4mg you just gotta want it bad.
wow! so freaking scary! did you quit cold turkey? taper?
i am about to jump!
this helped a lot man thank you
Hey I don't think you said what did you stop at was it 8mg or did you taper down so many say drop down to 2mg
1loneheart people cut down to .25 mg and still go through hell
1loneheart Taper slowly and you can get off of it.
Matt Smith , no
I appreciate this.
I don’t see the old video. What dose was he at when he came off?
Im on day 10 of withdrawl but I already feel mostly normal, aside from crazy restlessness and no sleep
It's amazing how many people want off this crap. That tells you how bad it is.
I live in mass thank god weed is legal. That’s how I got through that shit. It’s not easy
Wow it was worse for you than me. How high of a dose were you taking before you jumped off completely? I came off about a 32nd of a mg a day at the very end. A tiny tiny speck of a 2mg strip.
Mental WD of subs are the worst of everything and they last who knows how long
Thanks brother
How are you now?... On anything at all as well or totally free?
Holy fuck 1.5 years later man I'm never getting clean
Did you tapper down? Like from 8mg a day down to 2mg?
Hell of a job bro!
Well done my friend
Every single ViDEO is see makes me feel like there is no hope if you stop you want to die . Why stop .then everyone says its worse than heroin or pill withdraw .dam no hope all im doing is ruining my life by getting clean .

Just curious are you still off the subs?
Fuck yeah!!! Good good job!

You got a taper down get down to 8 mg you can do it. Do not do cold turkey from that amount.
What mg u jump at?
Nice job
Good for you
Fan Fucking Tastic!!!!!
BOSS!
Inspired. soon...
