suboxone detox day 7 - hardest day

4 hours a night I would say is a blessing during the detox. I believe a lot of people go without any sleep for days. But everyone's different

I jumped off at 24 mg cold turkey. I’m day 32 now. I only had one night of no sleep. Day 1-4 nothing. 4-7 started to feel symptoms of withdrawal. 7-11 were the worst. The stomach pain, leg pain and arm pain sucked so bad. I have worked through this whole thing. No comfort meds at all. I don’t drink or smoke or do recreational drugs out side of pills. My wife did know I was gonna go through this. Hot baths and ice baths help more than anything. I would ice in the morning and hot at night. It was the only way I could sleep. An when people say get up and move. It really helps. If you can afford it. I got IV fluids. Call the place tell them you want a hang over bag. That helped. I still have no energy. I do have ups and down. But, energy still isn’t back. Leg pains and arm pains are finally starting to go away. Never give up and everyone can do this…. I’m praying for everyone.

I know the feeling of falling asleep and waking up every few hours and trying to force urself to sleep.When I would withdrawal I'd get hot flashes like crazy .So uncomfortable.But u got this man!Keep chipping away!

This video diary is a great idea

Im on day 3... Its starting as in feeling cold. Then i couldn't wake up like i normally do. The sweating while cold sucks... I find you as an inspiration. Without your videos i would not be able to get through the shit

I've went up to 10-12 days several times and the anxiety was what got to me. I'm doing a slow tapper this time and get to a very low dose before i just and actually get to where in taking every other day and then every third day before i jump this time. I know what's coming and I'm getting ready

Not sleeping is the worse

You’re right-biggest thing is wondering if we’re going to sleep again.. which we know we will but it’s WHEN???!!! lol gotta laugh about it cause can’t do anything else so might as well laugh

lol ya I hated when I felt like walking/being active and its 2-3am! Sleep is a killer for many going through it. at least you can focus on games. First few days I couldn't but it only get better you almost there. keep it going never quit never fail! making videos, and watching them help. remember up to 72 hours before full withdrawal kicks in. I would have to say my day 5-7 was the worst. then got better , and better. Vit B complex. all that adrenaline hitting you that been shut off. keep up the positive self talk, motivate yourself through the b,s!

Hey brother, I’m sorry your day 7 wasn’t great. By the time you are reading this it will be day 8 though. These things are going to happen man, it’s a speed bump that will pass bro. I’m glad you went to an NA meeting. The stupid thing about suboxone is that bc your body is going thru wd, it amplifies all the other feelings. Maybe it was suboxone, maybe you were just tired af and the lack of sleep hit you hard. Your friends texting you to check up is awesome. You’re doing great brother, don’t let this get you down. There is no more suboxone in your system. It’s gone. Your body is healing brother and so glad you didn’t have any cravings. Stay strong. Last thing I will say is about the benzos. I know you were on a low dose but that stuff is a double edged sword. It helps you sleep but also causes depression. You WILL sleep good again! It’s coming brother. Hang in there and it’s near. God is walking with you. I’m praying for you too 🙏

Force yourself to eat!!

I’ve come off of suboxone a handful of times. Insanity at its finest. Everyone EXCEPT MY LAST was absolutely brutal at the 7day mark. The last time I had weened way down and had been on 1mg for a couple of months until my last two weeks when I just took less and less almost everyday. But hanging on the last few days until April 14 2023! NO MORE! Never again! I’ve started to wake up between 3am-5am every morning. I learned exercise was rough but vital. Here I am on kratom. WORST IDEA EVERRRRRR. 😂 today is day one no kratom, killin itttt. Struggling with sweating, emotions, and restless. I found that Tylenol PM was a god send for a bit

dude I literally just went into the kitchen as this was playing and pulled out my recipe book to look for the banana bread recipe and then you said banana bread hahahaha

If today is the “WORST” day, the previous days were vacations!

I know it has been years but when did you jump off? I have been titrating, and I am at .15 to .25 every 12 to 14 hours but think tonight I can jump. Why? Surgery this Thursday in 4 days. My fear is the pain after and I'd like to go off in clean. I am sure residual will remain as I hope to stay away at least 4 days prior. My doc will give me dilaudid for pain after. Hope it help.

On nights like this you need some kratom. Im on day 12 and it's been easy. Slept every night and work everyday. I tried to stop so many time even with kratom I always fail. This time I tapered down. Seem to do the trick. Planning to mega dose vitamin c to get off the kratom.

They don't even work for me anymore so it made getting off them a lot easier lol. Feels like I'm in a low level withdrawal 24/7. Keep hearing how they just make you feel normal and not high. I wish they made me just feel "normal." Ot's also staggering the amount of users who sell their script. Yeah they just want to get high etc..but it's obviously not doing much for their cravings. It's ridiculous how many doctors want to shove subs down your throat for addicition recovery. I hear the positives are you have a lot more freedom on subs, only have to go once a month etc..Well, going to the store and getting advil is a lot easier than acquiring vicodin but it doesn't make it superior. I've did the sub rodeo in 2008 and then again in 2018. The longer I've been in this game the less effective they became. I find them worthless to stave off withdrawal even if I wanted to use. Don't even do that anymore.

Lol i spent 7 days with no sleep. In hell during 3 different detoxes i didnt sleep for the first 7 days

How are you doing today man?

It takes 12 days fir all the suboxone to be gone.
