WOW, you made my detox look so much harder.

I found the transition between Methadone and Subutex horrible. I hated the clearness in my head. I hated the fact that I had to cluck for 2 days before taking my first tablet of subutex and when I did, I went straight into withdrawel.

I was in agony. Total AGONY.

I have tried Subutext now on 3 perhaps 4 occasions and each time I felt like total crap.

I really do sympathise with you my ex was the same as you,just found it so hard.What dose were you on when you tried the change over,how many years have you been on meth and when was the last time u tried h or do u do any other drugs…..lots of things can make a big difference to your own personal success with subutex,excellent drug to detox from h if used properly.Would love to chat maybe we can help each other,im still buzzin,gettin high from just bein straight….fuk never thought id say that

Just thought id add quick update on how im gettin on,Not been feelin too bad but can definatelly feel the meth comin outa me now,feel a little bit more strung out as the days pass,have stopped takin the valise cause i know if i dont im gonna have another addiction to battle,hard cause they were def what made the transition so much more bearable,hard when i kn0ow i can go get some as easy as a pint of milk but AM NOT gonna go back with this shit this time.Its like slowly waking up from some calm bimmble through life 4 10 years,feel emotions had forgotten about,realised im not such a cold hearted cow as i thought i was,thats nice,but also seem to cry alot at mo n that aint good,luckily im goin through the menopause(well early)so just blame it on that when someone catches me blubberin into me Kleenex.Physically im starting to feel aches n pains i aint felt for long time,thats the meth comin out aswell cause each night i feel little worse little earlier,hopefully that will level out after about a month i hope.But on a scale of 1 to 10 n 10 bein the dogs bollocks spose im at 6 at mo so onwards n upwards….n thanks to those of u who have posted a note,they are a real source of comfort to me as no one knows whats goin on in my life i do feel well alone,thanksxxxxx

just keep in mind all your long term goals and how far you have already come when it gets you down, :love:

I’m sure you know but regular ibruprofen for the aches, and buscopan for cramps over the reduction period and for a week or so afterwards – may help just take the edge off now you stopped the vallies,

if your sleep suffering maybe worth talking to your prescriber for some short term non addictive help other then benzo’s, coz if your struggeling last thing you need is not to be sleeping also

keep us posted with your progress hon :group_hug

Hiya not been on here for couple days as cant say im feelin very energetic,this mornin was probably the worst ive felt when waking up,was sneezin alot with runny nose(withdrawl signs for those who dont know),counted back the days and this is when roughly most of the methadone should be comin outa my body so maybe thats why,god knows,this whole experience is such an eye opener to me,what i think is gonna happen n what actually ens up happenin are to totally different things.Its not as if aint done this before,but must admit the other 2 times i was always dabblin with the h as well as tryin to detox:crazy:Anyway enough of the moanin shit….on the positive side i actually have an appetite which is nice,expensive but nice lol.
Anyone who has ever been a junkie will know that your sex drive just up and leaves you,one day its there the next,bam,fukin gone.Your mind is still wanting it but your body just has no idea what the fuk has happened,well the other day……n im tellin you this is the best thing thats happened so far,i actually felt horny….im sure now most of you are wonderin why the fuk im tellin you this..well the reason why is that it is a damn sure sign
that my body is startin to return to normal which is pretty damn cool:wink:
So i can honestly say that the positives are starting to far outway the negatives,which is bloomin marvelous
On the medication side i was hoping to start my 36 day reducer this Tuesday gone but after talkin to doc n councillor decided to wait another 2 weeks n just stay at 8ml so that i level out a bit,think in my mind was tryin to rush it all abit,…u know that feelin when u see the finishin line n u just wanna get there asap regardless of the hurdles,all well and good but the hurdle just happens to be my health and my body dont seem to be up to doin any bargaining with me at mo which is fair enough considering how much ive abused it over the years,so gonns slow the pace down,start enjoyin all these nice feelins that are startin to return:wink:
Life is becoming SWEET!!!!!!xxDDD

so glad to hear this :group_hug:group_hug

and as you say there is no point rushing it – take it easy and at a pace that you are comfortable with,

the end is in sight :bounce_fl:bounce_fl:bounce_fl:bounce_fl
