Just went throgh a 4-day Tram detox

I've been taking tramadol for about four years now and I finally decided to go through detox.
I went into the hospital on Saturday morning and just got home this morning. On the first day they gave me 8mg of suboxine. Then before I went to bed they gave me 4mg. The next day they lowered it to 2mg three times daily. I took my last 2mg of suboxine about 24 hours ago. So far I'm feeling good, no horrible withdrawal symptoms.
So I wanted to know if anyone knows what happens next. Should I expect bad symptoms? And my anxiety is especially high. Should ask my doctor about puting me on a low-dose of Trazodone?

I'm glad you made it off that horrible drug. Don't worry about trazadone, it's not such a good drug either, kinda worthless with a nasty side effect possible

Thank you so much. I'll give a call around tomorrow and find out if I can get a weeks worth, if not for my anxiety than for my much needed sleep.

Thanks everyone!

It works great but it too can be addictive. I would recommend it for the next few days. It helped me to relax and get sleep during the first week and a half.

Thanks, I was thinking about doing that. I am a little nervous that I'll get hooked on that though. I've been taking velerian root but it really only works for five minutes after I've taken it.

For anxiety I would ask for a low-dose of Trazadone, especially at night.  I have only taken the tramadol a couple of times, I do know the tramadol affected my brain in a bad way so I just didn't take it.  I do know about the trazadone as I take it at night.  It works great for me.
