Suboxone

[Chasenchristy]

ok, it's chase and i took my last roxi at 7:15pm. christy isdown to 1 mg of Soboxone. I need to wait as long as i can before i take the suboxone so that i dont get precipitated w/d. i have been taking about 15-20 roxo's /dayso i think it will take at least 24 hrs before i take the suboxone. i have a very high tolorance and dont want to take it too soon. i think if i wait as long as possible it will work better than it didi before when weboth started andwaited about 14 hrs. we were both so so sick, couldnt even walk the dog. so i have to get strong and do this or i will lose my job and i dont want to do that. i am affraid of what people will say when i go back but i will just have to suck it up right? so wish me luck and when i can i will post and hopefully christy will post if there is any problems. thanks for everything.

Hello All... This is Christy. I just got out of a very long hot shower. Chase is asleep on the couch and thought I would take a long shower tonight, since the next one(if there is one) in the next two days will probally be very short, or have him in there helping him..... He is so scared. I tried to tell him if I can do this ANYONE can do this. I am so so weak. I took my 1 mg of Sub. today, I broke out in cold /hot sweats only twice today, other than being so so very lethargic I feel pretty damn good. I did take an ephedrine pill and went running(I only ran for 5 minutes) then walked, but hey...Beter than nothing. Pre pill days I ran 5 miles a day...I called it my group thearapy ( Ha ha!).....I am scared that I am not strong enough yet to care for him the best I know I can, but I am going to have to be strong for both of us as he was for us. I am jealouse he had the Blue Devil there to help him through my long nights, but now I see that I really should not be jealouse because he has a long way to go, and I am done with the worst :). I feel like I overcame a big milestone yesterday when I laid that blue line out and walked away from it. I wish that I did not go even that far......But since then I am not thinking about them at all...... I wonder does that go away?. I think maybe its like when someone close to you dies, you think about nothing but that at first, but as time goes bye, one day you realize you went a whole day without thinking about them, then a week........I hope and pray it is like that. As long as Chase and I have each other I feel we will conquer this demon that spun its way so so deep into our lives........... I will update. Thank you all so much for how much you care and for your prayers..... I will try to post like chase did...Christy

good luck to you!  i've been using the suboxone since april and i love it .. for me it was what was going to work for me ... it actually saved me!  god only knew when that one day was going to come that that one last pill was the one that was going to do me in ... i didn't want that to happen for my kids and husband ... thank god he has been sooo supportive. he doesn't understand addiction, he can take a vike and doesn't get the feeling you or i do ... but nevertheless he has totally been there for me ... as you have for your girlfriend.  i love reading your posts, most interesting ... are you doing a rapid detox?  personally i've been on them since april .. i know some on here don't agree w/that but oh well .. someone else had suggested checking out this website, have you seen it?  www.naabt.org ... it's pretty awesome .. lots of cool info out there.  they were also stating on there that some people do need suboxone for long term use depending on how long and how much they were using ... good luck to you again!  pls keep everyone updated on your recovery. peace + love = happiness ........ that is so true!!!   i've found love and peace w/in myself and how i'm the happiest i've been in a long long time ... and it FEELS GREAT!!!

Good luck to you. I don't personally have any experience with sub, but many on here do. If you need anything, please don't hesitate to post and ask. If I can help, I will. God bless you both on this journey.
