Subutex withdrawal

I HAVE BEEN ON SUBUTEX FOR THE LAST 8 YEARS BUT RECENTLY I LOST MY JOB AND COULD NOT AFFORD TO BUY THEM ANYMORE . FOR THE LAST 3 DAYS I HAVE HAD NOTHING AND IT''S GETTING TO THE STAGE WHERE I WILL DO JUST ABOUT ANYTHING TO STOP THE PAIN AND SUFFERING . I REALISE THIS IS ALL A NIGHTMARE OF MY OWN MAKING BUT AT THIS POINT THAT'S NOT HELPING ME . I AM ABOUT TO BE EVICTED FROM MY FLAT , I HAVE NO FAMILY , I HAVE NO MONEY , WHAT CAN I DO ? . I MUST ALSO SAY THAT I HAVE A RATHER BAD CRIMINAL PAST . AS WELL AS BEING A CONVICTED MURDERER , I AM ALSO A CONVICTED ARMED ROBBER AND I'M REALLY SCARED I'M GOING TO DO SOMETHING . PLEASE SOMEBODY HELP ME .

Hello there.

Okay, for starters...you MUST seek help immediately ASAP if you're questioning what you might do.  Seriously, while I understand you feel horrible, the answer isn't to do anything rash.  There ARE options...how about an inpatient detox?  There are some state run facilities that you may be eligible for.  Start calling around, or head to the ER and ask for help.  

What dose of the subs did you come off at?

Hang in there...I'm sure it's rough, but you have to try to maintain your composure.  ANY questions at all about what your thinking...and you get yourself help STAT, ok?

What part of the world are you from? Have you tried the ER to see if they can do anything for you. I'm not very familiar with subutex, but I'm sure someone more knowledgable will be around shortly. In the mean time hold fast and don't go anything you will regret....
