Two weeks clean somebody please help!

Question

I am two weeks clean and using suboxone. I am still going through withdraw and it *****. I have really only had a couple of bad days that were days apart. The last week and a half I have been busy all day and night cleaning my whole house top to bottom with a tooth brush even. Never mind the dishes and laundry. Prior to this I was trying to wean and ended up in the hospital. Anyways that's what happens when a mom is out of commission in her home. Catching up weeks worth of cleaning *****. So my biggest concerns so far are that I have not had a bowel movement in two weeks, I can barely go to the bathroom and emptying my bladder is difficult I have to force myself to pee. Oh and don't get me started on no sexual function at all.

Okay to my terrible night last night, I was in bed by 9pm. I awoke at 2am and went to sit up and immediately laid my head back down because I was violently disoriented, dizzy and my vision would not stay focused. My eyes were darting everywhere and I could barely breath right. So I closed my eyes and dragged myself on my hands and knees to the bathroom. I took my suboxone and sat and forced myself to pee as much as I could. After I was done I went limp and basically tumbled to the bathroom floor where I laid with my eyes close crying because I was violently still disoriented, now shaking and having very cold sweats, and my eyes were still darting everywhere. I must have fallen asleep for about a hour because when I woke my symptoms had lessened significantly and I was able to get back to bed. Now I am only a little nauseated and disoriented. My vision is for the most part stable and thank god I see my psychologist for my mental illnesses and my psychologist for my suboxone! Because a person should not go for two weeks with no bowel movements and over the counter things like laxatives and what not should work however they don't. Ulgh someone pray for me please! Someone needs to do something to do thats for sure. I can not have another night of this h*ll.

Any support and possibly anyone gone through anything like this? Please lend me your ear and your words!

Actually I found out that one of the medicines I take called Dicyclimine and it reacts to suboxone. Now after that med is out of my body I am MUCH better!

I agree with pitbullmom. I'm on subs and the bowl thing is a problem. You may be on too low a dose, or take them irregularly, we need more info. Some people have reaction to nalaxone. As far as the withdrawal symptoms, I took an extra 8mg one day and two nights later I began feeling the same way I did when I ran out of my pills. My doc said to find an amount and time and stick to it. He didn' tell me how much or when, but find what feels okay. He said not to just take them when I feel like I need it or it will cause all these weird withdrawal symptoms. As an addict I had to learn the hard way. I went back to a schedule and have stabilized. I just deviated by 8mg for one day. Also, I'm taking vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and b vitamins. It has really helped. It also sounds like you are pushing yourself with all the cleaning and such. Addicts are malnourished in our brains as a rule. All that exertion is okay, but I feel extra nutrition might help you heal in the long run and feel a little better for now. I read the Thomas Recipe and Amino Acid Protocol at the bottom of this page and bought what was available in our little mountain town. My wife noticed a difference in me within two days.  I'm glad to hear  you have after care as well. That seems to keep me focused and gives me something to look forward to. I hope this helps in some way and keep us posted.

No sub experience but for stomach not moving things along, have you tried magnesium nitrate ? Its a saline based drink. Costs 2 bucks works every time and actually dont taste bad. It looks like grape or cherry soda. Any drug store or grocery,,,,
