How long will my subutex withdrawal last?

[sevenwords]

I have been on 8 MG of Subutex (not suboxone) for about 7 weeks.. I am going to stop cold turkey tomorrow. Does anyone know how long my withdrawal will last and how bad it will be? I have heard withdrawal from Sub is milder than say.. vicodin or oxy.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks!

     Hello ! I've read  that Suboxone can stay in your system for 3 days,but tiny amounts can be detected up to 10 .

  I have been on subutex for nearly 5 yrs ! I do not recommend anyone withdrawing on your own ! I've had to go without several times due to financial problems , stolen meds etc . The first 3 days without were ok , then the insomnia and sneezing w/chills sets in !Then you cant move , going to the bathroom ,brushing your teeth showering becomes hard after day five! Mentally you are falling to pieces . Hoping and praying someone will come to your rescue , after a week .I then turned to alcohol to try to sleep and get some kind of peace . You lie there trying to fall asleep and all that happens is thinking about everything . I just started to lose it . I threw my head into a wall ,started feeling suicidal and just thought , I cant take this one more hour !! Fortunately I found a perc in a Tylenol bottle in the back of my drawer , I cried and thanked God that this will buy me sometime to get to a DR ! Thankfully my Mom was willing to pay to help me

I was on 8mg then for 2 days before I stopped I sniffed 2.8mg a day over 2 days to put my body in to shock then totally stopped I'm on my 4th day now still feel rough but I have been jogging twice on the 3rd day and today. I feel today or tomorrow I will be over the worst I have been on meds for 2 and a half years I have come down from 85ml methadone so you wont be too bad just don't give up.

Have you done it yet?

You can do it. I was on methadone for 5 years after coming off a massive heroine addiction, and have been on the Subutex for almost a year. I started at 16 mgs and have slowly worked my way down to less than 1mg. I am about to start day seven of being completely clean, no Subutex AT ALL... It hasn't been too bad, but i'm still feeling it. on a scale of 1-10 10 being the worst withdrawls I've ever had I would rate it like a 2.5.... My biggest complaint is that I still feel like I'm jumping out of my skin. Also feels like I have a small electrical current running through the top layer of my skin.... can't wait to be done!
