Have 0 energy, any suggestions

I’m sure. I just ask because it has been a life saver for me and you can start at a very low dose to curb your withdrawals and be slowly weaned from them. It’s jyst a more controlled taper and you don’t have to feel quite as miserable. It depends though on how bad your addiction to opiates is/was. You may do better continuing to wean as you are. But just know that is out there as an option (depending on your insurance or access to it). Lots of different feelings/experiences but for me it has been a God send. I had to be able to function for  my 3 kids.....

That’s great, so happy for you, was doing up to 8, 7.5 a day, had to stop, was getting out of control, still have to get the energy up Togo to work everyday, will get some counseling/some kind of help very soon, there’s no other option for me but to quit permanently!! TY for your response!

Have you considered Suboxone?

I’ve actually read many responses from people to try and stay off of that
