Suboxone withdrawl

[Justin807]

I posted a question last week about me f'n around with suboxone and reallized I was playing with fire - My situation is a little complicated - I just started Effexor ER75 4 weeks ago, and just lately have been having unbearable panic attacks and other awful synptoms - aggitation, disociation, ect.  I did sb (1/4 tab/day) for two weeks and know I'm in withdrawl and that's mixing with the effects of the effexor and making me a terrible mess - I called my doc this morning (haven't mentioned the sb) and their question to me was "what's happened in the last week to cause this? - a week ago you were doing great" - I can't tell them -I just have to suffer through this one on my own and never whammy myself like that again.  The doc doubled my klonopin dose up to 1mg/3x/day - Hopefully that'll make this bearable - How long should I expect the sb withdrawls (after such a short stretch of use) to last.  I'm a recovered heroin/methadone addict - 5yrs, and it's just the way the addict brain works - always making stupid irrational selfdestructive choices.  I just want to feel "normal" again.

I only did the sub for let's say a month(was opiate free for years before - yes I slipped), but I also just started effexor at the same time, so I don't know if the sub glossed over all the initial bad effects of the effexor.  I think that now I'm having anxiety from the effexor, combined with sub withdrawl.  Been off the sub for 5 days now - My doc doubled my konopin up to 3mg/day today and plans on seeing me Thursday to discontinue the effexor - That drug is crazy.  You may be right about the pot to a point - I did have some right before beginning this post and feel nice and calm.  I just feel like a total mess - This week I'm kicking sub while being whammied by effexor, and next week I'll be all f'ed up kick'n effexor.

ur anxeity is coming from stopping the pot. i would suggest not to get on the effexor., it has hella w/d symptoms. that are horrible. how long ubeen on sub?

one more piece of the puzzle I was doing the sub right when I started the effexor, so maybe the sub just glossed over bad reactions I was having in the begining.  to - BMac - yes I know all about benzos and opiates - Benzos mega intensify opiates and being a sick and twisted addict I used to like that - I'd take my evening klonopin dose (while I was on sub) and an hour later be nodding out with my face on my dinner plate.  Fortunately I have no more sub and just want to get through whatever withdrawls and get back to normal.  Before the slip with sub last month I'd been clean for a long time - don't even drink (2yrs), just smoke lots of pot and I decided to stop that ct too - but damn I want to pack a bowl right now and just get zombified and numb.

watch doubling ur klonopin dose while taking the subonoxe. Benzos and suboxone milk like coke and luke warm water.
