tonight my fiancee and i quit using oxycontin(about 250mg for me and 150mg a day for her for the last three months) . We have lost much and are on the brink of losing all. Eight years ago i was addicted to herion and crack but a conbination of jail time , na, aa , family support, and most of all God saved me and gave me years and years of sobriety excluding drinking which never in the least tempted me to use again. In januarry I was in a severe car accident which left me in a coma for a month and most of it was drug induced. I had pain and started using percs to control it and got carried away into patches but utilized my prior knowledge to go through being sick and being sober again for a couple months until i gave in to some pain and discovered oxy.I began shooting it like back in the day and well here i am thousands of dollars later on the brink in despair. I am ready and prepared to be done but I have an idea which im not sure is a dope feind one or not. I need your help on this. The sickness is always to hard on me and ive felt so hopeless against it lately that i checked into a meth clinic but when they gave me the drink i spilled it on mself on purpose and left never to return about a week ago. I was going to do it for three days to help with sickness of coming off oxy. Well, now this is my plan.... I ran across some suboxone and they only had seven eight mg tabs. I plan on doing one for each of us tomorrow and the dayh after. then breaking them in half and doing four days of halves, then breaking the last one into quarters and doing a quarter a day for last two day. Basically an eight day rapid taper on sub, not enough sub to get addicted to sub but long enough for oxy to get out of system. besides the mental effects and dealing with this do you think that physically that could work? If someone could respond quickly i would really appreciate it. thanks friends
