You are still so early into it, I dont thing you prolonged anything. Since suboxone has such a long half life, you don't really start feeling the w/d til days 4, 5 and 6. I didn't really start feeling terrible til day 5, I am not going to sugarcoat this for you, but it does get worse after that, but its doable and depends on a lot of factors, like your overall health, age, environment, and support system, as soon I felt good enough I got into an addiction therapist and it is a huge help, you may want to go the NA route, not for me, but maybe good for you. What helped me the most was talking to people that have been through it and came out the other side. There is no magic number on how long it will last, and when I first came on here, I was searching for that number because I was scared and in pain, physically and emotionally. So keep it up it gets so much easier, you are in the hard part right now, every day that goes by will make it easier to deal with, Im to the point now where I forget how many days Ive been clean until I log on and look at my tracker. You can do this, I was talking to a friend on here and just imagine how much worse your life could be, and it puts it all in perspective. Keep it up, youre doing wonderfully, and you toook that first step, which is the hardest. Much Love to you and your family! XX. C

That should be good news for you, but everyone is different and our bodies and minds are not all the same. I feel pretty positive for you, though, that is not much and you were not on it more than a year. Stay healthy, hydrated, and positive! Its temporary, always remember that. XX.C.

hey there...I am currently on day 36 of stopping subutex, same as suboxone without the naltrexone. The first two weeks seemed the hardest for me. I jumped at 8mgs. I still feel a lack of energy but overall not too bad. What helped was getting on some herbs, vitamins, and also immodium as needed. As scarrieanne said, the Thomas recipe is a great place to start. When you quit a drug you have to really want to, I think that's the key to success. Each week, day that passes you feel better. Take care and you got this, we're all here to help :)
