I apologize in advance for the double post. I replied to a Suboxone topic with this same topic; but in the interest of getting a response as quickly as possible I wanted to create a thread as well. 

I have a question and need some help. 😵 I think I did something stupid. 

A while ago I was given some 8 mg Suboxone films from a friend. I normally take 10 mg of oxycodone (or percocet) for chronic leg pain on a very regular basis (1 pill a day about 2-3 times per week). I'm currently out of the oxycodone so I (stupidly!) tried the Suboxone film tonight which I've never touched before. I cut it into 3 pieces so I ended up taking what was about 6 mg instead of the full 8 and put it under my tongue. This was about 4 hours ago...

I'm not feeling great. At first I felt kind of nice. Now not so much. I've got the typical signs and symptoms of an opiate; like pinpoint pupils, kinda warm and fuzzy/floaty, but I'm also just really drowsy like I want to fall asleep every time I close my eyes and I'm a little nauseated, dry mouth ect. Is this normal? Or have I taken some absurdly large dose of this shit and need to be worried? Any advice would be appreciated. Right now I'm scared to let myself fall asleep. I'd rather not panic if it's not warranted. How long do the effects of a single dose normally last? 😨

 
Assuming that was the only substance you have taken today, what I've just researched, you should be fine. Although you did take a fair amount as the "reccomended" recreational dose without tolerance is 1-2mg. Am seeing a 37hour half life.

 
Just an update. It was 24 hours until I felt ok. Then 48 when I began feeling normal and pupils became normal and felt more like myself. Just in case anyone has a similar question or experience. Use as directed and with caution.

I know this is old but I did this too a couple years ago. I also don’t take more than 10mg at a time of pain meds and ONLY take them orally. So, I guess I am probably intolerant.  But, I only took 2 mg and that was still too much for me!! I was soooo incredibly sleepy and felt like crap! I was also afraid to sleep so I basically kept walking from one room to the other then to kitchen then restroom making myself as busy as possible. It was awful! I did this for hours! 
My friend who had suggested me to try was in disbelief and anyone else that is on sub also acts like they never heard of such a thing. They all get energy! So glad you posted because I thought it was just me having a weird reaction or something.

 
@DJH-Krazy Nope, definitely not just you. I'm glad my post helped! It was a horrible experience for me. I walked around, tried to watch tv, even went and sat in my car for a minute just to keep myself occupied so I wouldn't fall asleep until I thought it was "safe" to go to sleep and even then I didn't sleep properly. From someone who takes a 10 mg dose of oxy regularly I was shocked it had that effect and quite frankly I was scared. 

 
Reminds me of when oxycontin first came on the scene, and the first time I ever took it,  broke off what I assumed was a "small" dose ( I was also used to 10mg percs or hydro) and yeah... I was so fucked up I stayed up all night walking around the house because I felt like if I closed my eyes I would never wake up.  it SUCKED

  1. ontovzik @ ontovzik: When I had long term shingles, lasting two months. All he could give me was a 10 day supply of dilaudid. He looked at the ground while we were talking about it. I could tell he was ashamed but it was the legislature and the governor that tied his hands. He was very upset that non-medical political people, the media, and the scared public were controlling how he treated his patients. Someday those people will need meds and a hospital bed and they will be gone.
  2. ontovzik @ ontovzik: I had a great doctor, he had the true gift of a healer and he stayed on top of all the science. He straight up told me that for many people opiods work for managing short and long term pain.
  3. ontovzik @ ontovzik: He peed it in the snow in my backyard.
  4. WTF7218 @ WTF7218: @xenxra 😆😂. Yes, but only a few brave souls will ever find the number. You must first order a Dirty Shirley from the bartender. Then you must discreetly take the cocktail napkin from under your drink and unfold it. There you will find the map to the location of the phone number, and clues to decipher the code that it is written in.
  5. xenxra @ xenxra: he left his phone number scribbled in a stall at the pub three blocks down
  6. aBBazaBBa123 @ aBBazaBBa123: @rockychoc How do I contact you?
  7. N @ NYStateofMind: @Alkazar I would try one of those easy online ones .. reddit gives useful info about that
  8. Alkazar @ Alkazar: @NYStateofMind I dont really have a history of abusing things, my docotr is just really stingy. I am thinking of switching.
  9. C @ Cheesus: Thanks xenxra
  10. xenxra @ xenxra: @Cheesus yeah, use snote
  11. P @ psychedpsych: Trump is cracking down….
  12. P @ psychedpsych: Hackers are the scum of the earth
  13. N @ NYStateofMind: so it was easy bc of my history
  14. N @ NYStateofMind: I didnt really tell him but he knew I needed a new script since my dr went to jail
  15. N @ NYStateofMind: @xenxra I was on Adderall since 15 years ago so my dr prescribed that w no problems and then when I lost my best friend my doctor rxed the valiums but
  16. C @ Cheesus: Temp.pm down for anyone else?
  17. xenxra @ xenxra: @NYStateofMind my doctor's have always been pretty open minded if i can actually come in and explain the pharmacological action of the drugs im seeking instead of just telling them why i think i should be prescribed. the only time it didn't work out for me is when i was trying pharmaceuticals for depression ten years ago and suggested they let me try testosterone instead (turns out i was hypogonadal so they made a mistake denying my request at face value)
  18. T @ Testisthebest: Even down here in Florida when the pill mill docs all switched over to Suboxone and/or retired you can still find some pretty liberal docs but you gotta know what to look for. Mine does "pain management, detox, anxiety,etc. And no insurance. My doc writes me 60 5mg Valium, 14 2mg Xanax and asked if I had ever tried adderal to get more focus at work as I told him I run my own business.
  19. N @ NYStateofMind: @Alkazar do they know your history? Like I dont tell my doctor anything about myself except what they need to know,...I was able to get my dr to rx the highest dose of adderall along with valiums ..... if they dont know your history or there is no history I would just come out and ask what is the reason for their mistreatment.... they have no problem billing your insurance or taking a payment for the visit
  20. T @ Turbo259: @Layne_Cobain Thank you fam
