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

  3. B @ bigblueallda: @drjimmy1964 lol I am actually surprised it is a real ID. I needed those documents because my license had been expired for over a year and I had to start all over. Nothing was in the system. It was a huge mess. I had no clue I was signing up for Real ID. They asked me for the exact same documents that I needed for a State ID Card.
  4. S @ soupson: bless your heart buddy. no sense of grammar or proper insults/jokes. you need this place in ways i can’t comprehend
  5. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: Sweet Ol' Me asked about Real ID, Stoup. Are you responsive to emails ? LMAO
  6. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: I smell some Stoup. Is Stoup's on ?
  7. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @bigblueallda You win. I am lost. Thought you were surprised your license was a Real ID, now you say you provided those items.
  8. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @bigblueallda I was under the impression that you'd need all of the points to get a real ID . I'd check it's validity if you're gonna fly domestic any time soon, just to make sure. Not to tell you what to do, sorry -
  9. B @ bigblueallda: @drjimmy1964 In my state to get a Real ID, I need SS card, Birth Certificate and two proofs of residency. Which I am positive I had to provide to get a new ID when it had been expired.
  10. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @Turbo259 advertising - putting in writing for example an negative action to show they are guilty prior to taking action.
  11. B @ bigblueallda: I haven't flown in an airplane in 20 years lol. Can't recall the last government building I have been in either. According to the symbol it tells me I should have on my ID to make it a Real ID I do have one in my state

  14. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @bigblueallda are you sure you have a Real ID ? I mean , they really want 6 points of proof and 1 for your addy and 1 for your SSN. Did you maybe get it done and forgot and flew out of the country or something ?

  16. S @ soupson: did anyone ask about real id or is sweet ol jimmy just rambling
  17. T @ Turbo259: @drjimmy1964 what did you mean by advertise? not gettin the verbiage, DM works if anything, just didnt understand
  18. B @ bigblueallda: {Visit your local Driver Service Bureau with the necessary documents: original birth certificate, Social Security card, and two proofs of your state's residency. } I definitely provided this when I had to get a new ID when i let mine go expired too long maybe I unknowingly got one but I think it is pretty standard here.
  19. B @ bigblueallda: Well it was a state id renewal. Before that there was a mixup and I had lost my birth certficate and social security number. After a couple of weeks and finally getting several documents in order I was able to get a state ID. It had been expired previously for a little too long and they wanted all kinds of proof. It was a mess. But nah I looked up what to look for an my state's ID to see if it is a Real Id or not and my card as the symbol it is supposed to have. I'll take a closer look though
