I Want More!

[Jam1976]

@Jessa1976 Congrats on the drop in sub. I've been on it for years and I've been at the point for a while where its just annoying and I want to be rid of it. Docs knew nothing about it when they first started prescribing in my opinion. As far as x@nnies, I agree with @gadorgirl2 and just use the first week to have fun with those then back to your prescribed bnzo. At least this way it should keep your alp tolerance somewhat low and give you something to look forward to during that first week/week and a half  Be Safe!

Thanks! I feel the same way, I transitioned from methadone to Suboxone 2 years ago. I was told it would be an easier detox from subs..  I was down to a 30 mg dose of m-done and think I'd be off by now if I hadn't made the switch.  But who knows. I hear the last mg or so is brutal with subs. I just want off! My new sub doc is a very uptight and controlling. I just want to be free and done! I don't feel ready with the anxiety meds..but regardless of how much I drop on my subs my doc is determined to detox me off all Benzos. Do you think I'd be safe taking Xannies at all? This guy will boot me if I come up dirty even once. Pretty nerve wracking. I have enough sub stashed to get me through 3-4  months. I've even considered trying to detox myself, especially once he cuts my Benzos totally. But I have no idea how hard that would be...it might be a foolish and dangerous idea.

@Jessa1976, I'd be vary wary. If he's a strict M.D. He may call You in for a count of your meds. Or surprise U.A. I'd limit the alp's to A Friday & Saturday night. Try & get in on his earliest Friday appointment. Have your fun, then revert back to the pins. Stock up on those. These U.A.'s are no joke any more w/ all these people mixing & matching & dropping dead from taking either too many vitamins. Or worse, unknown vitamins. Just blindly taking some one's word it's Vitamin C when it's really B-12....RXPRO-

I go in once monthly but who knows, he could call me in for a random. I'll stick with stocking up on gourmet roaches. And yes, I'm pretty darned careful. If a vitamin looks wrong, I won't take it. :..and I keep my prescribed meds on schedule for a random count. I live in a rural area where if I lose my doctor, I'm in deep trouble.

I too came off 25mls of m/done and transfered to sub/one @Jam1976.I was titrated up to 10mg of sub and it took me 2 yrs to get down to 0.2mg of sub/tex but I felt awful trying to come off such a small amount.The long and short of it is I ended up back on m/done as I was depressed,no sleep and just so lethargic!.I'm now trying to wean myself back off m/done but I think I was left on subs for too long and if I did try that route again (unlikely) I'd get up and off as quickly as possible.I don't consider subs to be a maintenance type of med but everyone's different I suppose?.

Peace 

Bliss.....

@ElectroNymph you get m/done in pill form here in the UK also.It's VERY unusual to be prescribed them however and almost ALLWAYS liquid form.The tablets are called physeptone and are 10mg,ive asked loadsa times for them when going on vacation as it's such a PAIN taking the physeptone liquid through customs as you can't take amounts over 100mls in your hand luggage.Of course your SCREWED if your case goes awol along with your fortnights daily m/done amount??.     Peace                                                              Bliss. ...

yes i concur..in uk .if u say u do a lot of travelling u will get physeptone tabs bcuz of the whole liquid thing ....

trust mate ,in my experiance a benzo rattle much worse than a methadone one,,but  bcuz the universe is a bitch and there is always a catch,the benzo one happens quicker, time wise....   what can you do, what can you do ! as joe pesci famously quotes ... ;-)

@advanced35I've yet to be prescribed physeptone tabs after asking well over 20 times because of travelling overseas.I'm signed into an actual me/done clinic but I suspect if your scripted by a surgeries doctor you may well find they're more understanding? .

I used to be on metha tabs and the x's but was taken off and can not find the x's. Was hoping to find some reading on where I could find x's online.  Have not been here long so I'm reading and reading but if someone could steer some reading my way that would be great
