suboxone high feeling

i have been on suboxone for 3 weeks today. i stopped taking oxycontin 160mg - 200 mg a day. i am so weak it is hard for me to get out of bed. could the suboxone bemaking me soo weak?

When I was on suboxone I never got the full body high like I did with oxycontin/norco/percocet, but I for sure did get somewhat of a high, mostly just a boost of energy feeling. For me when I went on suboxone I was coming off methadone and the feeling suboxone gave me was very comparable to the methadone in lower doses. The weird thing was I started at 8mgs and felt fine, later on when I got down to 2mgs and less I actually felt more of a buzz than I did at the higher dose.

First post on this kind of site. I have been taking approx. 40 10\325 norcos a day for the past 5 years, of course I didn't start out taking this amout. I have always had a very high tolerance to vicoden though. I do not use any other drugs, rarely drink at all... I made the decision to talk to a dr. About my problem. I have been detoxing now for 14 hours. Not long I know, but I can't remember the last time I went this long without any..intentionally anyway.

It all started about two years ago, just a 40mg pill once or twice a week. After a couple months it became a daily habit, and here I am. I was up to about 100-120mgs a day. This is hard to write... I never thought I would need a drug just to get through the day. I work and take a few classes so I don't really have the time to quit cold turkey,(the thought of that also scares the hell out of me).

Please consult with the doctor who prescribed the suboxone, you should not be feeling like that 2 1/2 weeks into it. Your dose isn't right, or you may need other meds in addition to the subs right now. It's not normal. Best of luck to you!

I have a question about Suboxone. What would happen if someone would take an opiate (percocet, vicodin, oxycotin...etc.) while being on Suboxone? Does anyone know?

I too remember the high but what sticks in my mind is just taking them to function. No high just pills. Not how I want to live. Mary, you are doing so good. Tae, it's good to see you! I will send you a PM. Gizzy, I hope you are feeling better. Try Ibuprofen, it might just work as well as the pills, really.

Well today is officially day number 3 off of Ophiates and the Suboxone is working like a miracle. I feel good throughout the whole day and I am finally starting think more clearly and feel alot more energetic. I know that I am further than ever before in my recovery and there is no way I can go back to how I was before, that guy is long gone and never coming back. I can't wait to have to old me back where I was happy with normal day activities and life and enjoy living life to love life.

Really xtra tired, upset stomach, just a general blah feeling like maybe you are going to get sick. Is it possible to have a withdraw while on suboxone. I have been clean almost 5 months and while I was still feeling dope sick, I decided to use suboxone. The doctor started me out at 16mg and within a week because I was vomiting I decided to go down on the dose without talking to the doctor. I took my self to 8mg in 2 days. that was about 6days from when I fist started the suboxone.

The key to suboxone is taking just ENOUGH to make you feel NORMAL. Not high. Not sick. But normal. For a user, Normal is an extremely ABnormal feeling.. So be wary of that. All in all you should be ok to work the weekend. Usually the doctor will administer the first dose in office to get you to the proper mgs. My biggest warning about suboxoen at this point, having used it long term and come off of it, is to tell people to work recovery while using it.

Naloxone is probably the culprit causing the stomach problems. Feeling tired is also a sign of taking too high of a dose. 16 mgs is a high dose. I was prescribed 12mg a day and that was way too much. I was nodding out and high as hell. And I had a heavy habit before with oxyys and heroin. So it wasn't that I didn't have a high tolerance to opiates.. What was your son taking before the subs?

my husband went to the cold turkey 3mg of suboxone, he is already a week old, he does not have strong symptoms, but anxiety comes a lot, and he can hardly sleep, he is always watching tv. Does anyone know what she can take to improve mood and anxiety?

Once I got addicted to oxycodone and then found a doctor who put me on Suboxone for detox, I have never gotten high from Suboxone since using it for it's intended purpose of opioid detox.

I have been clean from suboxone since Jan 1st, 2014, and YES, it took about 1 1/2 to 2 days before I started feeling really ******. Your dose seems pretty high ( mine was 24mg ) so not judging....want to make you aware that at some point you should probably consider getting off of these things. As of now, you have 5 months in...the longer you stay on it, the harder it's going to be to get off so keep this in the back of your mind.

t get high on Suboxone but you can get high on Subutex. I think your friend may be getting Subutex, especially if your tried a peice and got high. Were you in withdrawels when you tried it? If not, it would have made you sick. And if your friend is taking the Sub. like hes supose to, he should not be able to get high on other drugs. Subutex can be broken down and shot to get high, which is why most doctors will give Suboxone.

Thanks Michele. I'm very thankful... just a little suspicious. Since my amount of norco wasn't too high, I'm wondering if the suboxone might be a higher dose than the norcos I'm used to taking. I've heard suboxone is way more potent than hydrocodone. If a quarter tab of sub is stronger than my usual dose of norco, I could be going backward instead of forward in this fight.

Hey all. I've been on 35mg methadone for 2 years and have to switch to suboxone for insurance reasons. The suboxone doctor just told me to skip one days worth of dose and come in "withdrawaling"... I'm scared that one day won't be enough and I'll go into precip withdrawals, but I don't want to go into full fledged withdrawal because I know I'll get high to alleviate the feeling and end up losing my job (I've been clean for the entire 2 years). Any tips?

Hi I'm a mom of 3 and became addicted to painkillers 6 years then was introduced to AutoZone from a friend and stayed on those for 3 years without nobody knowing anything but then around 3 years ago I found out I was pregnant with my 3rd child I freaked out cause I didn't have a addiction with my other 2 kids, I broke down and told my husband what was going on then checked out a clinic so stayed with the program my son was born 2 years ago scary thing to watch your son go through withdra

I have been known the be critical of suboxone sometimes, but it did help me get my life under control instead of searching for the next high. But now that I have gone CT and gone down the suboxone route, your gonna w/d the same from both in my expeirence same timetable too for w/d's. I found the roxy w/d's a little esaier I guess because I couldn't go to a doctor to get more and just grit my teeth.

Has anyone ever had any type of breathing problems while taking suboxone? I have been taking Sub for about 7 months and am doing well. The problem is that since I'm weening off of them I am starting to feeling like i can't catch my breath. It is really driving me crazy to have this feeling! I have had a few people tell me it's just anxiety but I don't know what to think?

Hi everybody, I just wanted to share some info about my experience so far using Suboxone. I'm a hydrocodone addict first of all...I was using about 25-28, 10mg's each everyday for about 3 years. I really thought I was never going to be able to stop this crazy drug habit that I created for myself......I tried a few times to taper and quit, only to feel like I was going to die. For real!! I kept hearing about this Suboxone drug and heard all the good and the bad about it.......

I can tell you from personal experience to try suboxone. It has been a life saver, especially if before you use you start exercising everyday and eating better. When you finally decide that you want to stop its very successful.

I was prescribed oxycodone 30mg 5x daily, neurontin 400mg 2x day, kadian 30mg 2x day for chronic lyme disease, 4 herniated discs, pinched nerves, & also had partial laminectomy in 2004 L5-S1. I've been taking them so long my tolerance to the meds is so high they do nothing for my pain. I want to stop taking the meds but I can't do the withdraw. I've heard suboxone is used to get off meds and prevent withdraw but I also heard suboxone is addictive too.

The good news is that the volume of your Suboxone Dependency is not high. The bad news is that you can be sick up to 5-6 weeks getting off Sub. It's the gift that keeps giving. I was, and on a larger amount than you..... I'm now clean after going through HELL. If you really want this, You can do it.............. We are here to support you.

It's OK. I might of taken what you said out of context. I've hard a really stressful day! I'm super pregnant, and SUPER irritated! My feet are swollen up like watermelons and everyone at my work thinks that's sssssooooo funny. When really, it's NOT. they hurt and it's embarrassing! Sorry. Well, the finally I get doesn't happen all the time. only with 4 mg or more. But if I only take a 2 mg tablet I don't feel anything. It's weird.
