Hey guys
Wow last night was crazy. Thank you all for helping me thorugh it. I slept good actually. 8 hours about. I dont feel too bad, i took my AD and half an ativan, im going to shower eat and go to MAss at noon.
I talk to a few people here in emails, i get soo confused, some people attacke me. I went to a detox dr to get the sub, so yes i have the clonodine, ambien, a few ativan and thats it. There are no more drugs, so i dont know why one peroson said that. Anyways, im worried that the long half life of sub is going to make me sick in the days to come, is that true
Its been 24hrs is it moving on out
Love
Red
Reddog, I have no answer for you, I just want to congratulate you on your decision to get clean.
Have a good day!
Have a good day!
Reddog,i think youre going to be just fine! My son(hes 23)just got off from his sub after 28 days(plus 30 days in rehab)so he had been taking it for like 2 months.Today is day 3 off the sub for him and hes doing great.He lowered his dosage,just like you,and three days ago took his last 1mg dose,and really,he is doing good.A little tired,a little anxiety but NOTHING like the CT i had gone through.I believe his usage was higher than yours and hes been using for 3-4 years so...hopefully this will make you feel better.I hadnt talked about my son on this board before but i figured if this will help you,i might as well talk about it.I wish you the best,youre going to make it!The only meds my son has right now,is one script of 60 clonadine,and hes just taking one at night before bed,and like you,hes sleeping well.Keep posting,im glad there were people here to help last night,it is a scary thing,take care~KIM
J and J's gram. That is wonderful wonderful news. I just talked to my sub dr. I called him, the first thnig he said was, i left him a panicked voicemail last night, he said CHILL RED. He gave me 15 ativan and clonodine plus my AD. Which must be working since i have not be blue in weeks. I feel good right now. Im going to Mass at noon. I love you guys
Yea last night was scary, i read my posts, man i was a freak last night. Oh I can take imodium ad, its weird too, its an opiate. I wasnt allowed to have it the day u detox for 12 hours to take sub, but now i can take it. So im gonna run to the drug store now and get my goodies, im gonna buy Ensure and gatoreade as well.
Have a good day

Red I am not sure how bad your use was. It will take a long time and a lot of hard work before you are back to 100%.
Do you remember how you felt before taking sub?
And now how are you?
Red its O.K to be scared. Nothing terrible will happen. You have the OTC list prescribed by DR RAE.
Red stop thinking and just go about your normal day.
Be Good--Jeff

Wow Jeff. Yea i was a mess a mental mess./ Im soo proud of myself. I twalked to my dr, he called in the ativan, only 15, my ad and clonodine. So imk set. I bought some imodium ad as well. He told me to take that. Oh and advil liquid gells. I needed water too, so i saw a case 24 bottles plus 4 free of poland spring. I love that water. I remember the last time i detoxed, after i had finsihed the case of water, 4-5 days, the wds were gone,
This drug store is a mile roundtrip. Half mile each way. I walked it for the exercise you told me too do. I had to walk home with that bottle of water on my back. Do u know how heavy that was, i sweated my a** off. I just got home, that was nuts!

Be careful with the ativan.
