Ok. So it’s Day 15 going on Day 16 and I gotta tell you, I’m astonished how easy this is going. I’m not depressed, I’m not anxious or nervous about how tomorrow will be. I just feel, I dunno, regular. I have occasional aches and pains and I’m tired, but I think I’m tired like a normal person is tired. My most glaring symptom is sneezing and a slight runny nose (Big deal, right?). I’m working 8+ hour days doing hard labor on roof tops in the heat and It’s just business as usual. I live by the beach and have been going whenever I can. Swimming, being active, etc. I went to the bar the other night and had a couple drinks and went dancing with some chipper young ladies. I’m laughing, having fun. I don’t know how else to explain it.

If you want to jump. Get to .25 mg and stay there, for a while. I was on .25 for months and months. I can’t even remember how long i was on .25. I just grabbed the bottle from my last script. It was fifteen 2 mg bupenorphine generic and I had it filled on 4/5/11 and made it last until July 17, 2011 when I jumped and I’m pretty sure I was on .25 a day for at least a couple weeks before that. Go even lower if you can. Razor knife that shit. Get it down to nothing. Skip days. Just power through your last doses to condition yourself for the jump. It’s mental and physical.

I know I’m not totally better. There are some days I feel worse and there are days I feel better. But the important thing is that I’m functioning and I’m happy and that’s all you can ask for in life.

As for clonodine. I have to say it helped. I took my last half of a .01 mg today. Didn’t take any saturday or sunday. and was only taking half a .01 mg a day for like a week before that so I don’t think I’ll miss it too much (knock on wood).

Will update this if anything changes for the worse or better. If you don’t see an update assume I’m doing good. No offense to you guys. But I don’t want to think about this part of my life at all If I dont have too.

Thank you to everyone for the information and support. I don’t have anyone in my life I can relate and talk to about this on the same level I was dealing with it. The closest I get are people who know people who say this or that or some other bullshit. Thank you for helping me through this. As I think I’m almost through.
