Whats going on? I started suboxone only after 14 hours of withdrawl and have read that this could be the case here, but shouldnt it go away soon. Any ideas? Please help |
Hi, mark, and welcome to the forum. I really do not know what ALL is going on with you.
Are you suffering from depression, maybe?
Anyway, I would definitely speak to my sub doctor about this issue, but that is just what i would do.
Are you going to any kind of counseling or therapy?
I go to counseling- and I am on 4 mg of sub per day; and have been on them for
almost 7 years. Anyway, counseling once every two weeks definitely helps me and my anxiety.
As well, i am on a low dose of clonazepam (also known as Klonopin)- .25 mg twice a day.
This medicine also helps my anxiety. However, i see a psych doctor separate from my sub doc to
get this medication. But when i was not able to see my psych doc, my sub doc DID prescribe it for me.
Hope this helps. Good luck!
