Suboxone Chat Room (Page 5)
(Newest replies first)

I have now been on suboxone for a year, I got on it when I found out I was pregnant last January 2013 and I had my beautiful healthy daughter in August 2013 I used to be on subutex during my pregnancy but once I had my daughter I was switched to suboxone. I am on 2 1/2 strips a day and my doctor has been wanting to lower my dose however I have so much going on that I am really nervous to do so. I have lately been dealing with my daughter on my own her father just didn't show me the respect I deserved and he wasn't willing to work to support our daughter so we separated and now I am left on my own with all the finances out daughter and looking for employment which this all just recently happened since the last time I saw my doctor on top of that my daughter has medical issues due to her throat not developing correctly during my pregnancy so we have multiple doctor visits for her monthly and she has special feeding rules and medications to take so I am very overwhelmed. My doctor seems to be harder on me then his other patients some who have been on suboxone for 5+ years so this is making me very nervous to ask him to up my dose from 2 1/2 to 3 strips a day. Does anyone have any advice? I've really been trying to stick it out but I just feel like an emotional wreck and like my body can't take the stress. Please I need advice! How should I ask my doctor to up my dose?

I have before and it's not a good idea at all. After months of 4-8mg a day I could tell my circulation was getting bad. That's some thick stuff to be putting in your veins I would totally advise against it!!

Kelsey my opinion If you realy think you need more than just ask but I use to be were you r at and im down to a half a day and i once felt the same but I just started to take a half at a time. Like take a half wen i woke up then half around noon and then another half aroun 6 and then half at bed time that is honesly more than enough. Then you would still have a half left to take wen you want to. But im now down to a half a day and im so proud to be were im at today. U just have to force yourself to do it then you will get use to it. I cant believe I use to take 3 a day. Trust me I want to go back to 1 a day but i just try not to think about it. A half makes me content and not withdraw so thats all i need. but sometimes I want more just to take it because I want to. And i have before but im trying to stay strong and positive. so if you want to more then ask the worst that can happen is he say no.

Hello, Kelsey! How are you doing? Congratulations on your beautiful daughter! :-)

As to your question, I have to be honest and say that I don't think increasing your Suboxone is what you need. It isn't a medication that will help with stress, anxiety and etc.

I think you need to get some help with these specific issues, until things in your life calm back down, a little. You should just talk to your doctor about what's going on and see what they suggest. They may okay it for you to see another doctor for a different medication that can help.

Does anyone else have any advice or suggestions?
