"suboxone taper/detox?"

i think tapering is good. i am in my 4th day cold turkey off of 4-2mg. this is my second time in 3 years. to me tapering down to under 4mg is for the best. but last night i wanted to die. i had someone even knock on my door and offer me a lortab and i said i've come to far and it hurt to much so no. but you hear all kinRAB of stories and from someone who has played this game with sub for some time i'll tell you.... the first time i was on about 7 months tapered down and after 5 days the hardcore i want to die stuff was gone. day 3 being the worse. then on that 5th day i got up,went in my car and said i'm gonna go to a big festival and have fun. saw nin, ratm.but latter that night just felt like a drag. so some people say different things. but i say taper but don't taper like take a crurab every day for 3 weeks it feels like a permanent withdrawl that doesn't stop taking such small doses if you still hurt. taper short take 5 days off and if you can't take day 3 off!, have family help and keep strong. during my first detox i had clonadine this time i have clonipn wich when i wake up i take two some vitamin water and back to bed. first day i took an adderal and a red bull and it helped mask the wd but im too scared to now. good diet, frienRAB, movies on the coutch,hot baths, benzoz.
 
hey yeah so i'm on day six... things are better but i've had to miss a day of school and a whole day of work today. i have no pain it's just i'm very weak and it's hard to move around sometimes. my body temperature feels a but off but my appetite is coming back. from a lot of post i read this it the after dysphoria stage that can last a week or a month. so tonight i'm gonna go try and see a movie lol first time out in 6 days. finally had the energy to shave and clean up. but i feel draggy and i guess i'm going to have to rely on caffiene. i've been taking clonipin at night which helps a lot. no sleep issues here. if anything it;s hard to get out of bed at 8am in the morning. i have adderal laying around the house but i'm kinda hesitant on taking any becasue i hate the coming down and icy feeling and it seems toxic. so maybe some red bull and outside would be better. i will update later in a day or two on my status.
 
well, i'm day 7... i kinda had a break down last night. the physical is lack of energy but no pain just bad depression and fighting temptation. thought it was going to be like my first kick where 6 days and im good. but this time the mental effects are making me kinda nutty. i've been on clonipin, i suggest no uppers they sent me into a panic attack when the mental stuff started happening. i have an appointment with my pschy at 2pm tomorrow and the nurse told me to take my meRAB that make me sleepy but i've sleot 14 hrs! already. so i guess i'll wait. i'm just trying not to relapse out of desperation to releive this. my dopamine levels are way off :P egh. but for anyone out there going through this stick it out even if you get to day 8 or 9 and can't take it. just remeber those first 5 days and you don't want to go back there.
