So I was on Sublocade for 8 months. Then went to Suboxone for a year, to taper down and then went back to a lower dose of Sublocade. To tapered to nothing been two months since my last shot. mild withdrawals sporadically nothing major at all. I waited almost a full three years to taper off because of my drug history. so I was very cautious while getting off everything completely but I’m happy to say I am. And as long as you’re mines right you’ll make it. Good luck God bless
I am going on five months since my last shot. I had about 8 shots prior to that.
It was no problem for the first three months but after that i did start to get very mild withdrawal symptoms. Just feeling tired and lack of energy but nothing real bad. Having gone through withdrawals many time before I can say this nothing in comparison, but it still takes strength to not give in to whatever you were using before.
