    Day 12 - got 2 hours sleep last night. Bursting in to tears at everything.  I don't want to do anything speak to anyone.  I definately do NOT want to go back to work on Monday - I can see my emails - i have over 200, I feel to overwhelmed to play catch up.  But then I am trying to get a promotion so I know right now I needing to be proving myself.

    When will I feel better??? Will i be better or worse once I get totally off the subutex?

    At the moment I can see no point in anything sad dark days

      Poor you, it is a really hideous business. In my last experience, Morphine, the horridness started to ease at day 12 and by day 14 I was starting to feel huma, by about day 18 I was feeling pretty good.

      I reckon you are going to feel amazing once you get off the Subutex!
