The title alone makes me sound like I have my wires mixed, however hear me out. I’ve been a heavy fentanyl user for about 8 months straight this time around and have tried to get off of it several times but always experienced precipitated withdrawal. I even went 72 hours with nothing but gabapentin and took a suboxone and still had the precipitated withdrawals. I now have a somewhat studied and logical plan, beginning tomorrow and hopefully someone will comment on what I may do wrong and or this will help someone else. I smoked my last blue two hours ago and just now took 1800mg of gabapentin. The gabapentin makes it so I go through ZERO withdrawal, crazy right ? But it’s true. I am going to keep taking gaba every 8 hours until it’s been 96 hours with no fentanyl and then I am going to take a quarter of a SUBUTEX. and do this for three days. After the three days it’ll be approximately one week since I had any fentanyl and therefore I am going to slowly introduce suboxone into my system 1-2mg every 12-24 hours ( this is where I am a little confused as to how long to take another dose of suboxone to avoid precipitated withdrawals ). And then I will begin working my way up to my 12mg suboxone strip that’s been prescribed to me. Alas, am I having high hopes for failure or does this sound relatively copasetic ? This is my fourth time using gabapentin to go cold turkey off of fent and I can only hope (and pray) that this crazy method I’ve worked out, actually works. Any thoughts ? Has gabapentin worked for anyone like that in large quantities ? This entire ordeal makes me want to scream and tear my eyes out. But I’ll get there. I’ll get there.
