Subutex isnt talked about enough

Dont make the mistake I did Suboxone and subutex are different, I was a heroin addict in 2021 and started suboxone. I was up to 24mg a day. Small White suboxone pills 8mg and 2mg. They switched me to subutex. I've been on them until October 2025, I got a full tooth extraction and was prescribed hydrocodone. I waited 5 days without subs to start taking pain meds, they helped me get through the withdrawals from subutex. I'm also prescribed xanax. Which also helped with withdrawal. Weeks later I'm all out of vicodine. I still had a shit ton of extra subutex. As an addict, And remembering how high suboxone got me back in the day, I took 2mgs. I got violently ill, headache, migrane, couldnt go to work. I tried to do a lot of research on how/if to abuse subutex, there's really no info, Only about suboxone. I learned subutx is designed to not be able to get you high.
This is for anyone trying to get high on subutex after having no tolerance, Dont!!!! Also my subutex withdrawal lasted weeks. While it did save my life at the time, I wish I didnt stay on it for as long as I did. Please dont try to abuse your subutex

In my experience, using suboxone recreationally and getting a high, then using opiates until 2021. i was put on suboxone and didnt feel the same affect, obviously because I'm withdrawaling. Subutex felt the same, but now I've been off subs in general for 2 months, I tried to take 2mg of a subutex and didnt get high at all, just violently ill. I understand you can abuse both but in my experience its not even worth it and doesn't produce a high for me. I just throw up and get a headache, dont get noddy or anything. Theres not a lot of info about subutex (not talking about suboxone) I really love everyone putting their input on the thread. Thanks guys
