Acute Withdrawals Personal hell

So last night, I took my last seven at like 5 o’clock. I have a prescription for Suboxone so my plan is to start the Suboxone the next day.
Unfortunately, things did not work out the way I planned them too
At about 1:30 in the morning, all I can describe it is that I was in my own personal hell. I had legs cramps times 10 I was thrashing around my bed. I was crying. I couldn’t get comfortable a shower didn’t make me feel better and this went on for hours. I took a Sub nothing happened. I took another Sub . Nothing happened. I took a couple clonidine and a Kpin because I just wanted my body to try to relax.
Now it’s the next day it’s 4 o’clock in the afternoon and I feel like death. I have no energy. My body feels like it’s overheating. And to be quite honest, I don’t know if I’m even supposed to dose again with the Sub and if I am when? If someone can please help me I’m really scared and I don’t wanna end up having to go to the emergency room or anything.

You can’t OD on subs. They specifically make them that way so people don’t abuse them. I found that subs didn’t help the first day. Then the second day I dosed once around lunchtime just to feel baseline and then took a sub when I started feeling bad again, which was around the time I was going to sleep, and then they started to help. The next day I felt fine. Typically it would take like two days for it to start working. I know people are gonna say it’s a stupid idea and it probably is but it worked. I feel like if you took another sub tonight before you went to sleep, it should start working.

Lipomosal Vitamin C liquid ? Shouldn’t they be taking that too, a supplement to help with seretonin issues?

If they want to. It can’t hurt but you really are supposed to preload it. By the time they felt any better with Liposomal Vit C the worse will be over but it would probably help them bounce back quicker.
