I have tried to withdraw "cold turkey" at home with no medications to ease the pain and withdrawal symptoms.  This was on July 20th, 2022 but the calendar wouldn't let me put the accurate date above for some reason.  I made it to day 4 and took some Subutex that I had left over from a prescription I had and I went into SEVERE withdrawals. It was so intense like nothing I've ever experienced before that I gave up and bought "heroin," which is really fentanyl on the streets these days, to stop the utter hell I was experiencing.  My plan was to detox as long as it took at home and then call my doctor I had previously to prescribe me Subutex again and go through the program with M.A.T., but I really didn't want to because I don't want to be dependent on any medication or drug any longer. I've been sober before, and was 4 years sober before this relapse in April 2022.I tried another time two weeks later and that time I had an I.V. Drip Therapy place come and give me fluids at my house so I could try and get some nutrients into my body, hoping it would help speed the process up.  I also got a prescription of Clonidine and flexeril to help with the withdrawals, but I was at home and couldn't do it.  I would vomit, shake with chills, get hot and sweaty, leg cramps, back aches, no energy, depression, and may more symptoms.  This all happened this month.  It has been hell trying to detox at home without medical professionals to help.
