You should allow the inmates to pay for their own Suboxine. If they dont want to withdrawal then that is how they can not have to deal with that. Trust me, the inmates will find a way to get someone to send them money.
Withdrawal is not like the flu. You sleep the flu off. Withdrawal you can't sleep, sit still, and so depressed can't stand hardly any you HURT. Primarily from agitation. Like having to take a dump holding it in for 24 hours type of feeling only it's not that. Your body just screams I'm so agitated but your weak and sick it's HORRIBLE. It just kills people
I wish opiate withdrawal didn’t hurt so bad I’m so sick of using to feel normal I don’t even like the high anymore but the withdrawal I just can’t do it. Wish I was rich I’d have my own private nurse with me in a cabin
People just talk about how it feels like a bad case of the flu…that might be the PHYSICAL aspect…but I guess People haven't heard of something being psychosomatic…where PHYSICAL anguish becomes MENTAL anguish. It is such a sick cycle. I used to think that I was strong minded…but I would rather die, no joke. Whoever is still struggling, i pray that God holds you with his loving arms ❤️
I had to kick in Mahoning county jail, Youngstown,ohio. They give you NOTHING to help! If you really complain they put you in a cell in medical but STILL give you nothing to help
That woman actually said, we treat Suboxone withdrawals with Tylenol and anti-diarrheal medication with a straight face. As if that’s adequate. Acting like that’s not torturing another human being. Some people have no compassion whatsoever.
Sry i dont believe catering to junkies is solving the problem.they made / make the choice to be a junkie instead of a dr lawyer teacher factory worker n so on….a productive part of society.. jails filled w junkies..there for junkie crimes..stop the madness! Let them fail.u cant stop that itch.i speak from experience!!!
What blows my mind is people that give this advice have NEVER been on it. They read books and repeat what they read. Real talk. Jail/prison was what got me clean from heroin. But.. simple at home try this.
1. Find a kratom that bonds with you. 2. Walk around your neighborhood and pick up trash. Use empty 5 gal bucket and easy reach grabbers. This will give a small goal and reward of achievement. 3. Look up old videos and music that will give you a sense of blissful satisfaction while eating small portions of healthy food. The distraction will let your body adjust and make you feel at ease. Also this is the main thing. 4. You have to talk! Pair up with someone who will listen and engage with in conversation. This will help sooo much. Explain how you're feeling and what you're going through. When you speak about you pain it's a small relief. Trust me.
I'm tired of people saying it's like the flu. I rather get the flu. It's torture. The anxiety, the ants in your blood. ( it feels like that) the depression. The diarrhea, the cramping, the feeling of impending doom. Hope and God is your only relief.
I’m on suboxone. Because I was addicted to pain medication after a motocross accident. And I’m still on it. I wish I could get off.if I go 48 hours without a sub. I’ll feel it. It’s horrible
People have a right to fair medication treatment whether they’re in jail or out. There’s no excuse for someone not to be taken care of when they are sick, doesn’t matter what they’ve done. It’s just a human right!! Shame on our system and our country for treating our own this way!!
I went through 42 days for a simple no license .and was on 110 mg .it was horrible and i tried to tell the judge . And the deputy said well youll just have to suffer it was the worst month of my life.people have had heart attacks from the withdrawal It is so simple of a fix . That was 18 years ago . And ohio has not adressed the issue as far as i know.. you have to be incredibly off the radar if your on methadone ..one trip to the county jail could be your last
This really is a violation of the 8th amendment. This is tantamount to cruel and unusual punishment. And “within” 90 days? That’s not good enough! Opiate withdrawal starts within 12-72 hours ! PLUS think about the rat park study. Get them JOBS and a sense of purpose. PS people seem to forget…jails are supposed to rehabilitate. That’s the original purpose.
Just got out of jail. Was not allowed to have my prescribed Suboxone and went into withdrawal. It was awful. I could have easily relapsed when I got out but I didn't.
Sumboxone is just trading another drug for another and it's addictive as well, I know because my buddy that took pills switched to that crap and then he got hooked on it and then got worse on it where he lost so much weight were he looked like he was dying and like he had cancer like dead serious, don't take that crap people. You notice what oh girl said,MY SUMBOXONE not some sumboxone because she's addicted to it.
I’ve taken small amounts of suboxone for 5 years now not prescribed and the person I got them from passed away. Can someone help give advice on how I can get prescribed this from a doctor?

You still have heroin? I thought America is dealing with fentanyl.
It is not the flu

IT ISN'T OPIOID!!! It's opiate. They're two different things.
Coolaide is all you need. 1 packet per mg. It works. Was told by some dude on YT
@9:13,….and the wisdom to know the difference
They don’t give subs in Indiana jails they will sit n watch you suffer and not care at all
In Lexington nc they give you a vistiril for withdrawal. Even is your on suboxone on the outside and get locked up. You’ll get a vistiril
A fever 0:19
But why did it take a lawsuit for them to change it?
It just should be automatic like giving someone their insulin.

It's the worst suffering imaginable i can't do it

Treat? You're on your own.

Thiis is just sad and curl punishment Who should I feel bad the most?The criminals or the victims or both please god give me awser

3 Days Sober. Thank you God for helping me get through this nightmare called withdrawal
They offer Tylenol and anti-diarrhea medication for opiate withdrawal? Oh my god. That’s adding insult to injury.
Straight cold turkey is the only way…first 6 weeks was the hardest..Takes a year or more to start feeling better..Long road but doable.
I think the worst part of this video, was that girl singing
Itsveven worse then a bad case of flu and food poisoning combined times 10
Tylenol what a joke might as well give them sugar pills
Tylenol 😂😂😂😂😂 Anyone who says withdraw is like the flu has definitely NEVER been through withdraw…

People can die from withdrawals this is cruel!!
God Wendy looks like such a awful person.
The US government has created this problem. Nothing the US government does in this day and age makes sense.

Cold turkey every time I was locked up. Toughin up and learn from it or not
Suboxone has literally saved my life , im going on 5 years clean only because of it ..

Stupid lady thinks Tylenol and Imodium will help withdrawals? She really is clueless.
Let them detox cold turkey.
I’ve taken small amounts of suboxone for 5 years now not prescribed and the person I got them from passed away. Can someone help give advice on how I can get prescribed this from a doctor?
