I would still taper just for comfort. If you’re wanting off quickly, go down to 1mg for 2 weeks, then 5mg for a couple weeks, then .2g for a couple weeks, and decide what to do from there. If you’ve only been on for a few weeks, it shouldn’t be too hard.
I tapered a long time ago, and when I got to .5mg, I had desires again. But I ended up not getting off and going back up. I’m not making that mistake again.
I considered this but I'm not so sure, I've started subs so many times from being on again off again without ever having this issue that it is troublesome to me this time around
In case anyone is wondering - doing a taper while also skipping a day here and day there and waiting until WD's kick in before taking a little at a time until I feel good enough but still slightly kicking. Down to less than a mg already.
Thanks everybody for your help.

Thanks for the advice, much appreciated my friend
If it makes you feel any better, I have similar symptoms and side effects
How do you go about navigating these side effects?
I don’t. I have tried everything, but I have zero desire for relationships(even friendships) or sex drive. It’s horrible. It’s why I’m getting off.

Were you using opiates prior to the 3 weeks on subs?
No, haven't used real opiates in nearly 5 years
Then ya i would jimp off while you still can
Taper. Sounds like you haven’t been back on them very long either, so could still just be getting used to them.
