Only if it's high-grade, and even then it only helps for maybe 30 minutes. Try to find an indica-dominate strain over a sativa-dominate one, as indica gives you more of the "couch-lock" downer high, and sativa is more uppity. It will help slightly with aches and pains, as well as insomnia. It'll get your mind off of things too for a while, but one of the most important things it does in my opinion is help you to eat! Of course everyone's different, I'm only reporting my experience.

Can you use herion to help withdrawals on suboxone?

This seems counter productive as Suboxone is used to help withdrawl from Heroin. lf you are experiencing withdrawl while using Suboxone, or when tapering down from Suboxone, talk to your doctor. lf you have been using Suboxone without a doctor's prescription, and are now without it, talk to a doctor, a pharmacist or an addiction clinic. Heroin would be your worst option to help with withdrawl. At home help for withdrawl symptoms: imodium, ASA or ibuprofen or naproxin, something to help you sleep such as Benadryl or Gravol or better yet, a prescription sedative from your doctor. Note - do not use Nyquil to help you sleep.

How can i treat withdrawal symptoms from tramadol?

Tramadol withdrawl can be helped by taking smaller doses until you can stop. Tapering is your best bet. If you are addicted to it then you can take other opiates to stop the withdrawl, but you will have to go through it eventually. It depends how long you have been on the Tramadol. The withdrawl will subside after 4 days and you will be ok in a week or so. Depends on how long and how much you have been on. Tramadol withdrawl causes a nasty depression and leg pains. You can get through it if you stay busy. You will need to workout and walk. Listen to soft music and uplifting or self help CDs. It might sound corny, but when you are in the darkest part of Tramadol withdrawl you will see how it helps. I do not suggest you take anything other than maybe a mild xanax to help you sleep for 1-3 nights. No ambien and no caffiene. Lots of water and takes some amino acids and a multiple. Find out what causes you to take the Tramadol. What is your trigger? A different opiate will stop your withdrawl, but you will need at least a weeks worth and dont forget, you run the risk of getting hooked on that too.
