35 Day Suboxone Taper Success
Hi,
I just wanted to make a post about my experience on Suboxone. While trying to get over my past opioid addiction, I did a lot of research about possible treatment options. This is when I learned about Suboxone. However, while reading through countless posts and hearing about countless opinions, I read through a lot of conflicting opinions. Of such opinions, many people said differing things, like if you stay on Suboxone past 2-3 weeks you’d be fucked with withdrawals, or that suboxone isn’t the right move for quickly detoxing from opiates, and that going through the original withdrawals are better.
I was addicted to 7-oh for around 8 months. I used every day, and my doses grew to be extremely high. I tried tapering off them, but was unsuccessful everytime. I wanted to share my taper that worked extremely well, leaving me with virtually 0 withdrawals after quitting. After quitting 7-oh, my taper was the following in mg:
11, 8, 4, 2, 1.5, 1.5, 1, 1, 0.75, 0.65, 0.65, 0.5 for around 5 days, 0.375 for 2 days, 0.25 for 5 days, 0.175 for 3 day, then 0.125 until day 35.
The first 2.5 weeks were the roughest part, but honestly not terrible overall. I felt the worst on the jumps to 0.5, then to 0.25, but after this it was relatively easy. I began to feel completely normal, not even noticing my dose anymore at 0.125. If anyone is thinking of trying to do something similar, I hope you can use this to find some relief. I had the worst anxiety about my taper, and was constantly worried that I was extending it too long, or that I was going to be trapped on this drug. This may not work for everyone, but if anyone is thinking of trying something similar, I highly recommend this method. Good luck everyone, you are stronger than you know and it WILL get better ❤️
