Suboxone Withdrawals (Page 2) (Top voted first)

I really truly need someone's help...after many years of surgeries became addicted to narcotics. Now, I have been on suboxone for close to 6 years. I just can't keep doing this...I can't afford it anymore and I am sick of the Dr's. I have tried getting off before and wished for it to be all over! Is there anyone out there who has gotten off Suboxone? And do you have any tips or can tell me if it's possible to get off without going through hell? Thank you in advance

I did. I took it for 6 months slowly weaning down to 1/4 of a 4 mg tab.
I felt off for a week, I missed a few days of work. Then I was almost ok but I still felt it for another week, then I was totally fine.
I wasn’t taking it for cravings or anything like that I had been on pain meds long term and I mistakenly thought that I would get out of having withdrawals at all with suboxone but it’s actually lasted longer than if I had just come off the pills.
Plan on two weeks after you wean down to nothing.
