Weaning Off Suboxone Opiate Replacement Therapy

Everyone, granted, has a different body and brain chemistry so no one patient can be held up as the shining example of "How Everyone Can Move Off Suboxone Withdrawal-Free" (in ten easy lessons).
Every story is unique. Having said that, I would really appreciate getting data from those of you who (like me) have been on some form of opiate usage for 20 years and who is currently going through weaning himself off the suboxone over a two month period. This is after three years of replacement therapy approved by the VA.
What's YOUR story?
Anyone have happy endings they want to share?
Any cautionary tales of coming off suboxone too fast?
Lay it on me!

If it's of any help I went ahead posted a link below to one of the other discussion threads here relating to Suboxone. Maybe you can browse through it to see how other patients are getting off this medication:

There's about 200 replies in that thread, so hopefully you'll find some of the responses to be beneficial! :)
