Sorry about that. I am posting from my phone and I lost track of where I was. I ended stating that when I told my doc about my fear of tapering and being off of Suboxone, his response was that there would be no withdrawal and that the taper would be slow enough to minimize the withdrawal symptoms. Apparently he has not done the research that I have and has no idea what withdrawal feels like. I never overdosed but I came very close to taking my life when I was out of pills for 3 days. I’ve never felt such pain both mentally and physically in my life. I don’t know if I can make it through that again. Ithen again that was a completely different situation. My biggest hope is to become like each of you, welcoming newbies, offering advice, and sharing support to others in need. You are all so strong and I have the utmost respect for everyone traveling the road of recovery. Its not easy and it takes so much courage. I only have 4 months under my belt but I want for that 4 months to turn into 4 years and then 14 years and so on. I am so glad that I finally decided to ask for help on this forum.Each of your responses has already given me so much hope. Thank you again. I would love to keep hearing from everyone and I will continue to share my experiences and offer as much support as I can. Thank you for making me feel so welcome.
