3 months is not that long, however you have built up a dependency. I was on Sub for 3 years and tapered off and jumped at 1mg. While on sub, I remember feeling the same way you do. No emotions, numbness, no motivation etc. My advice is get on a low dose-2mg or less per day. This is not as hard as you think especially since you have only been on for 3 months. At 8mg your opiate receptors are saturated 24/7 and that is what causes the symptoms you described. If you get to a small dose, almost all of the foggy feelings go away. ALso, if you normalize at a small dose it will be a lot easier to jump when you are ready. Private message me if you need any help getting down and/or quitting. Good luck!
