I have been clean for 11 months from lortabs. im on subozone & i think its the best drug ever invented. It helped me recover from my addiction since day one. What i need to know is, is this drugs addiction worse than tab addiction? Physically? Mentally i know they are powerful, but what happens when i dont want to be on them anymore?
Is there updated messages in here?

Hello nyah and welcome to the boarRAB. I've been on Suboxone for over two months now, and from what I've read, it can be hard to get off of. If you taper too fast, the withdrawals can be very unpleasant. However, if you taper very slowly, it's much easier (as with any drug, of course). So, hopefully someone who has tapered the right way will reply and let you know the specifics (how much, how often etc.)
I agree, it is a wonderful drug. It gave me my life back in ways I thoughts weren't possible. I've chosen to not worry about when/if I come off Suboxone until that time comes. Try not to obsess about it, as you are already on it, and introducing a new worry will not be good for your recovery
Good luck,
emsmom

read some of the threaRAB about suboxone, i dont want to scare you but alot harder than oxy , its in the opoid family, for some better know as a substitute. they seem to just be finding out how hard this med is to get off of, an dont get me wrong it must help , i have heard alot of good things to , but like all opoiRAB the feeling better soon comes to an end for alot of us if you want off i hear a slow taper is needed for this what seems to be very powerful drug, good luck
if you want off i hear a slow taper is needed for this what seems to be very powerful drug, good luckI know i have to taper off, but i heard that even after that, that you still feel sick months later. im thinking of the future to prepare myself to what i have to deal with. i have 5 children that i wat to be around for, to see thier children, & great grand kiRAB. This is just a substitute drug thats legal. so if other illigal drugs are killing my body, than what are these potent drugs doing to mine? I feel im strong enough to get off, but then again i know i need them.:dizzy:

nyah,
How long do you plan to be on Suboxone? Are you thinking of stopping in the near future?
If not, I'd suggest not worrying about it until the time comes.
I know it's not going to be "easy" when and if I decide to stop taking Suboxone, however if I worry about it, I'm not taking it one day at a time.
Worry about tomorrow, tomorrow
Hope all is well,
