Um, is this water taper thing something developed by doctors or is it an addict's "recipe"?
I read that and it made me really uncomfortable. It appears to be like a detox recipe. If so, it has little place here. If I'm wrong, I stand corrected.
I checked with my co-counselor who has worked with three sub doctors. She was not familiar with anyone recommending stopping subs for a few days, especially at 14 mg. The only reason she knew of people skipping subs was when they were out of meds or needed to use opiate medication.
I agree with Shells post above, the most unsuccessful folks on Suboxone are those who mess around with their dosages, either up or down. People do experience exaggerated senses of well being at increased dosages.
This is all posted for information only, Becky, it is not intended as a reflection on what you are doing. The discussion had sort of branched off into other things and I wanted to comment on those.
Thanks,
