So, I've been on suboxone since 2007, had been on methadone for 5 yrs prior to that. Methadone and suboxone were/ are both life-saving for me but then I think how I've spent more then half of my life being on some type of substance, not to mention the current fact of insurance issues with suboxone. I feel that I'm ready to get off suboxone, I have support and I feel good about myself today and I know that I deserve to wake-up without the "dark cloud" looming over me. So I started on 24mg and now have been taking 2mg for the past 4 months--my only issue is that I started a new career (and it really is a career--ie. registered nurse) and I can't take the time off just yet. So I was thinking about waiting till the end of 2012??? Any suggestions--I spoke with a girl who said she had to go out on disability to get off subs.
