I am trying hard to get off Suboxtone....but

I am 6 weeks into tapering down off Suboxtone. It has not been easy. I was on 24 mg for almost three years, way too high a dose and way too long to long a time period. I am down to alternating between 8 mgs one day and the 4 mgs the next. I am having difficulty taking it to the next level. I want to drop to 4 mgs one day followed by 2 mgs the next. This site has been very helpful, reading all the posts gives me hope that one day I can live drugfree. I was addicted to percacet/vicadon for over ten years. Some days have been awful, body cramps (especially my legs) and depression, but lately I have been experiencing "moments/periods" of feeling "normal" and this has given me hope. Drinking plenty of water and workouts at the gym have helped me greatly to deal with the the nasty side effects of tapering off. I keep telling myself that I will be able to do it (live drug free).
