Smarmy (love that word!),
I'm sure someone with more personal experience than I have will be along soon, but I wanted to say hey. I think the degree of withdrawals you go through from the Suboxone varies alot depending on: the person; how long you've been on it; how much you've been on; and probably most importantly, how fast the taper is. If you're really concerned about the withdrawals, I would say work closely with your doctor to take it slow and easy to minimize the symptoms. They can also give you clonidine and stuff to help with the symptoms you do experience.

We will be here to support you as much as we can, but there really is no substitute for a good face-to-face meeting. I would try to get in as many as possible while you're going through this. You need support, OK? Let us know how you're doing!

Love and hugs,
Eddie
