This December will be three years for me on suboxone. I have zero plans for going off it. I see no reason to – for some of the reasons you suggested and some of my own. To me it’s just a medication to take like others I take…no big deal. It doesn’t bother me to be on suboxone, I don’t feel ashamed, I don’t hide it, and I don’t feel the need to come off it. It’s too big a risk – that’s a big factor. When my husband told me his pain meds were increased (he’s not an addict), my heart jumped automatically. And that’s me without having used any opiates in almost three years. And with plenty of subox on board. How bad would I want it without all that sub in my system? To me, it’s too risky to even try. Just like my antidepressant or or other medication that helps me….I figure if I’m better on it, then why would I discontinue it?
I hope this helps.
