GrnApple,
Welcome to the forum!!
First of all, YOU’RE ALREADY DOWN TO 4mg, that’s awesome!!! You should be pretty damn proud of yourself for getting from 12mg to 4mg. Like some of the earlier posters said, try and stabilize at 4mg. Once you feel good and stable, then consider dropping your dose.
You sound like your hell bent on tapering so I’m gonna offer you this advice. TAPER SLOWLY!!! If you rush your taper you will EFF it all up real good. Once people get around the 4mg mark, we’ll usually tell them to drop their dose by no more than 10% at a time…….that’d put you around 3.5mg for your next dose.
Getting to once per day dosing is a good idea too, as the others have already stated.
I think you need to take it easy on yourself about all this opiate addiction shit, it is what it is. Stop beating yourself up, take that energy and start planning your future……quit looking in the rear view man, there’s nothing there but heartache. Start looking forward and make some intelligent plans on what you’re gonna do from here on out.
