Hi retoons,
I am tapering and am tapering 20% or so about every 10-14 days…I will be dropping to 2 mgs/day this Sunday. It has taken me about 4 months to get here.
I started at 24 mgs/day.
I am so tempted to just jump when I get to .5 (because I am so ready to be done with this) but I’ve been on Sub 4 years the end of this coming Sept so I don’t think that’s wise LOL…I plan to taper to .125 and then start skipping days.
Some people think that they do better drawing the taper out over a very long period of time.
After a lot of research, I lean towards the side of getting off Sub the quickest way you can with minimal discomfort and then allowing the brain to heal receptors, dopamine reuptake, etc….without the partial agonist of Sub working in there.
However you choose to do your taper…be flexible and kind to yourself. Emotions are high, there will be some physical symptoms so just ride them out, knowing that you are healing and on your way back. It doesn’t last forever 
Best wishes to you and I look forward to seeing your progress!
