Well I can tell you that your positive outlook towards recovery is absolutely wonderful and will only help you get through this. Sounds like your doing really good, so keep up that motivation and good work. The one thing I will caution you about is to not over do it with the benzo's, thats not an addiction you want to have, but I know how much they can help you sleep. Just try not to use them any longer than absolutely necessary. So let us know how things continue to go, we're all routing for you, good luck and take care.

I am new here but I just wanted to give you some support. I am weaning off suboxone myself and it has been hard on me. I have been drinking red bulls for energy (not that I would recommend that). Sending a prayer your way!
