how hard will it be to quit suboxone

[time2quit]

I have been on methadone for 3 months at 20mg a day.  6 months before that I was doing some oxycodone for pain.  I quit those and got on dones.  Once I have admitted all my drug abuse to my family, I quickly decided to quit and I had a problem that I didn;t think I had until I quit and found out the withdraws.  Withdraws were horrible but the 2nd time around was better because I had my secret exposed (which helped tremendously with the anxiety and depression) and I went to a hospital for help.  I am in treatment and the doc put me on 4mg a day of suboxone.  I am on day 4 now and still have felt no withdraws from the methadone what so ever.  It has actually been great.  I am worried though that I might get the mental dependacy on suboxone as I did the methadone.  If I take it for 6 weeks am I in danger?  That is the treatment they chose for me.  They are going to taper me off the suboxone and assure me I wont become addicted but like I said, I feel really good and fear the mental aspect of it.  Can anyone who can relate or share your story, please need help.

Thanks

Suggest you go to the Health Pages (upper right hand side of this page) and look for a post titled "Members Experiences Coming off Suboxone" - it may help you by seeing others who used Suboxone - some with success and some not so good.  From my experience with Sub, the smallest dose and the shortest amount of time are the only way to go.  Those who are not willing to go through any W/D's will stay on Sub for many months or years --- it does not let you go easily.  The reason you are not having any W/D's from the Methadone is b/c the Sub is a powerful Opiate.  Wish you all the best and hope you can get clean of all opiates.
