Started tapering off of Tramadol use of 7 years per my doctors supervision in January 2022. Very difficult. Started in outpatient therapy with GRT on January 14th, 2022 with once a week group zoom call. Started Suboxone that day taking 8mg twice daily. As of this writing still in program but have never felt good taking suboxone. Feeling mild withdrawal symptoms 80% of the day. Discussed this with their medical provider and they concluded that I should take an additional 1-mg dose, upping it to 3 times daily. As of this writing have not taken the increased dose. On Tuesday 3-22-22 decided to contact ANR. They're programs state that I would need to be in the program of taking suboxone for a minimum of 18 months.
Personal note, I will be 70 on 5-20-22 and want to regain my life and some quality of life.
