I've been on suboxone for chronic pain, two periods from 2011-2014 then 2016 to date.  I'm one of the.population for which Suboxone withdrawal is not "mild" but pure hell for 3 weeks at least. I couldn't stay off because MD's failed to find any other effective pain relief for me.  I think Suboxone is an insidious medication that causes extreme dependency and eventually causes changes in brain function, and it also has become erratic for me, sometime making pain worse and/or triggering precipitous anxiety attacks. I need to remove and find another way to cope.
I'm evaluating options again, complicated by COVID though.
