I have been binging, recently unknowing to the fact that it has now been a month of everyday use (us users know how time flies, and how it creeps up). I wish to take a break, as well as reduce tolerance. This is mostly because, due to work, I cannot afford to get sick. I have binged before, at a maximum of typically a week and a half. I usually go cold turkey at that point, and that is fairly difficult as-is.
So, I am afraid to go through withdrawal with my current usage. I know it is difficult to reduce usage, but I believe I have the willpower to do so. I have been reducing well for the past few days.
My ROA is insufflation (I have never IV'd). I eyeball my doses, being experienced enough. I estimate my usage to be between 30-50mg per line (I sometimes re-dose later in the day) prior to reduction. The dosages may sound small, but this is pretty fire dope, the best I have had.
I am now taking about a third of what I usually take! I dose around 1-2PM, but by midnight I am beginning to withdraw again, so I redose then.
I think this is good so far, being my third day of tapering. Is that okay?
What I ask:
EDIT: I am now considering tapering using 1-2mg of a single 8mg Suboxone strip to detox for a few days. Would this be a better option?

What I ask:
- Does anyone have experience with this, and if so, what would be a good regime to completely avoid (or at least minimise) withdrawal?
- Is it true that getting high (i.e. treating yourself to a big line) once during the taper takes you back several days, in terms of physical withdrawal?
