Missing opiates & feeling depressed...

Hi everyone. I started a thread last week on my suboxone taper I'm doing. It's going good. Started 4 days on 8mg, dropped the next 4 days to 6mg, & am starting my drop tomorrow down to 4mg for the next 4 days & so forth. Basically dropping my sub dose every 4 days.

I was addicted to oxy for 7 years. I was up to about 160mg daily when I finally decided I was so tired of being sick, looking for pills, & running to the doc. It gets old. You know the drill, it's exhausting.

Anyway I've only been on the subs for 8 days now & I feel good. I am however very bored & feeling some depression coming through. I almost feel like I'm grieving the loss of my addiction, does that make sense? And does it get better? I'm really trying to keep moving along & staying positive about this journey.

Thanks for reading!
