Well for a few years now my fiancé and I have been doin oxycodone(recreationally). It's destroyed our lives and after the holidays we are stopping. We've tried before several times and have even been to a detox facility but we were kinda forced to go so we started back as soon as we got out because we weren't ready to quit. Her detox facility had her on methadone and mine had me on Clonodine(let's just say this was the worst thing they cold give me for W/Ds. It did not help at all).
I wondering how we should go about tapering off them. But first, here is a history of our use. We usually get 1 30mg Oxycodone a day and split it, so 15mg each. We usually only do one a day on Friday, Saturday, Sunday and some times a couple days durring the week(Monday-Thursday). Some times on the weekend we'll get one 30mg each but that rarely happens and is usually only one day on the weekend. So really we're not doing as much as most people but it's only because our money is gone by Monday. Some times we miraculously get money for a couple days durring the week.
W/Ds are still hell and usually start the next night after my last intake. I'm not really sure about her but for me, the only bad symptoms I get are an upset stomach that has me running to the bathroom a lot, not being able to sleep(insomnia?) and REALLY REALLY bad RLS. The RLS is what breaks me every time. Usually by the 2nd day I just can't stand it anymore and have to find a way to get my fix, usually pawning my stuff but I've ran out of stuff to sell. If I could get something to take the RLS away than I would be fine and i could get through W/Ds much easier. But nothing works. They had me on muscle relaxers at detox but that didn't work. The only thing I found that works is hot baths with muscle soothing bath salts. But as everyone knows this only works while your in the water and for a few minutes afterwards.
Anyways, once the holidays are over than we're stopping and we're thinking of getting a couple subutex from our dealer to last us a few days cuz for me, I don't withdraw but for maybe a week(well at least by this time the symptoms are very light) so I think if we could taper down then take the subutex that we should be able to kick this. But I've never taken subs and don't exactly know how they work. I've heard if you don't do them right than it'll send you into immediate W/Ds. We'll also be smoking bud but that's nothing new. We've been smoking for a long time and id much rather smoke than do pills anyways. Smoking helps a little but doesn't really take symptoms away, it's more like it distracts me from them.
So how do you guys think we should taper and when should we take the subs? I wanna do this right cuz it's time for us to stop and get our life on track. We've had our fun but now it's not. When it's the weekend, I dread the week days to come because I know I'm gonna W/D and I'm tired of feeling like s*** and tired of being scared. We snort them but my fiancé has recently tried shooting them and I don't want it to go any further and I don't want her to continue shooting because that's when it really drags you down.
I always told myself I would stop once my tolerance got above 15mg but like I said, I hardly ever do more than that in a single day and I told myself that like a year and a half ago.
Oh and I'm not sure how the tapering will work beause money is very tight. I'm jobless right now and my fiancé works a serving job and usually only make enough for one 30mg oxy each day she works since it's the cold season and people aren't really coming out to eat anymore. She works Fri-Sun and maybe one day durring the week(usually Tuesday or Wednesday) So the tapering might work but we will definitely be getting the subs. But we won't keep using them. We're only gonna get a couple and no more because I've heard W/Ds from subs are even worse.
Any help is greatly appreciated. We're ready to stop this and move on. It's destroyed our lives for the past 3 years and I'm just done with it.

I wish it was easier.. over a year time I developed a tolerance in excess of 500 mgs oxy.. and yet I get no physical wds.. I just crave it, and I space out my doses to every week or every other week, I guess thats how I managed to not get physical wds.. My best advice is just cold turkey, Im a true believer in (IF YOUR FINALLY AND TRUTHFULLY READY AND WILLING TO QUIT) you can do it cold turkey, spend the next 5-10 days paying the price of your abuse and after that your at the end of the dark tunnel 
as long as u guys are ready to quit that is all you need with you
