It isn't a matter of when you jump, .25mg or .125mg if you are not committed to stopping it won't matter. just because you feel no withdrawals is not a victory, actually that is the easy part. why did you get high? why do you need to? what have you done to change your life/behaviors? if you believe that taking Subs for a few days and little else will render a victory your mistaken. you can taper till your blue in the face and nothing will change until you decide to change.
Remember This:
Don't Rely on willpower for long term change it does not work. Do Change your thinking first
Don't Ignore how your environment shapes your behavior - Do Change your context/environment, change your life
Don't Try to stop behaviors instead create new ones - Do Focus on action not avoidance
Don't Underestimating power of triggers - No behavior happens without a trigger. Do Eliminate those triggers that cause cravings
Believing that knowledge / information leads to action - Like reading about which taper works,Do use action. everything needs action, knowledge alone does nothing
Focusing on abstract goals instead of concrete behaviors - Do this I will begin to walk everyday for 30 minutes (at specific time of day) instead of exercise helps with withdrawals
This all takes work and effort and time. Believing a few strips of Subs will change your life around is doomed for failure. You can't go work out for me at the gym and somehow I get fit, some things require your effort and work. It would be great if all someone needed to do is a Sub taper and little else and their life will turn around but it doesn't. Your behaviors, emotions, thinking and how you perceive things has more to do with ending your opiate addiction than Subs will ever have.
Think of your life the last 6 months and then ask yourself a brutally honest question, if I continue this same behavior for the next 2 years where do I see my life? Envision it, start with your morning all the way to the time you sleep. What do you see yourself doing, your success and your relationships. Whether you see great things or misery remember tomorrow is the beginning of that journey. Your actions and behaviors will dictate that future.
