Suboxone WD

Hello,
I have been on suboxone for about 4 years since my last relapse.  Been on some sort of opiate for about 10 years...
Anyway I am wondering if anyone has used an opiate to relieve sub WD.  For example, Tylenol w/ codeine or a low does opiate.  I am currently only taking about .1-.2 mg of sub a day of the film.  Now I figured I could easily stop with only mild WD at this point but when I have tried that I get full WD.  Can't sleep, eat, sit still, chills, etc...
Now I'm not asking if I can get high, that's not what I want!  I want off this suboxone!!!!!
I want to sleep normally, have energy and above all poop like a normal human being!!!!!!  Haha
All joking aside I am very concerned.  My sub dr seems to think I should be able to just stop taking it and be fine, well that isn't the case.
As I said, if anyone has insight please let me know.  Again, would taking a low dose of opiate to alleviate sub WD help or would it just compound the duration of my WD in the end.
Thanks!

Wow, I just can't figure out what these pharma companies have told our doctors or what they are giving them.  Or it ti the supper opportunity they have to make money by selling subs.  It is something big. And super shameful because the doctors can sit us  there and these us subs aren't addictive, and our symptoms are crazy ( although we are usually understandably afraid of offening of prescript-writing hand.  Wow these doctors believe nothing of the painful creeds of their patients.
    Isn't it crazy that I m in a hopital dstoxing from suboxone?  today  I am on 4 mg today and tomorrow. I just looke  And 1 1/2 months ago I was in the hospital detoxing fro Opana for 10 days. Believe me, this is so sad to myself and to mu child.   I have heard people make comments about drugs they has used with suboxone ,and that would be amazing.  
   I would like to keep in touch.  Marie
