suboxone..please read and help if you have any info/advice

Hey all. I just started suboxone yesterday. Been on a habit of vicodin, probably close to 15-25 10 mg's a day...all starting after a few DAMN kidney stones. I hate those things. I would have never known of pain killers if it hadn't been for those little ( and yes, LITTLE!!) devil stones.
Anyways, true need for strong pain medicine quickly turned into dependence, addiction, along with severe anxiety, which I was attempting to treat with all the vicodin. We all know it makes you feel better. and probably some depression, all stemming from I believe several events that have gone on in my life ( break-up,moving, new job, etc)
I feared a turning point coming soon about my vicodin use, and sure enough it came. God looks out for you when you won't look out after yourself...
I would really appreciate if y'all can talk to me about your subxone experiences..what you were on, how it worked, how you felt...the whole outcome, both good and bad things. true honesty here. because this is my life we are talking about. I won't mess it up entirely for the sake of my mom,dad..and especially my 2 AMAZING nephews
Note on my dosage- I believe it is fairly small, I am supposed to take 2 of the lowest dosages once a day. 2mgs I believe. I took the first 2 in the office yesterday, and felt slightly better though not this dramatic change. I wasn't feeling all that bad when I went in to begin with.
Please help if you can... and if you want my personal e-mail/IM for further conversation I would be glad to provide it.
Thank you!

 

How long were you on the Vicodin before you became dependent? I'm on Vic's for back pain (again). How long until I'm screwed?
