Hello Ricky – hope all is well with you. I am saddened that we were not able to beat the spammers with the forum. Call me some time.
Methadone is worse than dope because it takes a long time to build up in the system and a long time to exit the systems… 12 years on this shit… Down to 30 mgs. then Subutex… Clean 2 years… Back on dope… Then back on meth for the past 2 years… Detox is rough, but it can be done… BTW, I also kicked Xanax and Klonopin at the same time… 8 mgs. Xanax and 4 mgs. Klonopin… Now I can’t get back on the benzos because my doctor won’t give em’ to me… Hate the stigma attached with them..
The fact of the associated insidious and debilitating reality of methadone addiction on an otherwise healthy individual not afflicted with chronic pain due to injury or disease seems to be obscured in this forum. Every user is becomes aware that the longer that one uses methadone the greater the mental and physical loss. Yes, “initially” the illusion of “feeling good” associated with methadone use deludes a rational mind, but , as time passes all users come to know the the ultimate cost.
It’s nice to see someone saying something semi-positive about methadone. Methadone literally terrifies me, which is funny because I’m not scared of waking up every morning and pricking myself with a needle. I’m on Suboxone at the moment, but it isn’t working for me unfortunately. I’ve been on it for ~2months and I’ve slipped up many times, I’m craving intensely all day. I’m actually considering methadone, and my insurance will cover it 100%.
I found the CURE for addiction and I have proof for this? claim. Click on my name and witness Powerful Stories of Freedom. I personally know and have witnessed over 100? addicts who have found True and Lasting FREEDOM after being enslaved by their? addictions for so long. I have been through many programs for my addiction, but have never found so? much Hope, Joy, Peace, and Love than I have in the program I am in now. And the people I know who have given their stories are experiencing the same!
@xxPIRATEN666xx i chose methadone instead of a bullet!-it got me off the needle and got me more addicted to any substance ever-oc’s heroin hydromorphone oxymorphone(if u can get this 80mgs(2 40mg)and snap them will make you feel up to about 150 /day)-and it is a short acting opiate like diluadid-hydromorphone-the difference is like comparing hydro and oxy-codone-it will help get you on a short acting opiate cause it is even though its a time release like oc’s-so w/d wont last as long as done
@xmethadonian4u1 For me, methadone have been a real saver. I dont belive in 12 step programs at all. Now i been on methadone for 5 years, and I have not relapsed one time. I cant see my self getting off it ever. I dont want to get off it, ever. My life has changed so much, only possitiv things. Ive been on drugs for over ten years before I got my methadone. So I just want too say that I am very possitiv towards harm reduction. We need A new narcoti politics, No more lies!!!!!!!!!!
Thank for the info. i’am getting ready to stop methadone very soon myself and it helps to hear and see proplr that have done it and did well.
Thanks again and have a Great Holiday season,

i think 80percent of it is mental.i came off on 35mls.no horror story,been 8weeks and still havin trouble sleeping.methadone is liquid handcuffs.
I am now on day 22 of my recovery. It has been one of the worst things I have ever had to endure. After the detoxification ended I began to realize just how much the methadone had taken from me. I am finally emerging from the shadows and I know in my heart that I can never put myself through that pain again. To anyone trying to get through this dark addiction, just try and stay strong within yourself. Lean on loved ones and dont let the darkness take you. You have the strength to make it through
hi hope alls well with you ,just wanted to say im not sure how i feel (again) ive been on the juice(methadone) as its called by users in the UK, well London anyway & street heroin for well over 10 years plus & have been forced off street junk as there has & is a huge shortage of quality stuff & so my maintenance script is not enough on its own my DR has just raised my dose from 70mils to 90mils a day,its good I have been street clean for a couple months but I feel a backward step has been taken
I am on day 7 of white knuckle withdrawl. It is the hardest thing I have ever done. I started using codones and eventually they just didnt work anymore. Then a friend of mine introduced me to a lady who had a scrip that she didnt use,she would sell them. Then, holy shit. Methadone was perfect, I could work on it and I was super dad. Then I realized what a slave I really had become. Three years later here I am. I have never felt such physical and emotinal pain in my life. TY for listening.
My sister has been on Methadone for over 4 years and is taking other things with it. Such as Xanax and benedryl. She is getting very bad. She won’t listen to anyone in her family. We are trying to get her in to rehab. She won’t go. I am about to give up on her. I am watching her kill herself.
@xmethadonian4u1 Hi Rick, i really appreciate your Videos. You’ve given me some much needed hope, that i havent had in a while. My name is Doug. Im curious once you take the suboxin for 6 weeks you said u would need some medication to get off the suboxin, what is the medication? Can u email me back please @ [email protected]. Thank you.
When I went onto subutex I turned into a complete alcoholic, bottle of vod a day, now ive been on meth a few weeks and I havent touched a drop.
The comment on once a junkie always a junkie is 100% true. You are and always will be. Once you stick your self the first time you will fight that urge for the rest of your life. I have been clean from heroin for 9yrs & methadone 1yr and still to today when major shit goes wrong what is the first thing i think of???? I don’t use because I don’t want to but the urge is still there. I have so many reasons why not to use and thats the key! What have you gained since being clean? EVERYTHING!!!!
thanks rick it nice to know it can be Dunn with meff. it give me a bit of hope…
