I have been documenting my methadone detox. I’m methadone free now for about 2 years. From 160mgs per day to 0. I did a taper that was up to me. I went down from 160 to 120 for a couple months. I then went from 120 to 80 and realized that was my baseline. When my body normalized,after 4-6 months, I then went to slowly tapering as my body let me know when. 40mgs to 20, then 10, then 5…and dropped off at 5mgs. If someone wants it enough…you can do it. For those that this drug is intended for…wish you all well! 💪💪💪💪💪💪✌️✌️✌️❤️
I'm down to 38 mgs from 150 mgs and it's getting a little tough at the end of the day. I was down to 22 mgs a few years back and that was really hard. Over how long did it take you. What amount per week drop? Can you give details???
Just got off it after 5 years. Def had symptoms for 2 months after. Sneezing, cold all the time, goosebumps, messed up stomach, yawning EXCESSIVELY, body aches. I’m so glad to be on the other side for my kiddos
Sit tide cuz it will be a long journey iwas in methadone for 19 years and i get out 2 years ago and i still feel like shit..well i hope you feel better by now cuz every its different...
2001 to 2015 , for 14 years. I was on it. I was 25 when i got on it and 39 when i got off it. Never went above 80 mg per day and halfway thru those years i reduced down to 40 mg per day. Finally around October 2015 i was completely free of it. Leading up to the very end of it i was chipping a single 10 mg tablet to where i was maybe taking 3 mg per day, then i went cold turkey. I remember it still being around 5 weeks of withdrawal. Maybe 3 hours of sleep per night for 4 weeks waking up with a sweaty shirt. Going between fever and chills. I lost around almost 15 lbs from not being hungry.The body aches and pains were unreal during those weeks. After about 30 days i noticed that the worst of it was over and i started sleeping longer, maybe 5 hours a night and the sweating was gone. At around 40 days i was sleeping 7 hours and i knew then it was all over. Never again. Once was enough. I've read where people relapsed and done it again and again, not me. It's something i never want to experience again. I've been free since 2015 and i'll stay free.
@@jmr6117 wow stay strong, thank you much for the honesty. From what I keep learning it’s the most drawn out because of its long lasting nature. Almost hard to think it’s still encouraged in clinics. I hope you heal and feel better soon!
Been on methadone since 1994. Iv struggle with detoxing but now I'm finally on my last 10 mills. I now reduce 2 Mills every 2 mths and can finally see an end to this. Iv been clean of drugs for 14 years apart from my medication.
Yeah me too I've been addicted to heroin for ten years now so I gave up live or die the last hit of heroin I got was on Saturday . Sunday Monday Tuesday I haven't touched it's sheer hell hell brother I have seen pains and my heart stopped I've seen my soul come out of my body I face the devil himself putting the breaks on is not a good Idea 72 hours gone and I haven't touched I can use methadone beause is available but I choose not too the only time I used med it was 48 hours after the last heroin use physptone helped it's a replacement drug and it worked because 48 hours gone I'm still in hell week but I decided that's it live or die I saw the devil it's sheeer horror the pain is merciless but today Tuesday I decided to reduce after 72 hours I chased the dragon now I'll go for another 72 hours and I won't touch any I'm trying I will tell you this I know it's gonna kill me so be it I'll keep going I won't stop fighting I'll keep going
You are the only person I believe that you are determined to stop . The rest are talking about years lols after cold turkey bro you know you'll come a little while of depression and you'll knock it off I hail you .👍no med needed just pure and walk as much as you can
I’m at 6 ml a day. Been in for 10 years. Going down 1 ml every month. I plan on jumping off at 1mg! Wish me luck. Either way I’ll be done. It’s been a rough year and a half to get where I am now. I won’t be looking back
@@rahimayim2840 I’m at 3 ml right now. So far I’m fine. Sleep is a little off but other then that I’ve had more energy then I’ve had in 10 years from being on this shit. Lost weight and feel 10 times better. I’ll probably be off in about 4 months. Give or take. Slow and steady wins the race
@@myothernameisnana7188 I was on it for 20 plus years and have been off it for years now. I would say almost all my withdrawal symptoms were gone 3 months into it, and definitely by 6. It seems liked forever to me and it was torture. I also went cold turkey which was hell on earth. Exercise and diet helped me a lot. I'm huge into working out again now. Good luck, you got this.
been taking methadone from a clinic for 14 years and i’m almost done i’m at 4mg today. i don’t regret going there and it worked for me but i don’t want to be controlled by clinic.
@@jmr6117 Well who cares if it already happened? I mean when you're on medication you're being controlled by your doctor and the pharmacy, but who cares? People need to decide what they want to do. Dwelling on the past is just stupid. As long as they're getting off, that's what's of value.
Take it easy ,take your time methadone its the worst drug to detox i get detox a year ago after 19 0lus years and i stil feel like crap ,its bad i still have chills ,diarrheas ,i mind all the F simptoms...and the worst part its your brain so depress, its hard for real.
Drs know nothing. They don't understand the difference between this and other opiods.2 yrs after I. Got on methadone I had a liver transplant a then other surgeries. So much pain. Methadone got me through. I have pain issues still. But I doing know what is real. I didn't know withdraw was a killer. I had 10 mgs 16 hrs ago. Now every part of me hurts. I won't make til morning. Another 5 will help. I never take more than 15mgs A day. Usually 10. I don't know what to do. I am 70 and getting old is hard, too. My spine is in bad shape. No one to talk to who understands.
I tried 2 mls every 3 weeks and on the 9 week i was fucked up and had to go back up again. Now i go down 1 ml every 3 weeks. Im at 45 from 75. I want off but slowly . I dont want to hurt myself and get a heart attack or sumthing from not having it for afew days. 1 ml gets me messed up for a week then i adjust. S ucks but its better than going up a ml every time.
@@kittyk.klandasions7008 thanx for your concern, I'm now on 35mg this is almost over. I think I'm gonna cry when I get off completely. I forgot what it's like to be normal
I feel like blowing my head off. I turned into an alcoholic while being on methadone for 8 years. I drink a 40 of spiced rum a day and I take 110 milligrams of methadone daily. I was completely sober, other then methadone, for 8 years and had a bad break up. I turned to drinking spiced rum straight from the bottle. Someone please help me. I’m dying and need a friend desperately.
How are you mate. My advice is drop 5mls every two weeks so your body adjust. Once you reach 30mls go down 2mls every two weeks. Don't come off alcohol at the same time as that can be lethal. Take your time and allow your body to settle on the new dose before dropping again. I was never a drinker so I can't help with alcohol except to say drink enough to be fine but don't drink to get drunk. You can beat this.
@@ellen9925 I am just finishing a 750 ml ( 26’er ) of spiced rum now. I had a scope done of my throat and stomach and also there’s an %80 chance I have liver disease.
@@pigeonsil240sx yes I had my year on July 5. I'm still hanging in there. The amount of time being on it I think makes it a bit tougher. How are you doing?
@@jmr6117 you gotta force yourself to do exercise and get the dopamine factory to boot up, its hard and it sucks but i read this alone can speed up the process by 50%. i like swimming best.
I went through it in the summer of 2008 I quit 40mgs cold turkey because i had been taking it daily for 18 months without a prescription and was never documented.I had been through oxy and hydrocodone withdrawal before but methadone withdrawal is the only thing that made me shake uncontrollably and the discomfort was 10 times worse like burning alive except you don't get to die.One of if the hardest things ive been through and seemed like it was never gonna end but after about 3 or 4 months it slowly started to get better and 6 to fully recover..I'll never get on it again unless i find out im dying a certain death from a disease or somthing because then I wont have to worry about going through the hellish withdrawal again.Dont believe all the literature about it either withdrawal might be a little delayed but it damn sure aint mild and lasts a helluva lot longer than 14 days its more like 114 days.
Didnt sleep for a month worst brutal withdrawls i ever experienced. Was wishing after 2 weeks i had just cold turkey heroin instead. Methadone is no joke to kick
Been off 15 months. Still yawning, teary eyed and sore. Not too sore but the psychological crap is exhausting. If there’s one thing it’s the extreme yawning. I expect WAY more progress by now. It’s disheartening for sure. Worth it in the end but when the hell does this end? Detox yourself. Methadone is too hard to get off. The progress is far too slow. You can’t map it because of this. Super frustrated.
15 months you said then you are weak what's wrong with you that's weakness start training excercising get sweat and give a cold shower see what I mean addicted for 3650 days and I'm mentally too strong I think I'm the one to tell you and help you bro common you said 15 months what the hell your mentally weak
Take my advice it's mentally now mental addiction did you really said 15 months ? What's wrong with you bro I came here seeking help now I'm the helper . Excercise sweat run jogg I'm dying and I'm still trying to help others at any time my heart might stop I'm addicted to heroin for 10 years now what I'm doing right now is I don't take for 3 days then I take now little by little is releasing me I shit blood is like a woman giving birth I shock myself I put a iron in the socket to get shocked I repeat I was pronounced dead 2 times now I haven't taken for 3 days I'm texting you from hell I've been in isolation more than 20 times I wish my heart will stop I remember the last time I was in rehab they handcuffede hands and legs a doctress was checking on me I told her please stop my heart inject me and stop it I told her I'll give her 3 thousand dollars it's what I have in my jeans I use to weight 92 kilograms of pure muscle now I'm 46 kilograms I begged her stop my heart she cried and ran away and you are here telling me you didn't have it for 15 months your not serious
9 months out still not normal. 6 months of pure hell. Went 6 days no sleep than naybe an hour a night for a long time. 11 years on it. So thankful for it. Yet i hate what it has done too me.
Its hard i was on methadone for 19 years and its been 18 months since i get out and I still feel like garbage ,can't sleep 3 hours diarrheas etc...i go to the gym 6 days a week and still don't feel normal ,i wish i never touch that shit but its what its it.
Everyone's different. So much depends on length of use, dose, mindset and how you taper. I was on methadone for 30 years (now opioid free 4 years). Even with a long, slow taper (which helped minimize AWS) the PAWS was brutal and lasted over 1.5 years. If you count the lack of energy/motivation, you could say my PAWS continues to this day. Then again it could just be that I'm getting old!
@@popsomniferum Thank you and yeah it was miserable. Even with a strong will, it's tough to fight when you have no energy. I try to tell anyone looking to quit methadone to be prepared for a brawl. But in the end it was clearly worth the fight as I feel better now than I ever did on methadone.
Very happy for you. I did opiates during my twenties. Spent the first half of thirties on this junk. The second half recovering from it. I did it long and slow also. PAWS is a bitch! Takes the body and mind a long time to heal
Ummm i was on it for 19 years get out finally 9 months ago and man its feel like the first month yet. This shit take for ever to get out of your body...up date its been 15 months and i still feel like shit.
@@jmr6117Brother congratulations on finally getting away from liquid handcuffs, your situation sounds similar to mine I have been trying to get off this stuff for a very long time when I get to 30mgs it is truly unbearable as I know you understand but I feel like a prisoner. I cannot go on holidays I cannot go anywhere because I am chained to the chemist where you really are judged and look down on. I am not on drugs apart from this rubbish I don't drink I don't smoke I just want my freedom back I am 58 and have been trapped for 20 years if only I knew this before they gave it to me after taking me off ms contine after car accident I do not need this stuff any more but you know how hard it is to get off really I have had 20 years of my working life stolen but I am down to finally 25 MGS and I am determining this time that this is it weather I feel like absolute crap. Congratulations again for beating this nasty drug.💯respect now you are free to enjoy life again
Take it very slow. There is no rush when tapering. If you're on a high dose, 1mg a week until you reach 50mg, then drop 1mg every 2 weeks until you are off. You should have very minimal, if any, withdrawals if you follow that taper schedule
Agreed. I have seen Soo many people at my clinic rush there detox and after they take there last dose literally the next day or 2 there back to shooting smack or smoking fentanyl for a couple months then come walking back into the clinic.... It's fucking depressing as hell watching the exact same situation over and over
Been on methadone for 24 years, dose was 270mg/day for 18 of those years, decided to slowly reduce (5mg every 2 weeks) until I reached 100mg then 2mg/month & now I’m at 38mg. So far absolutely zero discomfort but will that continue & what’ll happen when I hit the big ZERO??? Definitely 1 day @ a time for me & no looking back!
I’ve been on methadone for about 7 years now or so, during Covid I definitely got way to comfortable and I regret it so much cuz that would of been the perfect time for me to really focus on tapering I did a little bit but it was almost impossible to taper when they were giving us 30 takehomes at once. I was at 110 at one point but I’ve dropped down to 89mg now. Recently I’ve been having some strange side effects and of course the clinic or my personal doctor didn’t really help me. Yesterday I took my dose and my heart rate is just been really iffy, going up n down at resting rate and just that overall feeling of severe anxiety. I do smoke weed a lot and I thought that might help lol but it just heightened everything and made it so much worse lol. But I never have had that problem with smoking weed, it’s always helped me with my eating habits and nausea. It’s also helped me out extremely in the past with my anxiety issues. Anyway my heart rate yesterday was going up to 120ish but I would be able to control it and make it go back down to the 90s but it would go back n forth for awhile. Then when i finally got it back down to normal I was able to take a nap, woke up felt so much better. But today at work I took my dose on my break at 10:30am as I always do and I just felt so anxious all day long. Idk what’s going on with me. It’s scary as hell I just want to feel normal, this crap is so annoying. I’m scared I’m having heart problems, I’m also worried about my teeth and things going on in my life so I feel like that could be adding to everything.
@@aveleedeleon7694 thank you so much for the advice!! I’m definitely going to take a look in to that!! I got blood work done and a EKG done but everything came back fine. Past couple weeks have been a little better but had some ugly episodes over the past month since I posted this comment. Really been focusing on my diet and trying to eat better. I really need to get a good exercise routine going. I started working out again about 2 and half weeks ago or so. But I haven’t been steady with it like I should but it’s a start!
I still go to clinic. I know ur struggle. Man.. i have questions. But i just want off it as well. I got down tp 109 as well bro. My body wasnt healed from the drugs and it almost took my life. Took years to gain back the weight. Man. Write me if you want but i am at 2 mgees. And was at a good place tell another thinga hapened. Idk. Gos bless man.
Every 2 week is way to fast ( for me ) You drop in dose then take 2 weeks for you body to adjust. Then your dropping again so your not get a rest before dropping again.
How do you get 1 mg? I take 5 mg tablets. I'm down to 10 mg in the morning and occasionally 5 mg at night for pain.I don't know if my pain is real or caused by the methadone wearing off. I've tried many times to get off of it, getting down to 5 mgs, but my body goes into spasms. I've been knit for 18 yrs. I'm 70 years old. I had a problem with pain pills starting in 1990. My Dr is clueless.
@sonniquickpianoimprov2231 yeh that what happened to me. Remember it your detox not there's say to them your feelings terrible and want to do slow detox. Tell them you want come down 1 Mill every 3 weeks that way you won't feel terrible. My worst thing was restless leg syndrome it was terrible but reducing slowly dose help with withdrawal. You could even ask to come down 1 Mill a mth.
@sonniquickpianoimprov2231 or ask to go on buprenorphine tablets they come in. 2mills 1 Mill half Mill. My friend just switched over to them an finds it better than methadone an they can reduce it to half Mill. Each reduction. I'm going on to them once I reach 3 Mills.
@sonniquickpianoimprov2231 problem with methadone tablets or methadone is once you reach 2 Mills they don't do down any further so buprenorphine would be great for you
*Methadone withdrawal can feel overwhelming at times. Keeping in regular contact with your healthcare team, if you have one, can help make the process*
Man they don't give a fuck about any drug adict ,period ..i mind they help you to get hook any any other drug😅. I was in methadone for 19 and i ask for help to detox for over 10 years i try so many times i end up going back to high dose ,finally 2 years ago i jump at 1 mg and good lord i still feel like shit its bad how i feel anf no Dr can't help they just tell me get to subuxone wish i use for 2 years too n its the same to detox or go back to methadone and i say NOOOO i have enough in all those years...i live one day at time its easy relapse then go back to methadone 😢..fuck methadone.
Been on methadone for about 14 years. Circumstances left me to leave the clinic and jump off at 28mgs 3 days ago. I was stable at that dose for several a years. The withdrawals are pretty minor to say the least. Major thing is my nose is just constantly wet but aside from that and some anxiety, it’s been pretty smooth. Don’t really have the option to go back to the clinic and I couldn’t get my hands on heroin even if I tried. Only option is getting clean and I’ve never been more ready for it. I’ve attempted several times but you really have to be in the right mindset in order to get through it.
He's talking about buprenorphine more so, bcuz it also acts as an antagonist which last longer than agonists. Methadone is a protein bound opioid that means in your tissue or fat. It builds a reservoir in your tissue. I believe it's treated with a diethyl ether since it's fully synthetic, right ??
I was at 120 I'm now at 10. Just called about 15 minutes ago to drop down to 6. Then I decided to youtube some videos. This was the first one I found. It's possible. Ive done it slow and steady over this past year. Take it slow. Take it steady don't rush. And it's possible.
@@alishour5519 yea i have a problem ! How a moron come to talk about heroin detox when we are talking about methadone whitdraws, shit heroin whitdraws take a week methadone can take 2 years and come here like that a big del kfhere..
I’m on 13mg right now from 189 mg. I’ve been on methadone for 7 LONG years. I’m going down 1mg a month and besides depression and ALWAYS being tired I will occasionally get restless leg syndrome and prickly skin. I take an otc sleep aid every night and that helps me sleep. I’m scared of how bad withdrawals will get when I get lower. I haven’t experienced full blown withdrawal since I decided to drop my dose just the random rls and prickly skin every few weeks. Is it the same for everyone? Will I feel really bad even if I taper to 1mg? Not gonna lie.. these comments are scaring me.
Same. I’m at 61mg from 120mg. I’ve been on for 6 years. It has flown by, I never thought I’d still be on it. I’m doing 1-3mg per month. These comments are scaring the ever living shit out of me. I haven’t had any withdrawals yet except maybe some depression while I’ve now cut my dose in half it’s taken 2 years and will be another 2 before I’m done. But I was sincerely hoping this is how I will be able to come off without any serious withdrawal because I just don’t handle withdrawal well in any serious capacity.
1 mg a month its o right ,i was on methadone for 19 years drop 1 mg a week and i get out at 5 mg and my good lord 17 months i still feel the whitdraws, its not the same for everybody cus you may be younger and use it for 7 years ,not me i am 53 years and i use it for so long you know..good luck ok.
Hey wanted to speak with you. I was on 170MG for 11 years. Went from 170 down to 14 and back up to 30 because of the RLS and sleep. Went from 30 down 2.5 every two days and got to 15 and went 5 a day, on the 19 th was my last dose, it's now the 29th and the symptoms aren't even close to what I thought it was going to be, although not comfortable, they are completely manageable, I have two months to get better Im lucky enough to have a father who's letting me get my shit together, you can do it, I'm the weakest person I know ND IT'S been 9 days and I thought it was going to b so brutal and it's not, do WHAT I did and your no longer a slave, you womt feel great but In a few months you'll be glad you did it.
I was only on 60mg and it took me almost 10 months to get off it. I'm on 2mg per day and will be off it completely in about 3 weeks. Go slow. Gabapentin and Xanax help but don't just trade one addiction for another. Good luck. I should be dead but I'm alive. Thank God.
If only it were that simple. I’ve been on ‘done 45 years. Started on 80 came off for a year, (after a looooong taper), but went back on as was still craving. Now on 100. I am a fast metaboliser and still have to to split my dose to make it through the night. I have tried not splitting but it’s way too uncomfortable. All different I guess. Get 6 t/a a week so very fortunate really.
Sorry sir, but you are completely wrong. I have been on Methadone for exactly 31 years. I do go into withdrawal if I miss a day. That's why it is prescribed daily. Worrying stuff.

Hey doc I think you should include that it dont last 24 hours even 140mg doesn't so i have to split my dose. Not saying your wrong but not juat me a small percentage of people it doesnt have the half life it claims.

Imagine the worst flu ever while feelong so achy you just cant move but it hurts so much you ant sleep eat or feel comfortable then Theres the depression which has led me me to several intentional overdoses.

Hi Ali-Methadone, buprenorphine, and naltrexone are the 3 proven forms of medication-assisted treatment (MAT) for opioid use, including heroin. Almost everyone with Opioid Use Disorder needs some kind of MAT in early recovery, while they are developing the coping skills and making the other changes needed to stay in long term recovery. Each of those 3 medications works best in certain circumstances so please discuss with your doctor. Best wishes!
@@alishour5519 if you can’t stay off heroin then maybe methadone is a thing for life but that’s a better alternative. However, if you wanna be free of opioids don’t bother. It’s too hard to get off and kicking heroin (I’m assuming it’s cut with fentanyl) might actually be easier.

Well he doesn't say how long? I'm an older woman 65 and have a drug test coming up it'll be approximately 22 days does anybody know if this will be okay I'm scared as hell
I've been on it for 10 years and I never found it addicting. It's taken me 5 years to go from 110 to 2mgs that I'm on now. The only thing I ever felt was EXTREME tiredness, which I absolutely hated! And the first year I felt nothing at all, just less cravings. The only thing that makes it addicting is just simply HAVING to take it everyday to avoid the pain of withdraw
I've tried and tried. When I get too low, 5 mgs My body goes into spasms my legs kick and my arms want to hit something. I can't make it. I take some to make it stop. Drs have no clue about M withdraw. Today I read the summary from my last Dr visit. He says I'm stable on methadone for LOW BACK PAIN. I don't have low back pain, but I guess he needs a reason to prescribe it. I do have pain issues. In in a wheelchair from a broken leg that heal right. I have osteoporosis from liver cirrhosis from hep C ( liver transplant) and have broken quite a few bones. I don't know what my real pain level is. Maybe I can't stop now. Too late to have better quality of life without it.
@@sonniquickpianoimprov How old are you? It absolutely will be a lot tougher at an older age, and you seem to have a lot of serious health problems, all of which will make it a lot harder to come off, and the withdrawals will be worse. You can always stop, but you have to want it. You likely need to come down real slow, especially when it gets bad. I hope you can get there though.
That's what I detoxed from, of course tapering down for 3 months first, maybe 4. It was pretty rough for me for about 90 days and then the paws but everyday is not bad
I was always told how bad it would be. I completely disagree on my behalf. I have taken them all and off 140 mg cold turkey it was very mild compared to heroin fentanyl and even hydros or percs. I have been through every cold turkey withdrawal there is and Xanax is the only one I should've died from. For what it's worth.
BS.you was in methadone for short time i bet ,thats why you say that ,heroin whitdraws, xanax ,perc are joke compare to methadone i use methadone for 19 years i detox that shit 15 months ago and i still feel like shit ,shit methadone its the worst drug to detox and the longer to detox ..
Na,na,na keep it real you maybe was on methadone for couples months or weeks cuz if you was in methadone for years you won't say that for sure ,something else you ain't get cold turkey you get high in something cuz methadone its the worst drug to detox, heroin xanax or whatever its a walk in the park beside methadone 😂.
Bro I’m sitting here reading all these comments about how horrible methadone is and how it takes years to get off and years after that to even feel normal again. I got on it because I thought there was no way it could be worse than fentanyl withdrawal but now im psyching myself out thinking I made a huge mistake. If your comment is true it’ll make me feel so much better. If you have any advice I’d really appreciate it
Shut the front door that you can miss a drink at the clinic and be ok…been on 90 mls for 5 years and 2 hours passed my drink time and I’m sweating and shaking…
I’ve been on methadone for over 30 years and still use a couple of times a week does anyone think it would be possible to stop the done and just use the heroin till done is out of system and then reduce heroin bit by bit then jump off what do people think about that ?
That's literally what a doctor told me to do. I had done one of those stupid rapid detox things off methadone and a month later I was still in withdrawals, like full on stuff . I eventually rang a doctor who knew what he was talking about and he said the best thing he advised was to start using again for 3 months then try another detox. That one worked perfectly. I know you're not talking about doing the rapid detox but I reckon getting it out of your system is what's gonna make it easier
My boyfriend is about to go through withdrawals. He’s very scared. The clinic said his urine shows no traces . This is the second time that has happened. I watch him take it every day. He’s on 105 ml and the said they drop him to 10 ml so he is panicking over the withdrawal. What should he do
I feel for him and you! I went into detox when I finally got down to 30mg from 120mg it was the hardest drug I ever came off of! I've been off only 5 months but you couldn't pay me to even take one now! It's the worst of the worst when it comes to withdrawal!! I'd say he should go into detox!! But you gotta really want off of them!!! Best of luck!!!!
@@SueMarshallprice-iz2fg shit i was in methadone for 19 years and i get out of that handcuff 13 months ago and i still feel like shit ,i jump from 5 mg and it was hell the first 6 months so be cold turkey its not easy to say then done.
The panic is part of opiate withdrawal. He'll be terrified before he gets any symptoms. He can do this though. It's absolutely torture, especially on a high dose like that, but it's doable at the same time. He needs to just stick with it. Make sure you support him a ton. Most people are extremely anxious and unhappy when they aren't on their dose any more. Not just physical, but extremely mentally messed up. It's really tough to deal with, but he can do it.
I have been taking 50mg for 60 days. I already want to quit. I feel like it won't be that hard for me if I have only been taking it that short time, also dose not that high.
@@ellen9925 Yer I’m understanding that now. I went from 80 to 60 in a day then down to 20 over the next few weeks. Then I just hit a wall, hardly any sleep, always covered in sweat, And after 20 yrs of never ever crying, I felt like bursting into tears. There’s definitely benefits to taking it slow.
OMG I've been on off it since 99-2000ish and I just cant get off it Not even the physical that's the worst it's the crushing depression that comes with it. My dose dont last 24 hrs so I wake up depressed and in withdrawals but because I had a lapse and was honest I got to daily pick up it's just like scoring without the needle. Alot better off on meth than heroin though.
Every drug is a slavery methodone is one of those drugs, I’m on 8 now every month go down 1 mg down feel good now and go gym eat healthy believe me. Its help me now i craving exercise, get stronger
"Dont go into withdrawal if u miss one day "" that's why I'd prefer my doctors to be users or ex users . A long shot I know but book learnt to actually going thru it .one missed and u are in withdrawal
Well depend for how long you are on it, i was on methadone for 19 years 18 months ago i walk away in 5 mg and i still feel like shit you may be young and wasn't on for so long one thing don't use anything to feel better cuz its a big mistake you can do it ,nothing last for ever ok..i wish you the best .
This doctor has no idea. Methadone is evil as hell I was not good for damn 2 months then slowly startd going off. I rather go back to H and wd 4 days then methadone hell

I have been documenting my methadone detox. I’m methadone free now for about 2 years. From 160mgs per day to 0. I did a taper that was up to me. I went down from 160 to 120 for a couple months. I then went from 120 to 80 and realized that was my baseline. When my body normalized,after 4-6 months, I then went to slowly tapering as my body let me know when. 40mgs to 20, then 10, then 5…and dropped off at 5mgs. If someone wants it enough…you can do it. For those that this drug is intended for…wish you all well! 💪💪💪💪💪💪✌️✌️✌️❤️

@@cassiekat4055 don't listen to no one your over it
2001 to 2015 , for 14 years. I was on it. I was 25 when i got on it and 39 when i got off it. Never went above 80 mg per day and halfway thru those years i reduced down to 40 mg per day. Finally around October 2015 i was completely free of it. Leading up to the very end of it i was chipping a single 10 mg tablet to where i was maybe taking 3 mg per day, then i went cold turkey. I remember it still being around 5 weeks of withdrawal. Maybe 3 hours of sleep per night for 4 weeks waking up with a sweaty shirt. Going between fever and chills. I lost around almost 15 lbs from not being hungry.The body aches and pains were unreal during those weeks.
After about 30 days i noticed that the worst of it was over and i started sleeping longer, maybe 5 hours a night and the sweating was gone. At around 40 days i was sleeping 7 hours and i knew then it was all over. Never again. Once was enough. I've read where people relapsed and done it again and again, not me. It's something i never want to experience again. I've been free since 2015 and i'll stay free.
It's such a long drawn out process. You're very strong to have withstood coming off. Congratulations
Well done

I'm on 20mg and even tapering 1mg fucks me up mentally. Insane depression/apathy, brain fog, de-realization etc.
Take it easy ,take your time methadone its the worst drug to detox i get detox a year ago after 19 0lus years and i stil feel like crap ,its bad i still have chills ,diarrheas ,i mind all the F simptoms...and the worst part its your brain so depress, its hard for real.
Drs know nothing. They don't understand the difference between this and other opiods.2 yrs after I. Got on methadone I had a liver transplant a then other surgeries. So much pain. Methadone got me through. I have pain issues still. But I doing know what is real. I didn't know withdraw was a killer. I had 10 mgs 16 hrs ago. Now every part of me hurts. I won't make til morning. Another 5 will help. I never take more than 15mgs A day. Usually 10. I don't know what to do. I am 70 and getting old is hard, too. My spine is in bad shape. No one to talk to who understands.
I tried 2 mls every 3 weeks and on the 9 week i was fucked up and had to go back up again. Now i go down 1 ml every 3 weeks. Im at 45 from 75. I want off but slowly . I dont want to hurt myself and get a heart attack or sumthing from not having it for afew days. 1 ml gets me messed up for a week then i adjust. S ucks but its better than going up a ml every time.
Get better dude and take care. Have a better day!

You still here bro
How are you mate. My advice is drop 5mls every two weeks so your body adjust. Once you reach 30mls go down 2mls every two weeks. Don't come off alcohol at the same time as that can be lethal. Take your time and allow your body to settle on the new dose before dropping again. I was never a drinker so I can't help with alcohol except to say drink enough to be fine but don't drink to get drunk. You can beat this.
Hope you are doing okay. Let us know

I went through it in the summer of 2008 I quit 40mgs cold turkey because i had been taking it daily for 18 months without a prescription and was never documented.I had been through oxy and hydrocodone withdrawal before but methadone withdrawal is the only thing that made me shake uncontrollably and the discomfort was 10 times worse like burning alive except you don't get to die.One of if the hardest things ive been through and seemed like it was never gonna end but after about 3 or 4 months it slowly started to get better and 6 to fully recover..I'll never get on it again unless i find out im dying a certain death from a disease or somthing because then I wont have to worry about going through the hellish withdrawal again.Dont believe all the literature about it either withdrawal might be a little delayed but it damn sure aint mild and lasts a helluva lot longer than 14 days its more like 114 days.
Didnt sleep for a month worst brutal withdrawls i ever experienced. Was wishing after 2 weeks i had just cold turkey heroin instead. Methadone is no joke to kick
I know , tar is easier to shake.
Been off 15 months. Still yawning, teary eyed and sore. Not too sore but the psychological crap is exhausting. If there’s one thing it’s the extreme yawning. I expect WAY more progress by now. It’s disheartening for sure. Worth it in the end but when the hell does this end? Detox yourself. Methadone is too hard to get off. The progress is far too slow. You can’t map it because of this.

Everyone's different. So much depends on length of use, dose, mindset and how you taper. I was on methadone for 30 years (now opioid free 4 years). Even with a long, slow taper (which helped minimize AWS) the PAWS was brutal and lasted over 1.5 years. If you count the lack of energy/motivation, you could say my PAWS continues to this day. Then again it could just be that I'm getting old!
Well done, it’s a bitch isn’t it?
@@popsomniferum Thank you and yeah it was miserable. Even with a strong will, it's tough to fight when you have no energy. I try to tell anyone looking to quit methadone to be prepared for a brawl. But in the end it was clearly worth the fight as I feel better now than I ever did on methadone.
Very happy for you. I did opiates during my twenties. Spent the first half of thirties on this junk. The second half recovering from it. I did it long and slow also. PAWS is a bitch! Takes the body and mind a long time to heal

Take it very slow. There is no rush when tapering. If you're on a high dose, 1mg a week until you reach 50mg, then drop 1mg every 2 weeks until you are off. You should have very minimal, if any, withdrawals if you follow that taper schedule
Agreed. I have seen Soo many people at my clinic rush there detox and after they take there last dose literally the next day or 2 there back to shooting smack or smoking fentanyl for a couple months then come walking back into the clinic.... It's fucking depressing as hell watching the exact same situation over and over
Going into withdrawal at its near height is like being on fire , but you're not aflame. Its horrendous.
Been on methadone for 24 years, dose was 270mg/day for 18 of those years, decided to slowly reduce (5mg every 2 weeks) until I reached 100mg then 2mg/month & now I’m at 38mg. So far absolutely zero discomfort but will that continue & what’ll happen when I hit the big ZERO??? Definitely 1 day @ a time for me & no looking back!
Good luck ❤
WTF-270MG, I thought 80 was alot.
I’ve been on methadone for about 7 years now or so, during Covid I definitely got way to comfortable and I regret it so much cuz that would of been the perfect time for me to really focus on tapering I did a little bit but it was almost impossible to taper when they were giving us 30 takehomes at once. I was at 110 at one point but I’ve dropped down to 89mg now. Recently I’ve been having some strange side effects and of course the clinic or my personal doctor didn’t really help me. Yesterday I took my dose and my heart rate is just been really iffy, going up n down at resting rate and just that overall feeling of severe anxiety. I do smoke weed a lot and I thought that might help lol but it just heightened everything and made it so much worse lol. But I never have had that problem with smoking weed, it’s always helped me with my eating habits and nausea. It’s also helped me out extremely in the past with my anxiety issues. Anyway my heart rate yesterday was going up to 120ish but I would be able to control it and make it go back down to the 90s but it would go back n forth for awhile. Then when i finally got it back down to normal I was able to take a nap, woke up felt so much better. But today at work I took my dose on my break at 10:30am as I always do and I just felt so anxious all day long. Idk what’s going on with me. It’s scary as hell I just want to feel normal, this crap is so annoying. I’m scared I’m having heart problems, I’m also worried about my teeth and things going on in my life so I feel like that could be adding to everything.
Your heart rate sounds like a magnesium deficiency. Get some good Magnesium Glycinate or Bisglycinate.

On lower doses,
Every 2 week is way to fast ( for me )
You drop in dose then take 2 weeks for you body to adjust. Then your dropping again so your not get a rest before dropping again.
How do you get 1 mg? I take 5 mg tablets. I'm down to 10 mg in the morning and occasionally 5 mg at night for pain.I don't know if my pain is real or caused by the methadone wearing off. I've tried many times to get off of it, getting down to 5 mgs, but my body goes into spasms. I've been knit for 18 yrs. I'm 70 years old. I had a problem with pain pills starting in 1990. My Dr is clueless.
@sonniquickpianoimprov2231 yeh that what happened to me. Remember it your detox not there's say to them your feelings terrible and want to do slow detox. Tell them you want come down 1 Mill every 3 weeks that way you won't feel terrible. My worst thing was restless leg syndrome it was terrible but reducing slowly dose help with withdrawal. You could even ask to come down 1 Mill a mth.
@sonniquickpianoimprov2231 or ask to go on buprenorphine tablets they come in. 2mills 1 Mill half Mill. My friend just switched over to them an finds it better than methadone an they can reduce it to half Mill. Each reduction. I'm going on to them once I reach 3 Mills.
@sonniquickpianoimprov2231 problem with methadone tablets or methadone is once you reach 2 Mills they don't do down any further so buprenorphine would be great for you
*Methadone withdrawal can feel overwhelming at times. Keeping in regular contact with your healthcare team, if you have one, can help make the process*
Man they don't give a fuck about any drug adict ,period ..i mind they help you to get hook any any other drug😅. I was in methadone for 19 and i ask for help to detox for over 10 years i try so many times i end up going back to high dose ,finally 2 years ago i jump at 1 mg and good lord i still feel like shit its bad how i feel anf no Dr can't help they just tell me get to subuxone wish i use for 2 years too n its the same to detox or go back to methadone and i say NOOOO i have enough in all those years...i live one day at time its easy relapse then go back to methadone 😢..fuck methadone.
They don't care about you and your addiccion they worry about your money.
Been on methadone for about 14 years. Circumstances left me to leave the clinic and jump off at 28mgs 3 days ago. I was stable at that dose for several a years. The withdrawals are pretty minor to say the least. Major thing is my nose is just constantly wet but aside from that and some anxiety, it’s been pretty smooth. Don’t really have the option to go back to the clinic and I couldn’t get my hands on heroin even if I tried. Only option is getting clean and I’ve never been more ready for it. I’ve attempted several times but you really have to be in the right mindset in order to get through it.
He's talking about buprenorphine more so, bcuz it also acts as an antagonist which last longer than agonists. Methadone is a protein bound opioid that means in your tissue or fat. It builds a reservoir in your tissue. I believe it's treated with a diethyl ether since it's fully synthetic, right ??
I was at 120 I'm now at 10. Just called about 15 minutes ago to drop down to 6. Then I decided to youtube some videos. This was the first one I found. It's possible. Ive done it slow and steady over this past year. Take it slow. Take it steady don't rush. And it's possible.
I came here looking for help I found out im the one to give help 10 years of heroin addiction it's gonna take me another 7 days and it's all over

Methadone is worse than pure morphine so why dont they prescribe morphine instead
I didn't have any sickness.Mostly sneezing,sore legs and insomnia.
If you are 20 years and been on methadone for a week you don't feel nothing but if you are on it for years the worst its about to come😮.
methadone, the satanic pain coming from hell.
I’m on 13mg right now from 189 mg. I’ve been on methadone for 7 LONG years. I’m going down 1mg a month and besides depression and ALWAYS being tired I will occasionally get restless leg syndrome and prickly skin. I take an otc sleep aid every night and that helps me sleep. I’m scared of how bad withdrawals will get when I get lower. I haven’t experienced full blown withdrawal since I decided to drop my dose just the random rls and prickly skin every few weeks. Is it the same for everyone? Will I feel really bad even if I taper to 1mg? Not gonna lie.. these comments are scaring me.
Same. I’m at 61mg from 120mg. I’ve been on for 6 years. It has flown by, I never thought I’d still be on it. I’m doing 1-3mg per month. These comments are scaring the ever living shit out of me. I haven’t had any withdrawals yet except maybe some depression while I’ve now cut my dose in half it’s taken 2 years and will be another 2 before I’m done. But I was sincerely hoping this is how I will be able to come off without any serious withdrawal because I just don’t handle withdrawal well in any serious capacity.
1 mg a month its o right ,i was on methadone for 19 years drop 1 mg a week and i get out at 5 mg and my good lord 17 months i still feel the whitdraws, its not the same for everybody cus you may be younger and use it for 7 years ,not me i am 53 years and i use it for so long you know..good luck ok.
Hey wanted to speak with you. I was on 170MG for 11 years. Went from 170 down to 14 and back up to 30 because of the RLS and sleep. Went from 30 down 2.5 every two days and got to 15 and went 5 a day, on the 19 th was my last dose, it's now the 29th and the symptoms aren't even close to what I thought it was going to be, although not comfortable, they are completely manageable, I have two months to get better Im lucky enough to have a father who's letting me get my shit together, you can do it, I'm the weakest person I know ND IT'S been 9 days and I thought it was going to b so brutal and it's not, do WHAT I did and your no longer a slave, you womt feel great but In a few months you'll be glad you did it.
I'm 35 years old male wanted to add that because age and gender seem to help with helping others identify with others
@user-iv8gt2sw9u hey! I was wondering if you can tall to me about detoxing from methadone I wanna do it but I'm scared and you seemed to do it well.
120 hour HALF life? so you're telling me it lasts for 240 hours?
I was only on 60mg and it took me almost 10 months to get off it. I'm on 2mg per day and will be off it completely in about 3 weeks. Go slow. Gabapentin and Xanax help but don't just trade one addiction for another. Good luck. I should be dead but I'm alive. Thank God.
If you touch xanax you will relapse or get back to methadone don't do it ok.
You DO get sick if you miss one day. Not missing a day would be my top priority.
I get a days grace n I'm on 60ml
@13lueBomber How are you feeling lately? Are you wanting to taper or are you off? Sending healing vibes, love and prayers!!!💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪✌️✌️✌️✌️❤️
Missing a day methadone isn't a problem because the methadone you took the day before is still in your body you get little uncomfortable but it be OK
If only it were that simple. I’ve been on ‘done 45 years. Started on 80 came off for a year, (after a looooong taper), but went back on as was still craving. Now on 100. I am a fast metaboliser and still have to to split my dose to make it through the night. I have tried not splitting but it’s way too uncomfortable. All different I guess. Get 6 t/a a week so very fortunate really.
@@Hhhhaaattt not the way it worked for me, but right on! Everyone is different! Positive vibes, love and prayers to you all!!!💪💪💪💪💪💪💪✌️✌️✌️❤️
I’d tapered down to 40mg and quit full stop. Took just under a month for the withdrawals to conclude. I WISH It had been 120 hours
This guy just said 36 hours. Lol. I'm on a week and it's hell on earth.
Wish I used morphine to ween off, instead of going on liquid hand cuffs.
Sorry sir, but you are completely wrong. I have been on Methadone for exactly 31 years. I do go into withdrawal if I miss a day. That's why it is prescribed daily. Worrying stuff.
😅😂 31 years I think it's time to raise your dose little
I been on it for like 8 years and the highest I was at was 123, I’m down to 30 mls now and gunna continue tapering slowly!
@@S.O.T.CGood for you. You can do it. Don't quit
I'm down to 10 but my body protests loudly if I go further.
Take your time stop in 10 mg ND give your body time to ill them drog just 1 mg every 2 weeks ok.
And please for those that are saying it took them 2 years or 4 years you ain't helping no one here
If you do it the the right way, it takes that long.

Hey doc I think you should include that it dont last 24 hours even 140mg doesn't so i have to split my dose.
Not saying your wrong but not juat me a small percentage of people it doesnt have the half life it claims.
I have 23 years of liquid methadone addiction to back me up and the only way i got off it was to be either on speed or loads of benzos like xanax I went 11 days without it and on the 12 I folded and wemt back on it mad thing is ypu have use first (do heroin) before they will put you back on it.
Imagine the worst flu ever while feelong so achy you just cant move but it hurts so much you ant sleep eat or feel comfortable then
Theres the depression which has led me me to several intentional overdoses.
Its hell what can i do doc
I highly recommend never getting on methadone prolly the worst decision i ever made in life. Was on it for 10 years and just got stuck there now im 6 months clean and still battling everyday feels like it will never end.
I can so relate. Wishing you to get better soon

Sir I'm addicted to heroin I'm sorry for texting you but it's the truth I'm a heroin addict and methadone is available does methadone helps
Hi Ali-Methadone, buprenorphine, and naltrexone are the 3 proven forms of medication-assisted treatment (MAT) for opioid use, including heroin. Almost everyone with Opioid Use Disorder needs some kind of MAT in early recovery, while they are developing the coping skills and making the other changes needed to stay in long term recovery. Each of those 3 medications works best in certain circumstances so please discuss with your doctor. Best wishes!
@@thecolemaninstituteforaddi6234 I really appreciated this sir I will . God bless
@@alishour5519 if you can’t stay off heroin then maybe methadone is a thing for life but that’s a better alternative. However, if you wanna be free of opioids don’t bother. It’s too hard to get off and kicking heroin (I’m assuming it’s cut with fentanyl) might actually be easier.
@@nyk3334 fentanyl injection was given to me didn't work bro the only med that worked was physptone after 48 hours it worked felt good but all I'm trying to say if methadone can work my doctor told me if you want we will put you on methadone it's a replacement drug so I rejected it's like from fry pan to fire .

How fast can you get addicted to it?? I want to get on it but I’ve heard its soooo addicting
I've been on it for 10 years and I never found it addicting. It's taken me 5 years to go from 110 to 2mgs that I'm on now. The only thing I ever felt was EXTREME tiredness, which I absolutely hated! And the first year I felt nothing at all, just less cravings. The only thing that makes it addicting is just simply HAVING to take it everyday to avoid the pain of withdraw
Just a few days, don't do it if possible.
I've tried and tried. When I get too low, 5 mgs My body goes into spasms my legs kick and my arms want to hit something. I can't make it. I take some to make it stop. Drs have no clue about M withdraw. Today I read the summary from my last Dr visit. He says I'm stable on methadone for LOW BACK PAIN. I don't have low back pain, but I guess he needs a reason to prescribe it. I do have pain issues. In in a wheelchair from a broken leg that heal right. I have osteoporosis from liver cirrhosis from hep C ( liver transplant) and have broken quite a few bones. I don't know what my real pain level is. Maybe I can't stop now. Too late to have better quality of life without it.
@@kellyburns1209 Yeah, you really need it to feel normal. Your body just goes hay wire and feels really off if you don't take it.
@@sonniquickpianoimprov How old are you? It absolutely will be a lot tougher at an older age, and you seem to have a lot of serious health problems, all of which will make it a lot harder to come off, and the withdrawals will be worse. You can always stop, but you have to want it. You likely need to come down real slow, especially when it gets bad. I hope you can get there though.
How hard is 30mg detox?
That's what I detoxed from, of course tapering down for 3 months first, maybe 4. It was pretty rough for me for about 90 days and then the paws but everyday is not bad
I was always told how bad it would be. I completely disagree on my behalf. I have taken them all and off 140 mg cold turkey it was very mild compared to heroin fentanyl and even hydros or percs. I have been through every cold turkey withdrawal there is and Xanax is the only one I should've died from. For what it's worth.
BS.you was in methadone for short time i bet ,thats why you say that ,heroin whitdraws, xanax ,perc are joke compare to methadone i use methadone for 19 years i detox that shit 15 months ago and i still feel like shit ,shit methadone its the worst drug to detox and the longer to detox ..
That's a very bad one to come off of Xanax I've been on it for years I cannot even go a day without it or I'm sick crying emotional and depressed
Na,na,na keep it real you maybe was on methadone for couples months or weeks cuz if you was in methadone for years you won't say that for sure ,something else you ain't get cold turkey you get high in something cuz methadone its the worst drug to detox, heroin xanax or whatever its a walk in the park beside methadone 😂.
Bro I’m sitting here reading all these comments about how horrible methadone is and how it takes years to get off and years after that to even feel normal again. I got on it because I thought there was no way it could be worse than fentanyl withdrawal but now im psyching myself out thinking I made a huge mistake. If your comment is true it’ll make me feel so much better. If you have any advice I’d really appreciate it
Ibogain???❤

Shut the front door that you can miss a drink at the clinic and be ok…been on 90 mls for 5 years and 2 hours passed my drink time and I’m sweating and shaking…
Same😢 I'm having such a hard time. How the hell do I do this
I’ve been on methadone for over 30 years and still use a couple of times a week does anyone think it would be possible to stop the done and just use the heroin till done is out of system and then reduce heroin bit by bit then jump off what do people think about that ?
That's literally what a doctor told me to do. I had done one of those stupid rapid detox things off methadone and a month later I was still in withdrawals, like full on stuff . I eventually rang a doctor who knew what he was talking about and he said the best thing he advised was to start using again for 3 months then try another detox. That one worked perfectly. I know you're not talking about doing the rapid detox but I reckon getting it out of your system is what's gonna make it easier
@@bellab8412 thank you.
My boyfriend is about to go through withdrawals. He’s very scared. The clinic said his urine shows no traces . This is the second time that has happened. I watch him take it every day. He’s on 105 ml and the said they drop him to 10 ml so he is panicking over the withdrawal. What should he do
I feel for him and you! I went into detox when I finally got down to 30mg from 120mg it was the hardest drug I ever came off of! I've been off only 5 months but you couldn't pay me to even take one now! It's the worst of the worst when it comes to withdrawal!! I'd say he should go into detox!! But you gotta really want off of them!!! Best of luck!!!!
@@SueMarshallprice-iz2fg shit i was in methadone for 19 years and i get out of that handcuff 13 months ago and i still feel like shit ,i jump from 5 mg and it was hell the first 6 months so be cold turkey its not easy to say then done.
The panic is part of opiate withdrawal. He'll be terrified before he gets any symptoms. He can do this though. It's absolutely torture, especially on a high dose like that, but it's doable at the same time. He needs to just stick with it. Make sure you support him a ton. Most people are extremely anxious and unhappy when they aren't on their dose any more. Not just physical, but extremely mentally messed up. It's really tough to deal with, but he can do it.
