I have been weening myself by self medicating here and there. What works for me may not work for you, but I’d love to hear your story with this crap! Please…. Love to hear from anyone effected by this methadone issue. ✌🏼❤️#opiates #Controlled substance #Journey #medication #paws #lupus #prescription #narcotics #addiction #detox #drugs #pills #life #opiatewithdrawal #Opioidwithdrawal #Opioidepidemic #detoxing #opioids #Klonopin #hydrocodone #oxycodone #prescriptions #pharma #pharmasuticals #doctor #slavery #substance abuse #sobriety #cleanish #meds

    I've been on for 28 years. The one time I was off I started to relapse and was worse than ever, shooting heroin, sniffing a bundle at a time. So I got back on. That was in 2010. Right now I've confined myself in a residential drug treatment program after detoxing from my other major drug problem, Benzos, Xanax and Klonopin. I have no plans to put the methadone down right now, I know myself too well. Just being honest. I'm an educated guy, I have a degree in film from NYU. I got hooked in the punk rock scene in the 80s. I wish you only the very best.

      @@justinpell3760 I'm prescribed Trazodone for sleep. I do know about Seroquel, but the Trazodone seems to work. I'm not bipolar or ADHD; my diagnosis is depression, anxiety (with panic attacks), and OCD. I'm now on 160mg. Methadone, but I haven't used any narcotics other than methadone in 1 yr., 9 months. I'm okay in some ways but, sitting around in this drug program mostly designed as an alternative to being incarcerated for people facing serious felony charges is not the best. I have no legal issues, I'm here voluntarily, but I don't have much freedom and there's a lot of incredibly petty bullshit and abuse of power. I've gained weight and have some potentially serious health issues; decreased blood flow to my brain and increasingly high blood pressure. I swear, I was healthier doing a lot of drugs LOL!

    I have been on methadone for two years now. I was on 70mgs daily and have tapered myself down to 40mgs as of today. I've been decreasing by 5mgs a month and have no withdrawal so far. There is alot of negativity about MAT from people with no experience. All I can say is with this fentanyl crisis that is going on my friends on MAT are still alive. I have lost so many dear friends and even my brother. I'm weaning off the Methadone and don't plan on being on it for ever but iam beyond the shadow of a doubt convinced that I would be dead if it wasn't for MAT. EVERYONES PATH IS DIFFERENT!!! I hope all is well bro and keep on keeping on.

    Hello! I am now in my 4th month of getting off of Methadone COLD TURKEY on my own. Just quit! Had enough! It's been awful. Like you say there is just so much you go through and when does your mind start to feel normal. I have what I call blackouts where something happens earlier in the day and I don't remember it until later that day. Also one minute I'm fine and the next I'm in a full blown panic attack for no reason. My mind races always. Cannot sleep through the night. The worst part is I feel like my brain is so screwed up and it won't ever get back to normal. They don't explain any of this at the Methadone clinic. Once you get off it it's like you are on your own. I hope people start sharing there experiences on this Methadone withdrawal on your channel. I'm also Interested hearing other people's situations with this withdrawal. Thank you for sharing your journey!

      Methadone is the longest studied opioid on earth. I personally feel it is superior in the sense that it is very long acting. Therefore one's brain/ liver is not constantly experiencing extreme highs and lows, but a steady plateau if you will. That also aids in recovering from the addiction of the process of popping pills every few hours, or needing to have any medication on you whatsoever if you dose once daily at the clinic.

But most things get better after day 33. Each year that we have taken methadone, need one month to rehab, 7years=7 months or 12 years need 12 months to rehab

Its diffrent for everyone after 30 days I felt a surge of energy followed as you said by waves of depression I wouldn't advise doing it on my own it brings up so many memories hold on to good memories watch old films you used to watch as a child be good to yourself try come out of your comfort zone and remember your addiction is doing push ups as you sleep it takes support and time I found not isolating to be good but with all the sweat and covid people run from me..meeting work for some..

      @@FitzSchlitz thank you so much... Day 5/6 today (took half a dose on Monday at 6am ...) Feeling a bit better this AM.
      You know I must say my son and I were sick and I think my mind almost tricked me into thinking I was fighting a bit of the flu. So maybe I was a bit fortunate in the mind over matter department. I also am staying with my parents 45 minutes in the middle of no where haha so it's not like I could've just went okay this is to hard back to the doctor!
      But my symptoms were/are mostly;
      Day 2/3 bad tummy (if ya'll catch my drift)
      Muscle aches
      Severe tiredness & laziness
      Hot and cold flashes
      STARVING... But for healthy food mostly protein.
      Lastnight I had a bit of the "brain zaps"
      Anxiety/palpations
      But they are so manageable.
      My biggest advice to anyone is repairing your body. VITAMIN C megadosing and normal amount of vitamin D. Http5 for brain health... And eat as much healthy food as you can handle.
      I'm going into the field of Addiction just finished my degree and my main goal is to make those aware of this so called "medicine" prepare people if they must take it ... Because I was never educated or prepared I was basically a number

I didn't know why, I thought I had a serious flu? Got back home that 3rd evening and I figure I would take meds. 2hrs later and I was completely fine, like nothing ever happened. Slept like a baby that night!! Woke up knowing the Methadone was the issue. My other meds were for blood pressure. I did my research online and found out what I had instore. I took the next week off work and shit and puked, awake for 5 days straight, body aches out of a horry movie.. you all know. Doctors told me it will pass in a day or 2. Luckily my friend gave me small doses of Kratom at day 10. It definitely helped!! I took me around 6 months to feel and sleep normal again.

    Jesus my dude... I didn't realize how bad you had it... I didn't know it lasted this long... I currently just commented your other video saying I was about to get off other stuff... But never in my life have I felt or heard 22 an "Electric fence" 22 days in. And the crazy part is that I always withdrawaled longer than anyone I knew... (Assuming due to my metabolism) But I never withdrawed from methadone... Mostly opiates + Fent... And while people seemed to be better in 1 week... I took about 20 days to feel normal. After 10 days i was upset and dealing with the hot/cold sweats and restless body... but the only time I felt something like an electric fence was the first 5 days of getting off FEntanyl... I remember screaming in my pillow and punching my bed on occasion... It was a living hell...
    I hope you are still off everything... I made videos of myself during my withdrawal and I still have them on my phone... It kept me sober for 4 years....
    Watching myself look miserable/deflated/sneezing and nasty kept me from using... But for some reason I didnt remind myself this relapse...
    Never want to go through this again... day 1 off of Fent starts 2maro. Once I get off this in a week... Then I will work on drinking... Ugh.

    I tell you what I was on 87 migs and got freaking tired of them not wanting to taper me down and giving them 420.00 a month. So I just decided to stop going. I was good the first week cause I still had 4 take homes left and was splitting that in 3 days each bottle. And when I ran out wow here came the withdrawal and I work so it’s hell trying to keep your head on straight while withdrawing. So I went get kratom. Tonight is my first time taking it I took 2 and it really is helping. Im still real cold but my heart is not beating out of my chest. And I can think.

    Hey Fritz I would like the qualify my past twenty years of using methadone. Ow at the age of 67 with Mt doctor fed up with government intervention retired. I took a leap of faith which was insanity. I should have been under doctors care a whole team for that matter. That’s not what I did. I already had gone off the meds for a short two weeks years past and felt unable to care for myself. I have taken zero methadone since last year. My first three weeks of cramps headaches no desire to eat no sleep week after week. I couldn’t sit…I could stank…I could and did bang my head against the wall. I never said it was prescribed for my pain and worked well enough for me to function and continue my career. We can talk but let me reassure you some things are not easy and don’t be afraid to get help. Wish I did. Methadone alters your brain chemistry and perception of pain.

      I'm on day 8. Gabapentin is your friend if you can get it. Other than that I've heard kratom helps. Besides that are only riskier options like a slow opiate taper over like 4 or 5 days starting 2 or 3 days after you get off the methadone so ur starting to detox. I had to use the last option. But I realized how much the 300mg gabapentin my mom gave me helped once I took them day 5 (weirdly they helped better with methadone withdrawal than when I tried them with opiate withdrawal.) The opiates were barely touching the withdrawal symptoms but it was a little relief for a bit. I don't advise anyone to just go use!! I only smoke D and I've never used needles so this is completely different than relapsing on a needle!!!. I smoked or sniffed very small amounts in the morning, afternoon, and bed time to help sleep. I progressively did less until bedtime day 4. It definitely helped get me through those first four horrible days. Day 5 was still kind of shitty and couldn't sleep much and was SO dizzy throughout it all too on top of the anxiety, hot and cold sweats and restless legs and worst of all the seering pain down to the bone in EVERY single joint in my body. It was much of the same until last night (day 7). Day 6 was spotty, obviously the morning sucked but the afternoon wasn't bad but felt crappy at night again. Day 7 morning sucked and 100mg gabapentin every 3 or 4 hours got me through easier but obv sleep still sucked. Today, is day 8. Slept a tiny bit better (only woke up 3 times feeling like shit instead of like 10 the other nights due to fever sweats and anxiety/restlessness in my chest and legs. I should mention I smoked a bunch of weed throughought as needed for the almost crippling anxiety and to help fall back asleep. This morning was crappy but a little better than usual and the afternoon was better than yesterday but still some of the dizzyness, anxiety, restlessness, and can't find a comfortable position to sit or lay but I still feel alright now (8pm). Hopefully sleep will be better tonight and day 9 will start out good... only time will tell.** PSA** I'm not a trained professional and this is just how I did it personally. I was only on 58mg methadone after dropping myself from about 80 and everyone's doses and situations are different. Good luck and remember, we do recover...

(lupus) I was on 160mgs of methadone and 6mgs of klonopin a day for 20 years. My tapering process worked for me as best as I think it could.

    Was in a clinic on and off 15 years a true og heroin addict. I detoxed done atleast 10x fully the hellish withdrawals usually lasted about a month. I've been out the clinic a few years and now I just take it on weekends for the sole purpose of getting high. I get light withdrawals now if I stay on too long and don't let myself get completely clean before getting another bottle. But yea the sht lasts about a month for me when I'm fully stuck on it

      @@FitzSchlitz yea I've detoxed 120mg quite a few times. Methadone is so weird for me it feels like a full blown long lasting opiate high when I'm clean but if I'm on it for more than a month at a time daily it just eventually stops working how I want it to. It goes from a day long high when I'm clean to a 4 hour high that fizzles out once I've been on for a while. That's why I quit cold turkey so many times because it becomes pointless lol and at that point u still have to show up to the clinic lol. I know it sounds messed up but now the best for me is go clean 2weeks then dose 80 to 120mg lol then it's worth it because I'll actually catch nods. If there's no nods it's just not worth it😅 so I go completely clean then dose up...super dangerous lol but damn it's nice every now n then..I know this sounds like junky shht but honestly if I didn't give myself methadone breaks I'd b shooting dope. Been off the needle 4 solid years with this method of mine as crazy and dangerous as it sounds.

      @FitzSchlitz I think I may have commented a more detailed explanation of the detox itself on one of your other comments around the same time as this one.I believe the person's comment was from about 2 months ago, that were asking what you did to detox but it could've been a diff video I seen. Doing much better today than yesterday (day 9). (!! And tomorrow is looking like the day the majority of symptoms will be gone. (Obv there will probably be the occasional hot flash and the fever sweats were still very prevalent at night) hoping tonight will be better but I'm guessing that'll be a couple-few more days?.?.. My highest dose was 80mg of methadone and I've been going to the clinic since Oct. 2022. I had slowly worked myself down to 50 and just got sick of dealing with the clinics BS so I started only going every 3rd day to let at least a little Leach out of my system (was hoping btw, no clue if it helped but I've heard about worse/longer cases of withdrawal from 25mg) and then **I don't recommend anyone to use** I did a 4 day step down where I did a tiny bit of D in the morning, afternoon, and night to help ease the methadone withdrawal. (I'd like to point out that I only smoke or sniff it, I don't recommend relapse and especially not with a needle!) I used so little that it would gimme a reprieve for a couple hours, but it barely touched the methadone. Gradually reduced the amount over the 4 days. From day 5 on, during the day I used 100mg gabapentin and advil when symptoms started getting to me or my bones were hurting too bad. (would shoot for every 4 hours minimum but as needed if it got too bad) At night b4 bed I used 300mg gabapentin with 3 5mg melatonin. I got really lucky, a family member had a script of both mg gabapentin. Today, I've only taken 1-100mg and no advil as of yet. Ran out of melatonin last night so not sure how tonight will be, but only time will tell... **update** today is day 10. I slept like shit without the melatonin and still feeling a little off today due to lack of sleep and fever sweats last night. A shower helped, but I think a lot of today is mental too. I'm tapped out on sitting around streaming crap, and laying in bed with joint aches. Mobility is key, but it snowed last night and sleet and rain right now, so just currently litterally staring at the wall with anxiety. Hoping sleep tonight is better.
