10MG Methadone Question; Will the Thomas Recipe help me?

[Moddesty]

I have been addicted to 10-20mg of methadone per day for a better part of my life and I can't do it anymore. I cannot self taper I lack the strength to do so. But for the last year or so I've only been on 10mg/day and I can no longer do this to myself (have a family to take care of) I seriously need help and advise on how to do this.. I can't go to a clinic (lack of a will to do so) I realise the risks of doing this but I can no longer do this to myself and I need a way out. I have adverse reactions to benzo's so an alternative to the vallume would be cool.

Hi....well your on a low dose so that will help...we suggest you get into the single digets to stpo  10mg is still enough to make the detox ruff   just know we have a lot of members who have jumped at a lot higher doses and made it...there is some vitamins that will help witth withdrawal  you can pick it up at walmart for 6 bucks  it is a 3 in one calcium/magnesium/zinc  take 4 with breakfast and 4 with dinner  in a few days it will cut down on the withdrawals.....there is no get out of jail free card with this drug....the withdrawal last about 10 days to 2 weeks  the biggest compliant is the lack of sleep and the ''energy crash''  that can go on a wile  just know it is possible to break free of this drug   I was at 150mg for almost 7yrs and I survived  keep posting for support where here for you......................Gnarly...........................

Hey there... Yes, the Thomas recipe does help. It doesn't make it a walk in the park though. Sleep is the biggest thing that will be physically frustrating, so if you Could find a way to get some Clonidine, blood pressure meds, they prescribe like .01 mg couple times a day it will help with anxiety and sleep. And hopefully you can afford some good vitamins.
