I just cold turkey kicked 100 mg methadone, and it is the worst thing ive ever done.

Anything I can do to stop these massive withdrawl symptoms. Ive got benzos, they dont do NOTHING! Ive got some oxycodone and they barely knock the edge off. Ive made it almost 3 weeks now but im feeling like crawling out of my skin and going to hell. Any other suggestions, besides gettin back on the "liquid handcuffs"?

HI your best bet is going to be damage control this next one I usually give to people who are tapering off and having problems it cuts withdrawals in 1/2 its worth a try go up to wealmart and pick up a 3 in 1 vitamin calcium/magnesium/zinc.....take 4 in the mor4nig and 4 around dinner time I know your probablly not eating but give thes about 3 days and it should help.....it helps those coming off the right way and it worked for me other then that try to live in a hot tub it will take away the acks and pains this part shouldent last past a month but then your into stage 2 the post withdrawal that can last another couple of months you get an energy crash and no sleep the energy crash can be debilitating
exorsize helps and will help you now get out of the house and go for a walk even if you have to force yourself if you can make it around the block you will be doing good I re4ally feel for you I work with all the methadoinaion that come threw herewe have had others jump high b/4 it not pritty but it can be done just dont give up you can beat this thing good luck and God bless......Gnarly

tired of the clinic politics, 4 yrs i never had a dirty test. had a weeks worth of take homes for three of those yrs. And the hoops i had to jump thru as well as getting my take homes suspended for missing a meeting!!!! Efff those People that cant be a help to an addict unless those people have complete control over you. Its a hard decision to make but I cant go to a kindergarten meth. clinic.
