I have been on methadone for 6 years now, originally going on it due to addiction. One year ago my dose was 200mg/day, a massive dose seeing as I am only 5'5" and 170 lbs. Since then, I have tapered to 100mg/day reducing my dose by 5mg every 6 weeks. Up until a month ago I had absolutely no withdrawal symptoms to speak of- my goal was to get to 100mg and I am there but all of a sudden I started having severe, unfounded anxiety. It is just a free floating dread that seeps into my entire life... I am constantly asking myself "what is the point?" destroying any peace I may find in my day. I am always just dreading the rest of the day, and the day after that, and the day after that... Is this a withdrawal symptom? Why would I be completely fine until 105 mg and then have my anxiety go sky high? Please help...I can't work, I can't live, I can't enjoy any of the things I normally enjoy. Every moment is panic- sorry I know that is dramatic but that is how I feel. I am on prozac, and remeron and I have started taking magnesium, niacin and 5-htp to try and help with the panic but there hasn't been much improvement. Will this go away?
