HI WE have lots of members who have kicked methadone im one of them I spent 6 1/2yrs on the stuff your best bet to come off it is to slow taper it took me 8 1/2 mo to do it but it was well worth it it takes discipline and perseverance some times you just want to give up....you got to be in it for the long haul the key is to go fast enough to make progress but slow enough not to have to bad of withdrawals wile tapering when your ready to start let me know there are some supplements that can help out along the way I have helped many people off this drug and will be happy to help you also so just shoot me a start date and you to will be free of the liquid handcuffs
good luck and God bless........Gnarly
Hello and welcome to MH. Yes you can and will be happy again. There is hope and there is a road called recovery. You took the first step by coming here and wanting to re-claim your life.
Methadone is a slow taper. How many mgs are you on?
It is a drop of a couple mgs every few weeks. Your body needs to adjust to each drop.
Are you going to counseling? One on one is good and also a support group.
We are here to encourage you.
Stick around
Debbie
