im 46 and was on 30mgs a night for a few years. I just quit cold turkey 12 days ago. ive been exercising, taking 20 minut saunas, and trying to eat really healthy foods. I dont do any other drugs. I however have been taking phenphedrine ( diet pill), to help increase my energy during the day for working out and to lose weight. So far on the 12th day of no methadone ive not experienced any of the horror storie withdrawal symtoms everyone writes about. I do however have insomnia and mild diahrea and occasional sneezing. I know these symptoms are my body telling me it wants methadone.But i can handle this. I just want to know how much longer till i feel 100% again. IM aware it takes awhile and why but please somebody smarter than me give me something to shoot for, how much longer. A couple days,---a week,--2weeks??
for detoxing off 30mg 12 days ago....as for the energy thing it can take a wile to come back
your withdrawal was mild so should your post withdrawal energy crash ...I wish I could tell you a date or even an aprox date but its different for everyone my withdrawal was long
and fairly hard the energy thing took months for me to get back to normal but like I said your withdrawal was minor so should be your recovery time count your blessings
good luck and God bless......Gnarly
