Question by Ashley F: anyone know anything about addiction/recovery/methadone?
Hi.i am just curious of others experiences. My husband and I have been on methadone for a year now. at a local methadone treatment center in our area. We have 3 kids. and our lives have improoved 9483% since treatment. we been together a total of 5 years and the first 3 were nothing but insance drug abuse.(herione,pills,oxy’s,cocaine,and crack cocaine) we said enoughs enough and went into treatment without looking back, even moved to get away from drug dealers to advoid some temptations.My ? is tho, how long do u think I should stay in recovery? Im scared to be there “Forever”…but i dont thikn im ready to come out yet. I still go thru withdrawn some in the A.m. before my dose.It has saved our relationship and family.this clinic. so im glad for that. but can it do more harm then good in the long run? should we get into counceling? any one with any info im all ears! i kno what the ppl say at the clinic, My dr. and nurses and stuff.

Methadone—how many mg,s a day?–I know a girl that could not give up 5mg a day–until she realized she was still holding on, and she stopped–
case#2 a girl takes 265mg a day–ya that’s right!!
well her husband wanted to try some and mixed it with water,and died
265 mg–you are not trying–taper off-the clinics do not care –you do it–

case #3–a guy was on it for11 yrs–think that is a little long?
he,s off it now he woke up dead
suboxone–know about that?–group therapy, subox–and help from GOD–ya I say that–you will get off the methadone–
some more info on your meta done–you know who first made it and why?
Nazi Germany–so they could shoot the wounded once a day–with a needle–not every 4 hrs
I hate the stuff–it keeps people junkies
You can do it –how bad do you want it??That is it in a nut shell.
I believe in you and your husband–1 step @ a time.
