I’ve been taking methadone for a long time, the precription isn’t mine tho. I’m trying to quit cold turkey, but it’s very hard and it’s only been 4 days.

Everyone is different and also depends how long you have been doing it

there isn’t any set amount of time it takes to get off of it. you shouldn’t quit cold turkey, you should wean yourself off of it, otherwise you can get very sick and sometimes its so unbearable you may even have to go to the hospital. the easiest way to do it is to go to a detox center, sometimes they have them in hospitals, and a lot of the time insurance covers it. the longer you’ve been taking the methadone and the amount you’ve been taking at a time both have a say in how long it will take for you to get completely sober. did you know that methadone is more addicting than heroin?
