Question by jms5881: What would the best way to get off Methadone?
I have been at a Methadone clinic for 2 years and I feel it would be the best if I came off it now.

Thank you.

Try hypnotherapy, it will help a lot as a proffessional hypnotherapist can stop your addictions and habits, and will help you to relax and overcome your fears and dependance on the drug.
