Need Inpatient Methadone Detox in NJ
Hi,
I am 44 and have been on methadone since my mid 20s. Always stayed on a lowish dose 40-60mg. Now, I have been on 15-20mg for over a year but when I try to go down I feel very uncomfortable. I just want off! Can anyone recommend a clinic/hospital in NJ that provides a semi-comfortable detox with meds and stuff? I don't want to quit cold turkey. What do they give you in these places? I am scared to do the at-home Suboxone because I've heard the precipitated wds can last weeks if the induction is done improperly. Help!
