There's a reason they call it the treatment industry. Remember that. They're in it to make money, and methadone is very expensive.
NA doesn't cost a dime. If you toss a buck or two in the basket, great, but you don't have to. And unless you're a real morning person and have a.m. meetings available, you don't have to rise before dawn to get there.

Damn straight, there's a bunch of very evil, very greedy people making a lot of money out of this...
good luck DaveFLBrn, and I think you've made the right choice too - the next question has to be - how are you going to manage your pain without narcotics? Are you still in pain, or are you over that and just dealing with the drug addiction?
I swear, sometimes it sounds like these Drs have got people addicted to drugs on purpose, just so they can cash in. There's a few threads like this around today, just making me angry - so I'll leave it at that, and wish you all the best Dave - I used to be a heroin addict too, and trust me - you do NOT want to take Methodone, it's evil stuff.
8 or 9 years? That's insanity!
