hi guys,
hope you are all doing ok this morning.
Lyoness regarding methadone detox, its a b*tch....... having said that taking it meant I could organize my life somewhat without waking every morning sick and have to score my DOC (heroin) i had been mainlining bout 3 years before my first methadone detox then started smoking it (convinced myself that this was a better option than mainlining , oh the insanity of addiction....) after about 6 years back using ~(had a very small break whilst pregnant, like 3 months before my son was born) decided enough was enough I had been buying methadone on the street every week so i was really getting sick of having to take something ,anything to feel ok and normal.
12 days in and I'm pretty much over most of it, I'm still very drained but shakes / shivers / runnys etc have stopped thank the lord....
mentally I wouldn't have made it this far without SR and talking to you guys, so big thanks to all posting on these threads (lyoness , S0444, sick& tired and more recently tlh)
I'm the kinda person who can give out great advice but have probs taking it myself , so talking to you guys is kinda like giving myself advice and realizing that I'm not the only person in the world who is going through this. you guys make me feel like I might actually have a shot this time so thanks......
