Hey I quit methadone cold turkey on Jan. 9 2006, and it was one of the hardest things I will ever go through.

Im am now having problems with substitution with alcohol. I started using opiates as a replacement for alcohol, and now I am substituting with alcohol, because the the withdrawl from methadone was so bad. I am at the point where the withdrawl is berebal, and I want to quit

I will succede with the abstinance of all substances, but it has been a very hard road. I still crave opiates, even after a strong will against using them. I just wonder how long it will take for me to feel normal?

Others will be here, kshow; Hang on...
I do know that your body needs to return to homeostasis - an equilibrium.
But, this is not my forte. And others with ESH will be here to answer your concerns.
Glad you found it!

Shalom!

I too had a huge problems with prescription meds...any of them and recently stopped AGAIN !!!! I started to substitue alcohol and am really struggling with abstaining from drinking. It is real hard and i know exactly what you are going through. Go to meetings if possible. Keep posting. I started posting here then relapsed and just came back. It does help to have someone to bend thier ears. Good luck and know that you are not alone. It is really hard but believe in yourself and stay positive
