I am posting for the first time. I just want to warn you you that Methadone is VERY addicting!! Please be careful!! I am now desperately trying to detox myself because I cannot afford the rapid approach. I have been doing this for a month and I am miserable. I can't sleep, my muscles ache, I am always angry, my nose is running, I sneeze all the time and now that I have gotten low enough (from 120mg/day to 55mg/day) I am having the pain. If God forbid, I run out of meds I get that flu like, going crazy feeling with the shakes, cold sweats and the feeling that I am going crazy. The worst part is that I am so weak, I can hardly do anything. I can barely drag myself out of bed to go to the bathroom sometimes. I wish I could go back in time and never take that methadone. Yes, it works for the pain, but I would rather have kept looking than to go through this now. Oh, another thing I forgot to mention but my husband wouldn't forget.....my sex drive has totally disappeared. I want my life back so bad I can taste it!! Oh for complete freedom from these dreaded pills. Good luck to you.
