i have been taking methadone for appx. 3 months. i started taking vicodin a while back and when the dosage became so high i ended up taking methadone.tonight is the first time i have ever looked up what it is or anything.i had never been a drug user.this all started when i look back one night when i had sprang my ankle playing basketball.my mother gave me a vicodin and i was good.soon after i continued taking them more and more.the thought of my liver and how many pills i now had to take was to much.i took a methadone one day and found my cravings gone for everthing else.i dont drink and was pretty healthy.i am more informed a little now but still have questions.is ok to stop this cold turkey?im not even sure how much i take.it is a pretty big waffer as people call it and it appears to be able to be divided into 4 parts.it is orangy peach and i take one a day.i break it in half cuz of the size.i take it appx at 8pm after i get home from work every night.i have never altered my dosage up or down.should i start taking half for a month and then a quarter or what.the good news i think is i have only been on it for a few months but is my dosage high?please help this is the first time i have ever did a forum talk or whatever this is and i dont get on the cpu that often.anything somebody knows or suggestions would mean alot.i can afford the stuff but it bothers me to feel like i have to take something.how do i quit.i will go cold turkey if i can still function at work and home but maybe it would be better to drop down and give me a better chance to make it.what will i face,i want to be prepared .i think its great they have sites like this! i sweat alot at work is their anything i can eat or drink to help me along with this process.thank you so so much people!
