Hydrocodone after Methadone?

Hello all. I have been taking hydrocodone for over a year now and of course my tolerance is very high. I do use recreationally every day. I recently was given a 10 mg methdone. I have never taken it before so I broke it in half on Saturday and took only 5mg. I then continued my hydro use the next day, which is 60-80 mg at once. I took the other half of the methdone yesterday morning. My question is this: is it ok that I take my regular dose of hydro today without worry? I have felt no ill effects since taking the methdone and did not even feel any "buzz" from it. People who have had experience with mixing both please. Thanks!

My first post involved using too and I got so much support from this site that I decided to stick with quitting.  I was sick and tired of the crazy train that opiates had me on.  Please don't leave, keep posting and sharing.  You will get so much support, advice and encouragement here.

Hi there and welcome! Please stick around and keep posting. This is a great community and you will get lots of support, encouragement, and advice. If you are tired of the merry-go-round of using, then this is the place for you. I don't have any experience with Methadone, but I was a Hydrocodone user and have been clean for close to 8 months. It can be done. Do you feel like you are serious about quitting right now? That's a question you really have to honestly answer because if you aren't, you won't succeed.

No. It was given because I had no hydrocodone. And I wanted to try it to see if it took away withdrawals because I am tired of all of the use. I just want to be safe about everything.

I don't understand. Are you taking the Methadone so you can quit the Hydrocodone? I am so confused.
