10mg methadone/day 1 month, problem?

10mg methadone each 24 hrs, no more, probably less. for 1 month to ease off of hydro. You all say, just go through the withdrawel. Well I don't know if you all work or not but going through wd while trying to buss tables is about impossible. I don't know, maybe some of you have done much worse, but I can't do it.

So is one month of 10mg each day then probably to 5mg for the last 10 days gonna give me those terrible wd's i've been reading about?

Hit the wrong key in my first response...

Anyway, I work 2 jobs, so I know where you're coming from. Drink lots of coffee for energy after the 3 days of methadone.

You're going to do what you are going to do, just keep in mind that you're going to have to suffer some regardless...

If nothing else, after the first 3 days, go a day w/nothing and see what happens?

I take one 10 mg per day for 3 days only. This gets me thru the worst of the w/d's. For some reason, you do need to ewait until you are in w/d for this to work. I'd just hate to see you fear one type of w/d and then fear another in 30 days. Know
