ADVICE PLEASE/ methadone

yea hi, some of you seen my posts,others. anyway, here is what's up--i have been taking 20mg of methadone a day. i was counting on cutting it down more--i can't because they are gone.i will have to start my detox from 20mg. one friend said i should "do ok" because that is a low dose and i've only been taking them a little less than 2 months. anybody out there who knows something about this? i don't want to get so sick i freak out mentally & sick physically. i've detoxed from some oxy's & alot of  hydrocodone before and it was really bad,but i have alot of faith in god and i made it out.i hope some body can help. i would think i can do it with my faith,and some of the detox supplies i have on hand--vitimins,good nutrition,some xanax,melatonin & valerian. any feedback?

Detox is a spiritual journey. Why because you are literally dieing to flesh like the bible says. Walk in my spirit not in the flesh. Try using a blow dryer on yor back, I don't recommend sleeping with the blow drier on.This gets your mind of the pain. God is with you and my highest respect for the courage to walk.
