Back again
Hello everyone
I was here b4 last year in july. & to my suprise i see a few ppl here 2day that were here then. But i didnt come to see who was still here, ive come because i thought i had a handle on my addiction when in fact ive totally disrespected myself & my family. No i didnt come to get sympathy, ive come to get the help i had b4, the support, care, & love, which indeed suprised me the last time i was here. When i came here i was pregnant & taking vicoden. after i had finaly weened myself from it (thaxs to this forum and fladdict) & b4 my beautiful daughter was born. After she was born my ex had come back into my life exposing me to roxies. (& yes i do blame myself to) Yes, the same routine happened between us again where i was subjected to his abuse as well as my newborn. Needless to say, i put him back in jail & because of his extensive record it put him in prison, followed by a restaining order. Im sooo exhausted of this. Seems how he was able to get off of roxies w/out a problem because he's in jail, (they now have stuff to knock U out while U w/drawl) im left in turmoil. Left w/ raising 2 kids on my own w/ no job, I tried the tappering program that fladdict had givin me b4. It didnt work. It seems that i dont have the drive i had when i was pregnant. So w/ great thought, & it was probably the wrong one, i turned to methadone. I feel like it was the bigest mistake, but there was nothing i could do, i couldnt c/t cuz there is no1 to take care of my kids, i couldnt afford to keep buying roxies, so in all weekness, i turned to methodone.
sorry this is so long but i wanted to get some input from everyone, good & especially bad on what i should do.
im starting to tapper from methadone now, but everyone is telling me that its the worst to get of off, now im scared as hell & dont know what to do. thx for takin the time to read this everyone, & hope to get some good advise.

There are also meth clinics. They help you. C if your state has one. They give you the meth as long as you test for no other drugs in your system that is, wean you off safely. My daughter in law died of overdose last year, left4 kids behind. Get help NOW!
You are already into the methadone. correct? If that is the case .... dont sweat the "what if's" - - they dont matter anyway today. You can stop meth cold turkey or you may wish to taper off..... many here have done it and many may have advice for you. What exactly were the questions? I stopped a decent meth experience cold turkey ... and while really unpleasant - I did it. Most would advise going down with a taper ..... and you may do that. Talk to us and we will try and answer those questions .................
This is the social side and it's not as busy as the addiction side. You can copy and paste this on that side and you will probably get a lot more responses. Just go to the top of this post and click on "Substance Abuse Addiction Community" it's highlighted in blue. Don't give up on us.
Hey Welcome back. Don't let people scare you......continue your tapering. Where theres a will theres a way. Sorry I don't have personal experience with Methadone but I have read many on here have gotten off it. Hang in there and keep posting.
