Coming Off Methadone

[WoRegret]

I wanted to know if anyone knows of vitamins and supplements that help with coming down off methadone. i have researched some but wish I had concrete info. I was on 70 mgs down to 55, stayed there for about a year, then 40 for a couple months..now Im down to 19.. I go down 1 mg a week at my clinic. I want to do it the right way and I take it slow, yet im starting to feel the weakness, lack of motivation, and just blah. i will get the icky feeling at night and sweat randomly during the day. im not dying but I have a 2 year old and I start college this month, I cant just lay around. I wanted to get some kind of vitamins to help with my mood and fatigue. Anyone??

Wow the 3 in one works well huh? I was thinking of taking a L-Dopa supplement to also help with my tiredness through the mid afternoon and just lack of energy. i get kind of snappy and easily agitated as the day goes on. i will def try the 3 in one. i would have never thought of that. thank you. i will def let you know how it goes, i am nervous to get to the lower numbers. thanks again. ;)
