wow, thats a good description........"cotton candy" in the head !! the ole vision was giving out on me at close range. not to mention how messed up my bowels were, that took a long time.
when I first was going through the 'done wd's I was wondering if it was just me, I soon discovered why. but given I was mixing it with norcos and beer, who knows .....
I am glad all that junk is out of my life now !!
I am with whitie on this timeline.......2-4 weeks of pretty bad withdrawals.......followed by months of having cotton candy in my head instead of brains...... and thinking that I would never have the energy required to get off the sofa - or anything else for that matter. I would personally withdraw from 20-30 hydro's daily (one of my other vices..) every other week than go through methadone withdrawal even once more....... That said I am extremely happy that I did it - - That I am not a slave to any narcotic handcuff today....... and I enjoy each and every new sober day in a manner that I wasnt able to while in a narcotic fog!!
well a friendly hello back to you !
first of all, the longer you take them, and the more you take them.......the longer the wd's. holds true with all opiates and opioids.
replacement narcotic opioids like 'done and sub are known for longer wd's, IF taken over long periods of time. my personal situation was bad because of 5 years of use,then mixing 'done in, not to mention other things.....yeah, Iknow,how stupid !!
the worse part is the first 2-4 weeks depending on usage. then the long drawn out fatigue and other issues can take up too several months,for some. I have a few journals I made about wd's, from my experiences...
hey dude if your on the pills stay on them just start taking 1 less each day, and your right about the withdrawal its way less then with methadone im coming off 150 mg
om at 4mg now and it has been tuff to say the least I havent sleep decent in a week
gut cramping and high anxiety at times to my advise is do your withdrawal from the
pills and STAY AWAY FROM THE METHADONE im sorry i ever went on it...Gnarly
