Detox and withdrawels

Does any one know how to detox without going to an inpatient setting? I need to quit these Norco's right now! What are my withdrawel symptoms that I should expect? Can I go to a methadone clinic to detox without getting addicted to methadone?

I agree with the others, the worst thing you can do is go to a methadone clinic.  You would be trading one evil for a worser evil. I would talk to the doctor giving them to you and see if he can taper you down.  More info would be helpful regarding how long you have been taking them and how many you take a day....
