Methadone

I know I have not posted on here for some time now but I have been thou alot and well here it is.

Last Tuesday I went to my methadone doctor like I do any other Tuesday I get all my carrys here in Canada we get drinks. So I get my 6 drinks one supervised. I drive home and put on a movie and thats all about what I remember.

Next think I do remember I'm in the emergency room with all kinds of tubes and wirer's hooked up to me.

To cut the story short the night before I took some pill to help me sleep and the pills were long acting I almost lost my life even now typing this out I have to fight back tears.  My point I want to get across to anyone fighting addiction be careful what pills you mix and make sure you give a full 24 hours.

I plan on writing more about this or if you have any questions just let me know.
