have you been attending counseling or support groups?
methadone is only supposed to be part of a recovery program.
how long were you using oxys and at what dose?
did you start at 75mgs of methadone and have maintained there?
Hi & Welcome,
Why are you going cold turkey instead of tapering? You will surely have withdrawl but it may not be too bad because you were on it such a short time. My concern is that will jump and if you have withdrawal you will go back to the pills. In other words I fear that you will trade one for another. I don't advocate Methadone. It's a horrible drug. But if you decide to go on it then take the time to heal yourself. Just putting the drugs down isn't enough. I don't think anyone can possibly tell you how strong and how long the process will take. Everyone is different. I hope you decide to taper instead of jumping. Let us know. We are here to support you.
