I have been on methadone for 3 months at 20mg a day. 6 months before that I was doing some oxycodone for pain. I quit those and got on dones. Once I have admitted all my drug abuse to my family, I quickly decided to quit and I had a problem that I didn;t think I had until I quit and found out the withdraws. Withdraws were horrible but the 2nd time around was better because I had my secret exposed (which helped tremendously with the anxiety and depression) and I went to a hospital for help. I am in treatment and the doc put me on 4mg a day of suboxone. I am on day 4 now and still have felt no withdraws from the methadone what so ever. It has actually been great. I am worried though that I might get the mental dependacy on suboxone as I did the methadone. If I take it for 6 weeks am I in danger? That is the treatment they chose for me. They are going to taper me off the suboxone and assure me I wont become addicted but like I said, I feel really good and fear the mental aspect of it. Can anyone who can relate or share your story, please need help.
Thanks
