Multiple reasons of needing to get off opiates NOW. My wife is terminally sick, she is doing okay now, but after a few months anything can happen. My window is closing. A gigantic fear for me is, if she starts to fail and I'm too sick to help/make plans plus the rest of her family will be watching. Because we are no longer a dual working family, I've got to pack up a large house and simplify to something small. Hopefully moving near the shore where she can live out her last year or so. We both love the Ocean. Oh, my opiate supplies will be no more, it's complicated, let's just say within a week or two, I'll have no more access in general (I'd have to steal or go corner shopping which has been I line I've never crossed and don't plan on starting). Plus imagine this from Jail, first thought is suicide. So, no. Just the 25 methadone pills to use as a taper, read on please.
I'm mainly an Oxy abuser up to 200mg snorted. I've taken that habit down to oral at least. I've used methadone for a week here and there when I'm out. Under all the conditions I've said, can I take 25 10mg methadone pills and make a reasonable taper. Usually 20-30mg keeps okay for a day so I can start there. Responses?
FYI: I also have Anxiety disorders. No meds work. So generally I'm a wreck unless plied with opiates and maybe booze. The opiates created this (with my help of course).
P.S. Suboxone does weird things to me. So Im really not a fan.
P.S. Wife is the best thing ever happened to me, Soulmate, I'm destined to follower into the grave unless I can bring sanity through freedom from a large substance habit. 9 year habit with a few breaks, first 3 years on Hydro orally.
