I am concerned for my fiancé. He overdosed three weeks ago, he claims is what opiates (in pill form) but the police suggest he was using heroin, they found needles and a spoon on him. He started the methadone clinic 6 days ago, and claims that because he is taking methadone, he wouldn't be able to use any other drugs or it could kill him, or it would be pointless because the methadone would block his high. I've been a pothead for 15 years but never messed with any other drugs so I am clueless when it comes to opiate addiction. I'd like to believe he is clean and that the methadone is keeping him off of street drugs, however, he is still stealing money from me and acting like he is high on something! Sometimes he is super hyper, can't sit still and won't stop talking, and other times he is nodding out on the couch unable to keep his eyes open and his speech is slurred.
Is there anyone experienced who can enlighten me a little on the topic of mixing methadone with other street drugs? I wish I could specify what he is using exactly but he just says "opiates" which is a broad answer and he wouldn't admit to what he's actually using anyways. Somebody please help! Am I just paranoid and THINK he's still using drugs behind my back? Or can he really be using still while on the methadone??
I'd apppreciate any advice or information! Thank you!!
