The fuck is that. Methadone is a strong long acting opiate. Meth just means methyl alcohol. Which is very often used to modify compounds. Not sure that explanation works for the generic name of Metadol, pain pills (methadone 1,5,10,25mg).
Also i wouldnt use amphetamines during withdrawal ever. Well certainly not the first 5 days, after that it helps to kick one's ass into living again. But where I was in my head when I went to the alcoholism and other dependencies clinics is that I felt too weak psychologically to take another horrible cold turkey withdrawal at the time. A lot because of dexedrine abuse..
I wonder how come I am alive then buddy, people like this perpetuate the societal myth of that stupid shit. And doctors try to remove your benzos even when a person like me who was on benzos long before he ever put a needle in his hand. (I was on rivotril(klonopin) since 2007 and valium since 2010 and they were like you need to remove your benzos, without taking into account my huge tolerance to them and 20mg a day is the absolute minimum i need to be on, from a taper i did with my doc to get me out of 3mg of clonazepam a day. So anyway thats a reduction in 66% of benzo consumption.
So because of this myth I almost killed myself from benzo withdrawal which is several times worse and dangerous than opiate withdrawal. Taking methadone or bupe is because you were a hardened opi user using often ungodly dosages of dilaudid, heroin, oxymorphone, morphine, and even demerol, well all of the good opis to shoot, and just couldnt face psychologically to face another week of extreme torture. If only I could have then..I sure would have. I had done it before. I was able to be opiate free but i am unable to be benzo free.
And surprise surprise when my pdoc called the methadone doc an "irresponsible danger to society" by tapering me off valium in barbaric too short way, which anyway doesnt change anything, my neurotic brain needs benzos not to think too deep about things constantly and get lost in a maze of thoughts and getting panic attacks over fear of death constantly. I am a real case of needing benzos all the time cos my hyperactive brain could basically scare me to death. People having heart attacks or strokes because of a panic attack is not unheard of.
Im now on 20mg diazepam and 55mg methadone with no intention to increase my dosage of methadone ? Why ? Probably cos I have valium.
