Thanks everybody, even though I do appreciate good advice here and whatnot I don't necessarily agree with assumptions that 1 will get into long term maintenance opiate habit or long acting opiate habit, I understand many folks messed up and assume others will follow suit, but it doesn't always work like tat...Many use opiates or meth or sub for short whole and get off to never touch an opiate again...We dont know everybody's mentality, threshold, future etc...
First of all I am not on s script and dont have access to more methadone, so even if I wanted to do more I won' be able to get hold of it.. Second of all my opiate habit has never been that massive, Ive always stayed clean for many months, even years, always held down a job, relationships, always had funds, always do other things like sports etc...Am not saying am not addict but am not a hardcore junkie an addict...I've never been more serious to quit.
Lastly there are people who reduced their methadone slowly and got away with withdrawals, PAWS and depression, maybe they were young? age played a factor? who knows...
My only question was if anybody has done short-term methadone..Also being a long acting opiate shouldn't it taper u off slowly? and not give hardcore withdrawals if used for jut 4 days?
cheers again folks!
