So the other day I met up with this dealer who said he had 30 vicodins for me, when I got the bottle I said hey this isnt v dude, and he was like oh man sorry its 20mg morphines. I was like umm okay shit I need whatever so ill take it.

I was going to pop one in the car but was like hmm this doesn't look like morphine and even though Im jonsing i always check pill ID first.

Thankfully I checked the pill id and found out it was 10MG Methadone pills which Im just not cool with.

Long story short I want to quit taking pain killers, sure I feel like they help me in life in terms of doing work, school, the chicks what have you but its just no sustainable any longer im needing more and more and its starting to feel like its hurting me more than helping me.

So I have 30 10mg methadone pills and I know this shit is highly addictive and not something to toy around with so here is my plan.

Take the remaining 10 10mg norcos I have at 2 per day for 5 days. Than on the 5th day wait until I feel ANY withdrawls and if I get some that makes me want to go after some more norcos take 1 5mg methadone wait 24 hours and take another wait 24 hours and take another in the end taking 5mg a day every 24 hours for 3 days.

Shouldn't this kick the habit? or at least get through the worst cravings/withdrawls and furthermore the main question is will 5mg every 24 hours for 3 days for a total of 15mg get me physically addicted to Methadone.

Should I just leave the methadone alone all and well?
 
Methadone is a nightmare and you will become a slave to it, sooner rather than later. Switch to Suboxone and your life will be much more manageable.

I am no expert at tapering, but from what I have read so far I think it is safe to say that you should not even screw around with the methadone. I think someone experienced with tapering will chime in here soon and say that you should do something like take two norcos a day for three days, then take one a day for four days. By that time if you are still having noticeable withdrawals you could take like a quarter of one of your methadone tablets. I am just trying to give you an idea of what to expect, and I hope someone who is very familiar with tapering will let you know what to do/expect if I am wrong.

edit* I checked a narcotic dosage converter and 20 mgs of hydrocodone is equivalent to 2mgs of methadone. What this means is that if you take a whole 10 mg tablet of methadone you will be giving yourself more medicine than you need. I also want to say that most people are more afraid of withdrawal symptoms than they really should be. It would be helpful if you would elaborate on your usage, particularly how long you have been taking opiates and also what your regular dosage is. Without this information it will be hard for someone to give you a good idea of what to expect.

the thing with methadone W/D is that you can't jump off at 2.5mg you have to go down to 1 mg...

So even after taking it for 3 days it physically addicts you to the point where quitting cold turkey causes physical withdrawl symptoms?

probably true but i hear the hole process of weaning from it is hell...

not worth it from anyone and everyone iv talked to whov been on it.

since suboxone has came out, there is no reason to go on methadone unless u want to be taking it til the day you die
 
umm i think your wrong^^

he is already an addict, and then plus the 3 days of methadone...im pretty sure he WILL withdrawl
 
If you are taking 20 mgs of hydro a day your withdrawls aren't gonna be that bad anyway. Just go cold turkey when they rum out. Don't start fucking with mehadone.

Its not that big of deal to take tha methadone.. i take thoze all tha time if i dont have other pain killers around, its no big deal. i take 6 methadone ten mg'z one day, it gets me high and feelin good and the next day, i dont take any and im fine. the only way u will get addicted to methadone is if u keep taking it daily, but space it out and you'll be fine. what tha fuck anywayz.. Why is everyone so afraid of Methadone? cuz it sayz Meth?? haha, idk the people who are afraid of methadone, most of tha time have probablly never tried it.. its a great pain killer, and gets you higher than most, like hydro or percs or watever.
 
^ Agreed. Methadone is the great evil drug people like to fear nowadays, like coke was supposed to put the black men in a raping mood in the 40's or marijuana the devil drug of the 30's.
 
Methadone will fuck you over. You just get addicted to it. I mean maybe not everyone, but my uncle is haha.
 
Worried about highly addictive opiates says the person addicted to opiates?

Opiates = opiates = opiates. All have essentially the same course of action. So although you have methadone and not vicodin you can still use them accordingly to maintain if not reduce your addiction
 
Yo please don't do methadone, heroin is better.

Ya, heroin better than methadone by far :) but if all you have is methadone using small amounts to cover a small hydro habit is manageable. Especially if spaced out to compensate for the long HL

oh, my bad, I only read that post as it stands alone. if he were to take 3 days of methadone out of nowhere he wouldn't have withdrawals, but if he's already hooked on something, and then just switches to methadone for 3 days, you most certaintly will have at least some minor withdrawals.

I don't have anything against methadone. I just wouldn't recommend that someone use it to kick hydrocodone. Methamphetamine can be fun too, but it's not a good way to kick an adderall habit.
