coming off 30mg of methadone quickly

[JeremyM18]

I have been going to the methadone clinic since last month on the 5th of may. My initial day 1 dose was 30mg and it was to strong so on day 2 I only took 10 mg then about maybe 2 weeks late and went up to 20mg then another 2 or 2 weeks passed and I went up to 25mg. Now I am on my 6th of 30 mg but tomorrow is going to go down 2 mg fr 5 days until I reach 20mg then probably go down one mg a day from there so he will be at 0 in 25 days I believe. I am 5 1 and weighs 115. Does anyone know how sick I will.be when he's not going to the clinic anymore.and how long it will last? Is this taper to rapid?

Sorry, I'm just so anxious to know what I'm getting myself into I wanted an answer as fast as possible I'll take note that that's not allowed here.

Yes, this taper is too rapid. Methadone withdrawal differs from other opiate withdrawal in that it's not nearly as acute, but it can last much, much longer. I tapered down from 130mg to 10 over the course of a year and jumped off from there, and I felt like shit for about six weeks. I would taper more slowly if you can.
