I am happy to report that now I'm at 110mgs a day and I'm starting to get relief that lasts until around eight or nine o'clock at night. Well, I'm fine until I dose the next morning, but I feel "good" until around 9 PM. I dose around 9 AM everyday. I'm not experiencing much in the withdrawal symptom department. Like I said the methadone is holding off my intense craving until the late evening. At night, especially at work, I do have some pretty intense cravings though.
I work at a restaurant so I work late, and I'm around drugs. I have done very well staying away from using though. In the past month since I started dosing, I have only used once. It has been hard, especially knowing that I can get something whenever I want to. I am trying so hard to quit and give the methadone a good shot at doing its thing. I want to quit and for the clinic to work. It is working already, I am actually saving the money I'm making. This is the first time I have saved money in four years.
Does anyone know if methadone eventually gets rid of your cravings for the entire day. Like I said, I'm at 110mgs a day. I know that is a lot, but I was doing a lot for a long time. I already plan on being on methadone for years so I don't need a lecture on how hard it is to quit and the higher the dose you take the longer you will be on it. It has changed my life around in a month. I just don't want to have cravings and slip up or get into anymore trouble. I want to take my dose, go to work, take care of life, and go to bed everyday. That is all I'm asking for right now.
I would love to hear from some fellow methadone clinic people on how it is working for them and what I should expect from going to the clinic. Thank You for anything you have to say.
