Not open for further replies.
i now take done everyday but when i used it for recreational use i found 10 - 15,mg got me a good buzz and anyone taking 30mg plus that i knew straight off nearly OD'ed done is a really dangerous substance to take with next to no tolernce so be carefull!!

psyko!
 
tbh id take the 35mg of methadone at once if you want a reasonable high BUT do not mix it with benzos or alcohol. according to the" methadone briefing papers" given to uk drug workers ,50mg of 1ml/1mg oral methadone is the MIN. amount a non tolerent adult would need to fatally o.d. if not combined with anything else. so you should be sound with 35mg ,as imo many overstate the dangers of methadone dosages
 
Please ignore the above suggestion of taking 60 mg methadone with no tolerance. That's a great way to end up dead or in the ER. Ignore the trolling/ignorant/misguided Greenlighter.*

10-15 mg is a sensible dose to start with considering your oxy tolerance. If you don't have a daily habit, 10mg will probably work for you.

I'll echo other good advice offered in the thread: Do not dose again until at least 3 hours have passed since your first dose. Methadone is odd and some people can't even feel the come-up.

So that's my other point, for some people, Methadone does not give a traditional opiate come-up. It's more like all of a sudden (after 2+ hours) you realize that you're on a powerful but strange opiate. Some people actually feel it coming on. But in either case, methadone lasts a long time. Don't be surprised if you're feeling it a little the next day, even if you take 10 mg.

But since it takes so long to come on and since it doesn't feel at all like the warm, fuzzy onset of oxy, a lot of folks will re-dose too soon then end up nodding their heads off or ill as fuck 6 hours later. 'Done's a strange beast. But I hope you enjoy it. Be safe.


* btw, GL haden, using the word "usually" belies the no tolerance part of your post. And read the damn rules about Harm Reduction. Methadone's no joke and BL exists to keep people from dying/ODing. If you continue to post that kind of bullshit, I probably don't have to waste my time getting mad at your stupidity because you'll be gone before you turn Bluelighter. So I won't.
 
sending basic dosing question over to BDD

let's help the OP guys instead of arguing over the semantics of HR.

there's a few opiate dose converters available online which can be of assistance

Thank you! Well stated!

Its one of those drugs in my opinion i wish i would have never tried. Probably because of the length of time it lasts and the how I went through withdraws after barely anything the next day. I do know plenty of people who do like it and use for fun. Its risky though, at least it was for me.

I completely get what you mean! Because this drug kept me high for so freakin long, this is one of the reasons I fell in love with it. Nodding and itching for 12-15 hours! What can be better than that?!
The good thing is I never experienced the withdrawal and the only reason for that is because when my 'done connect dried out I found a dope connect real fast. And apparently I am not the only person I know who used dope to get off 'done which is so sad to say.

I know this has nothing to do w/ the op but I need to ask...how does somebody w/ 11 posts become a bluelighter? Just wondering:)
 
In despite of why a lot of other people have suggested on the recommended dose you should take here is some more info. I do think it would be wise to start at 15mg to 20mg in my opinion. This is a very tricky subject to be asking what is a safe dose for you as nobody know your tolerance. Even if you only take 25mg of oxy.
So I did a little research for you. I read that most clinics in the US do not dose above 40mg for new patients their first day, then you go up 10mg a day until u dont feel withdraws or are itching for opiates. As i said before in one of my posts they dont drug test you before you start the clinic, they go by trust. As i talked to my counselor today at the clinic, he mentioned that a lot of people are joining the clinic with no opiate habit to deal with pain from injury. In the 20 years my clinic has been open, they have never had anybody overdose on 35mg. They also do not put anybody starting dose lower than 35mg either. I would never mix methadone with anything though. Cant wait to here from all the people who think they know better though.


Shoolameet= I agree, i actually used dope to get off done before too. It helped me since i got more dope sick off done, the shitty part was i had no self control with dope. Its harder for me to taper off methadone. I use it more for maintenance and so i don't go blow all my money on dope. although i have recently got into the habit of doing both on top of each other witch doesn't make to much since.

Just started MMT in Texas. Was doing as much as 16mg IV Dilaudid--two injections a day at 8mg each (that's all I could get in the one ml syringe). The doctor started me at 30mg first day (he said that's the highest outpatient dose he could give pursuant to Texas law). The next day he bumped it to 40, and the third day 50mg. After five days at 50mg, he bumped it to 55mg.
That's where I am now; I don't feel any WD, and I feel very good ,but not "high." Each day I felt better, and they claim the methadone
builds up" in your system. Anyway, I just wanted to share that, as I am a Greenlighter. One more thing, they couldn't emphasize enough that I am NOT to take any other opiates as it could cause an OD.

Hi upriser.

You shouldn't answer to an old thread, and as you can see, the post just before yours is from 2010 ;)

BDD is a fast moving forum, and it's better to post a new thread if you have a specific question, unless your contribution brings something really important to the subject the OP started.

I'm now going to close this, feel free to PM me if you have any question ;)
