What? I don't plan on getting off methadone now.
I've only been on Benzo's for the last 1 1/2 months. Before that, my last use back in May. I take .5mg of Xanax in the morning and .5mg at night. I don't have a serious benzo habit. I had a 7 month Xanax/Valium binge before. I got off safely with Clonazepam and stayed clean for more than 3 months. I don't abuse benzos like before, I've only been taking it for my current depression that causes me anxiety. 1mg Xanax a day is enough for me.
Methadone actually has given me my normal life back.
I don't take any other opiate, Methadone has me stable for the whole day. I dose once a day in the mornings.
My benzo issue is no problem. I wake up perfectly fine. I dose .5mg Xanax at 6am and .5mg at 6pm. I learned my lesson last time, to not abuse benzos. haha.
I just got RX'd Clonazepam for an as needed anxiety medication. My doc wanted me off Xanax, so he gave me Klonopin.
I mean, when I feel GREAT off just 1mg daily, I don't see that as dangerous or abusing drugs. It's more of taking a 'medication' for me needs.
Methadone for my Opiate dependency. Klonopin for my anxiety. I take mediations RX'd to me. I don't abuse drugs anymore. As I have no urge to, methadone is a god send to me.
