I myself am in a similar situation however it did start as fun it has not ended up that way. I have Adhd and PTSD and depression and anxiety as it is. I am prescribed klonopin and adderall amongst others which I take as directed. I've actually recently been selling the klonopin to further fund my ridiculous opiate addiction. Its hydros, oxys IR & ER, I've taken every pill form of opiate I have found to combat the withdrawals. I hate that I let myself get to this point. I dose before I fall asleep and wake up 4-6 hrs later with RLS and migraines and hot sweats. I have attempted detox unsuccessfully several times. I want to go on suboxone or methadone I'm not sure what's the better option. I just want to stop spending every penny I earn to stay high. At this point my highs are minimal very little euphoria and mainly I continue use to stop the pain. My life just utterly sucks right now.
I know exactly what your going thru, and I imagine others on here do too, life sucks living this way. Ya know, I used to have hobbies, I could weld and fabricate, and could build just about anything, Ive even sold some things on ebay that people loved, I probably could have started a good business, but I dont have any hobbies today, and really have no interests anymore(except Heroin), and all my tools went up for sale some years ago when I needed a quick buck...guess what..90% of that money was spent on dope that night, thought the amount I bought would last 7 days, ended up lasting me 4!!! I have NO control, if I have the drug, It is hard for me to use sparingly...yeah, life sucks.
DO NOT go on methadone...trust me, this is jumping from the pan into the fire!! I would almost say Heroin would be better to use than methadone...thats how bad your life will be on methadone...its a nasty drug, with a nasty half life, and when you burn thru your script of methadone, you WILL go score Heroin, the wds will get very bad and the only thing that will take it away is H, and prepare to use alot of H if the methadone is still in your system as it blocks the H, so H will take the wds away, but wont get you high, (until about 5 days without taking any methadone)
I remember when I got my first script, it was vicodin 7.5, I could take 1 or 2 and feel GREAT for half the day!! LOL and I used to keep them for weekends and other special times, but eventually, I said fuck it and wanted to feel great every day, then I wanted to feel great as soon as I woke up until I went to bed, and vicodins only do the job for so long, then you gotta do more or jump to something else, usually percocet, repeat the process and move on to Heroin then! welcome to the big leagues LOL!!
I just want to stress to you to NOT even try methadone, you will like the feeling it gives you, so dont say, Oh ill try it once and then go from there, theres no taking one and stopping! Id go to subs, even though Im not a big fan of them, they made my wds worse when I took one, but works different on everyone.
Good luck.
