Hey you guys,

I messed up. I had two years of sobriety after an almost decade long run of IV heroin use. I am now 30. I recently picked up stimulants and have had success with them ie career performance. However, there was one moment when a friend of a friend had some powder and I just caved and did some sweet fent/h/whatever the fuck else they put in there now. Since then I’ve been stuck on this Philadelphia fetty and having to work extremely hard to source something without that goddamn tranquilizer shit in it. Anyways, it’s been a three weeks, and I am now dependent again…. It really sucks. when I say I was sober for those two years, I actually did do Kratom on a regular basis, which was very regimented structured. It worked for me. OK, enough yapping I am exhausted. Here’s the deal. I bought 15 methadone 10 mg tablets. I have not had any fent in 12 hours and I took 5 tablets about 30 to 40 minutes before I knew my withdrawals from the Fent were about to start. It seems to be holding me over honestly I am surprised. I have never really used methadone before. At 50 mg I do not feel high, but I do not feel sick. I will admit I do have cravings, but they are not to the point where I cannot resist the urge to score. my plan is to do 5 mg per day tomorrow in the next day and then use at a high dose that I will bring down to my normal operating dose over the course of I don’t know a week maybe? Has anyone used methadone for a quick taper then jump to something else? I usually lurk on blue light and I’m not familiar with the posting so if I did this wrong, I apologize but I hope someone can offer some advice. God knows you have already given me so much.
