IM 19 years old and have been on methadone for a little over a year now. I have come down from 40 mgs to 13 and it has taken me this long. I havnt had
much trouble with withdrawl symptoms but have found that the lower i go the more i have a yearning to use, and i know this is the affect of not having
enough methadone to uphold your comfort level however i have ignored it and have refused to raise my dose. I am currently on 13 mgs and sill going down.
i feel like it may take me almost the same amount of time to go down the last 10 mgs that is has for me to decrease the previous 30mgs. What im afraid of would be an intolerable decrease and feel like i may have to use or raise my dose which i do not want to to, or maybe it wont be that bad? i dont know
what to expect over the next few months... any help?
P.s. female advice would be helpful too. havnt met any fellow females my age that are going through the same thing as me.
thanks
