I was only on methadone maintenance for about a month and a half before I began to taper due to me no longer having a ride so in that time I built my way up to 30mg only and then began to come down 2 mg every 2 days now I'm at 10mg and I haven't felt any discomfort at all so when I'm at 0 am I going to withdrawal and how long do you think itd be?
 
You should experience very little withdrawal. Maybe go from 2mg to 1mg, and then off it.

You'll feel a little off for a week or two, but shouldn't really have any prominent withdrawal symptoms if you taper your dosage that slowly to that low.
