Hey guys! I'm new to this site and have no idea how it really works but I was just trying to get as much advice as I could about MMT as I just started dosing last week. I have been a heroin user for 4 years, IVing about a gram or a little more a day. So I've decide to kick the habit. Unfortunately the only way I've been able to not use is by starting a completely new habit with methadone, but it is working and I am grateful. My only problem is I'm still waking up sick. I dose everyday at 35mls around 9am. By around 10pm I'm already starting to feel crappy. Then by the time I wake up around 7 am I'm in full blown wds. Is this normal? Does this mean I have to go to a higher dose? I was trying to keep my dose as low as possible so that I could taper down eventually and it not be as hard as it would be if I was on let's say 120mls. But I was also under the impression that it lasts for 24 hrs and that definitely is not the case IME. Any advice on this subject would be greatly appreciated!
 
Hi,

Welcome to Bluelight! I see you've found Sober Living thus I won't move your post. Congrats on kicking the habit. I also was a heroin user for a long time. I found the methadone I used didn't last 24 hours. I'm glad you're getting some support in other forums. Please don't hesitate to ask me any questions.

Smoky :)
