I had a tramadol habit for years and then I got on methadone. I stayed at 40mg/day of methadone for a long time and then decided to go to the sub doctor instead of the clinic. I have been on 16-24/mg of sub per day for the past two weeks since jumping off methadone. The problem is I lost my job and I'm out of money. Sub is *expensive* and even the clinic is expensive. Anyway, I have 8 strips left, 64mg. This isn't much considering how long I've been on them. What kind of taper would you recommend? I can't use benzos to dull the pain as I am in recovery from a nasty habit and still have PAWS from the years of abuse.
 
Hey festi and welcome to BL.:)

Man festi.. this may require a little quick action on your part. Do you have some cash to see a physician & get some meds.. or if not that do you have money to cover some over the counter stuff that will actually help.

Shedding some light on this will inform people giving advice what we are working with here.

If you want to share how long ago did you dump the benzos?.. Very nice work by the way!!:D and this may bring a smile to your face as many people who have been through both would take a opiate detox over a benzo every time.
