So, I have not even taken it that long.
But it was recreational.
Previously, I took a few pills a day- for a few years- and never had physical dependance or withdrawals. But awhile back, those became inaccessible. They were hydros, I used to take about 3-4 10 mg pills a day, never more than one at a time and always 3-4 hours apart.
Afer they became inaccessible, I was then offered methadone and have been taking it occasionally for a few months, really not often.
However, for the last two months, actually almost nine weeks now, I have taken it every day.
It is the liquid kind so I was taking about 6.5- 20 ml a day, broken up into 2 or more doses a day, and sometimes a couple days off a week with nothing at all.
The last 2 weeks though I have taken it every day and in the amounts of about 13-20 ml a day.
I actually keep track of how much, so these last 2 weeks I took total for the week- 104 ml and this week so far about 80 ml. Those are totals for the entire week, each.
I do not know if I will now have physical withdrawals. I absolutely hate the long waiting period agonizing to see if I will have witdrawals or not, because of methadone's very long half life.
If anyone has any input on it, it is much appreciated. Please be kind, I know it is stupid to take it to begin with. But I do what I have to, to get by. To get through.
I want to be off of it now though. Off of all of it.
Thanks
