Hello everyone, I've been on methadone for 15 months and I was at 65 but have dropped down to now taking 38. I wanted to drop 2mg a week but my doctor tells me it's to much and wants me to do 1mg every 2 weeks. I'm not feeling any withdrawal so I'm wondering if I should stick to my plan of reducing 2mg a week until I feel sick then slow it or listen to the doctor . I'm frustrated because they look at me as money and have never offered counseling and even suggested I could stay on it forever.
My addiction to pain pills was 2 years and I had no clue about methadone and how unhelpful the clinic is. I've never given a bad sample and have no desire for opiates at all but it seems I'm met with resistance for getting off of it .
Sorry for venting, I'm just frustrated . But my question is from others who have quit it if they think 2mg a week would be to much and make me sick ?
