If so, can you tell me what dose you're on and how it makes you feel in general. Do you think that thelong term effects of being on methadone are scary? how long have you taken it and do you think it's doing your body any good? I personally hate the stuff and I'm going down tomorrow from 75 mls to 70 mls in 5 ml increments. What would it be like going cold turkey from methadone? Do you think I should try? Thank you very much Reknaw13. I really feel as if this is really toxic on my body. my skin is sallow and my overall well being, I feel , is being compromised by the drug. since I 'm not using oxys or the like, I think there are better reasons to get up in the morning. I really appreciate your answering my question and I wish you the best too. I shall and will reduce my use to 0.

It's easier to stop heroin than methadone, methadone is hell and more hell. The dose is different for everybody depending on thier habit. Methadone just makes you alittle drowsy, little/ no recreational use but it tickles them opoid receptors and basically puts off going into withdrawal. The only real long term effects I can think of is the prolonged addiction. Opaites aren't usually toxic or dangerios like alcohol or pcp. (lol pcp) You can try going into cold turky but depending on your dependency and the amount of time you've had it you might not be able to handle feeling like dying for days and maybe weeks on end. Maybe drop it to 70ml and then keep dropping it, the quicker the better. Maybe cold turkey it when you've dropped it more. Just think ... there IS light at the end of the tunnel, people give this stuff up all the time so if they can do it, then so can you. Oh and at least it's not a GABA drug like Valium, Alcohol, GHB because withdrawal from that stuff will put you into hospital if it doesn't kill you first. Good luck with it though. Seriously I mean it.
