Intro: Hey all, my first post, but been lurking around for a while. I need some help before we do something we regret....... My friends have been on methadone for about 5 years now. They started out taking them on the weekends for 5 years. A couple months ago their hookup disappeared and nothing anymore, just fell off the face of the earth!!! So instead of WD we started 40MG OC's. We are now in a hard spot. We need the M's so much and everyday we literally cry everyday, get constant headaches, cant work cause we worry about how we are going to get more and who we can call. I know it makes me sound like a pussy, but its the truth. We just dont know who to talk to or what to do. We dont want to stop right now. We are still young and dont plan to have children for at least a year. We want to have more fun before settling down and having a family. We dont know where to go or what to do. Its getting incredably bad now. Does anyone know what it would take to make these homegrown? I have a BS and I am not a dummy, what would it take? Does anyone know? We were taking 10mg Methadone each. I have tried to find it EVERYWHERE with NO luck!! I live in the New England area and there is NOTHING!!! Please give us some suggestions for where to and what to do. PLEASE TRY TO HELP US SOMEHOW........
I'm confused..... You were on a clinic?.... because you said you had take homes for the weekends. Then you said your connect disappeared which made it seem like you were getting it off the street. Now I am thinkin, maybe your connect sold u his take homes, I'm sure, you'll have to clarify that. But my first obvious thought is just go get on the clinic yourself. But you also said you wanna have fun for a while longer and thats not what MMT is for it's to stop using street opiates and take the cravings away and eventually detox hopefully, and it sould like you are not having fun anymore anyway. This is route I would take if I were you. EDIT: okay, now it sounds to me like you were calling your clinic a connect...and that you were on the clinic and it just up and closed on you? I'm not sure where you live but if you are near any big city there are prolly plenty of clinics around. But I'm still not sure what you were tryin to say there, but if possible get back on a clinic or lookinto Suboxone.
10mgs each a day, thats it!! Well this should be easy. Just fucking STOP. you might get a little headache. but doing it on weekends for 5 yrs isn't shit. In fact your body isn't even dependent on them. So quit your sniveling and buck up and have a beer or something.. Plus the way it sounds your not having fun anyway. So stop taking them and go to work and keep your mind busy Hope I helped ya out
Sorry guys, let me clarify. My friends were not going to a clinic. They were from a friend of a friend. They dont know what happened to her. She dropped off of the face of the earth. Phone shut off, moved, like she never existed! Also, sorry for not going in more detail with how they were taking them. They started 5 years ago just on the weekends. About 9 months ago they started to take them everyday. Now they are up to 80MG each a day of OC's. They say they take the OC's just till they find the M's. They also state that when they get the M's it helps them stop the OC's completly until they run out of the M's. They have not been able to find the M's for about 2 months so they are taking 40MG everyday just to work and then another 40 at night just to sleep through the night. Also, they cannot just goto a clinic because of their jobs. They both work in areas I dont even want to mention here because of the severity.
That isn't much of a tolerance. Stop for a few days, go through the slight WD's, and shrug it off until you can find more, or decide to stop. And no, you can not "grow" Methadone. Also, another option is to actually go to a Methadone clinic. It will be cheaper then buying them on the street, but I don't recommend going down that road. If you and your friends have been doing this for 5 years and you only take 80mg of Oxy, then you don't even need a Methadone clinic...just stop. I am jealous about how much easier your WD's will be than mine.
LOL... I was thinking, did they just acctually ask if they can grow methadone... maybe they though since you can cook the other type of meth, you could grown this one
They or I didnt mean how to actually "grow" it, more of how to synthesize the chemicals to bond the agents together and "make" the drug.
No, you won't be able to do that. Anyways, like I said...if after 5 years...80mg of OC still works for you and keeps you well, I would just tough it out. I know Methadone has WD's that last a fuckton longer then other opiates, but at only 10mg, you really shouldn't even be WD'ing. Might be more of a want, then a need, to be honest.
Also, just getting my facts right here. I thought that the tabs were 5MG each. But I was wrong again, they are 10MG tabs, so they are taking 20 each. Sometimes 30 each. I guess from the post they were looking for moral support more than anything else. They dont know anyone else who goes through these types of things.
Yes, absolutely no more fun involved. More of a need type of thing. I dont believe it to be very bad physically, but extremely bad mentally. They both are very depressed about the direction they are heading and just want to be normal once again, but also want to keep getting that high to overcome the depression as well. It also makes your life like a porn star! That by itself is very addictive!
If they are HONESTLY taking THAT MUCH Methadone, they need to either get on Suboxone, or get into a clinic ASAP. That is such a ridiculous amount. You said they were taking 10mg. Not 300. You also stated 40mg OC in the first post, and changed it to 80mg OC later on. Start over and explain more in depth about everything....it will make answering and helping you A LOT easier. Also, you don't have to hide behind the identify of "your friends." It just makes it more confusing. If you are going through the problem, then ask for yourself. I am sorry, but it's nearly impossible to believe that a 300mg a day Methadone habit is not bad physically. If they are worried about the direction "they" are headed, then there is only one clear answer. Quit. Wether it be by use of Suboxone, or by going to an actual Methadone clinic and letting them taper you...that is the only thing that will make "them" "normal" again. If "they" have depression, they shouldn't be using drugs recreationally to combat it. They need to see a doctor and talk to them about depression and get on depression medication. I don't see how 300mg of Methadone a day makes you feel like you are living the life of a porn star, aside from the doing drugs daily side... I really don't know what you are asking us to do for you, aside from giving you a source to buy Methadone from. I mean, if you are that hard-up...you do realize that Methadone clinics GIVE you Methadone LEGALLY.
I was thinking that too, but 5 years of use and still only being at that dose? Doesn't add up.... What Blitz, no welcome back?
Well 300mgs is a far cry from 10mgs, Just go to a clinic, thery will accept you, especially with that kind of habit.. If you and your wife both go, it has to be cheaper than buying them off the street. You can also go into detox and let them get you clean in 5 days. Maybe more with that habit. Anyway there are a couple of choices for you.
Blitz is right, 20 or 30MG each. So 2 to 2.5 pills each They also started at 40MG OC's, now we are up to 80MG a day. Sorry for the confusions on this, when I wrote the original post I was really upset because I was ripped off today. I have calmed down a bit now. Sorry about that.
