Whats the point of methadone clinics?
My uncle got back on heroin, he does it all in one shot because he's a idiot. Iv done heroin before but iv never done more than a 10$ bag at once. A 10$ bag last me all day and most of the time i get sick of it and save it for next day not many people can do this not that i'm proud of this or anything. He on the other hand will do 100$ worth within hours just after being clean for months ''Stupid''So now since he has completely abused it and he has dug himself a nice deep hole he gets dope sick when he doesn't get it. Like in record time he can go from clean to dope sick, it's a paradox. He's almost 50 and doesn't have a job. Somehow he got disability and blew his social security savings for it. Collects a couple hundred a month and instead of spending it on regular heroin where price is an obstacle he is buying record amounts of methadone at 50$ a week and as a bonus ''a bonus'' the ''well behaved'' addicts with take home privileges sell it out front the clinic. Now iv done methadone before just because he has given it to me. It's very long lasting, however it's not like real heroin but it's still strong, strong enough to kill you via respiratory depression.So whats the difference?...it's the same thing but in pink coolaid form. The logistics are a little different, drug is a little different but frankly it's the same thing. A matter o fact it's worse because the government is pushing it and it's so much more efficient then those ''pesky Illegal drugs'' that are ruining society.So now he can stay higher longer for cheaper...''great'' Not saying drugs should be legal but the government is doing just that. Just so long as they get their money.Personally i think he'd be better off buying on the streets, at least it doesn't come from tax payers pockets and he has to work into his addiction and work his way out for not having it, the clinic has taken care of the gravity problem. I guess methadone is a better option than heroin if you don't want to fiend.He plans on staying with this program for years Brags about it proudly.Did you know just about anybody can do a bit heroin for the day and get on this program for capitol gain or cheaper high? And that's what is happening is this case.They drop you every time you come in and he still does regular heroin on the side, if he doesn't do it for awhile and passes a drug test then he gets take home privileges. Sorry if this turned into a rant

Anybody know much about OPANA WITHDRAWALS? And methadone clinics?
It started in or around May 2010. I had a kidney stone removal surgery and stayed in the hospital for a total of 2 weeks with many many complications. During that time I recieved, 2mg dilaudid through my IV, every 4 hours. When I was feeling better it was time to go home, and my doc sent me home with one prescription of like 30 percocet 5 325. That was gone within days, and from then on I was a player in this so called opiate game. It was only the beginning. Pain pills were so easy to find, and it was an easy high I loved that warm feeling Ahhh. Anyways, it only got worse from there. I loved percocet, vicodin, roxycodone But my tolerance was getting higher and higher. At first, it was maybe just an example 2 3 percocet 10 325 a day, and I would be goooood, real good. The more I did, the higher my tolerance was, and I needed more. I was introduced to Opanas the beginning of 2011. I knew what they were before but I didn't know what I was getting myself into. I loved the fact that at first I could snort a line of an opana the width of my pinky nail and get an even more intense warm cozy feeling. I loved it. Let me cut to the chase, this Summer I got pretty bad on Opanas. I had one everyday. A 40mg everyday. And then it got to where my boyfriend and I need like 3 a day between us. Yeah, we bought 18 opanas last week. At $65 a pop. Do the math, makes me sick. I woke up yesterday morning wanting a pill, needing something... I felt like shit Withdrawals were about to begin. So I went to the emergency room, because I was running a fever, and diarreah started. I was just done with this game They gave me clonadine and phenegren. Which, together i feel okay. I have an appointment in the morning with a methadone clinic. Anybody know anything about that? I dont want to be high. I just dont want to be sick. Will it help? Also, is it me or does it seems like Opana withdrawals can kill you? Because i feel like im dying,.

Can I lose my social security disability benefits because I start going to a methadone clinic?
I was going to pain management for many years and started abusing my meds. I have been in a Methadone Maintenance program before, but now that I am receiving monthly disability checks for my medical condition I am scared this might throw up a red flag and I will lose my disability because of me having an addiction substance abuse problem. I know from a previous experience that they ask for your SSN so they can create your new patient number from the state.

Is someone who's been to a methadone clinic precluded from being licensed as a RN?
I have a friend, Sue, who was trying to become a physician assistant, and was ready to enter a program this fall. Then, another PA told Sue that she might couldn't get a license b c she had been to a methadone clinic in the past. The state board of medicine WV said that it was possible that she could find herself unable to be licensed after graduation. So, she decided to apply to a nursing program, but has not been able to get the state nursing board to answer her question. Also, I don't know if it matters, but Sue does have a medical condition for which she was prescribed narcotic pain relievers. She sought the help of a methadone clinic after developing a dependence on the pain pills, and then entered a Suboxone program to get off the methadone. She's very distraught that she may have irrevocably ruined her life by trying to get help, and needs to know ASAP whether she can enter a nursing program or not.
