Will I start to loose all this weight if I start to decrease my dose from the methadone clinic?
Ok I have been going to the methadone clinic for 2 1 2 years now. I've been really depressed because it has made me gain weight real bad. I know it's the methadone cuz I hardly eat. I weighed 140 when I started and I now weigh 175. It has wreaked my sex life with my husband. He thinks I am out cheating but I am too ashamed of my body and have no desire to have sex. He is also on it and has only gained 5lbs. He's been on it the same amount of time as me. I am going to start to decrease my dose this week. I am at 100mg. My question is will I start to loose the weight once I ween off of this? This has really been making me sad. I don't want to go anywhere. I wear baggy clothing now and I use to wear cute, tight clothes. It seems I am gaining 5lbs a week. Can anyone help me? Does anyone have the same situation? Please let me know. Thank you.

Methadone clinic next door?
Before anyone posts that I already asked this question, I know, I want more answers. Before I got a lot of people who said I was making an uneducated judgment about it. So let me clarify I moved to the area I'm in because I wanted to get away from all the crap. The area I live in is not rampant with heroin users. The clinic was put in for the people in the inner city, so why can't the clinic be where they are? I know that the people going to the clinic are " rehabilitating" But I have knowen many heroin users and from my experience, they may be trying to rehabilitate today and not tom arrow. How do you know that they aren't using still, even while going to the clinic? And how do you know that those people aren't into some even more destructive habits? I'm just saying that I don't want all of this right in my yard. I share a parking lot with the clinic now, they just opened last week All you can hear are people cussing and hanging out in the parking lot. It's annoying. And I'm sorry to say, I don't trust these people. That may sound judgmental, but it's not me using the needles. So I guess even if it is judgmental, I don't care. I have 4 children to look out for, not the heroin addicts. I don't care if their feelings are hurt. My family comes first. I just don't feel right letting my kids outside to play right next to where these users are going. And I understand that they are going there for help. But I also understand that not all of them are really on the road to recovery. I have knowen people that use and when they run out they go to the clinics. I have heard of people shooting up just before they go in. I don't need that here. Everyone acts like I'm an awful person because I don't want to give the recovering addicts a chance, but would you take the chance when it's your family? I just wanted to know how everyone else would feel if a methadone clinic moved into your back yard? And is there anything I can do to get it relocated?

Methadone Clinics... Is anyone seeing what I'm seeing here?
Why the hell are these clinics an acceptable way to get people off of heroin?This drug has worse withdrawal symptoms than heroin that can last a very very long time. We shouldn't be getting people off drugs by putting them on different kinds of drugs. It is terrible what these clinics do to people, it just looks like a scam to me. They don't care about the health of the recovering addicts, they clearly just want money. I really feel bad for the people that have fallen into the trap that these clinics are. It's no doubt that a heroin addict is going to get addicted to methadone when they go there. If they're going to get addicted to heroin, they're going to get addicted to it's substitute as well. So can somebody tell me why these places are legal and accepted? Am I missing something here?" You can call me God" Addicts are NOT content on being addicts. You clearly do not understand how an addiction works. They would want more than anything to get off but their bodies and minds try their hardest to keep them on it through withdrawal symptoms.Meth is a bit different than heroin. The thing with meth and cocaine is that users just think they don't have a problem and that it is a perfectly acceptable way of living life. Once they realize they have a problem or are forced to quit by their family it's not as hard on the body as quitting heroin or methadone. With heroin or methadone you can want to quit really badly but the physical withdrawal symptoms are way too much to bear. With meth it's much more mental than physical. Sure, there are plenty of junkies that want to continue being junkies. But once they realize they have a problem via family or just by themselves, it's just terrible that this is what they are lead to most of the time. A lot of them just don't know what they are getting themselves into.I know it's a physical addiction too. It's just that compared to heroin the physical addiction to meth isn't shit. It's pretty sad that you don't have sympathy for people who have done the same things you have.
