  • Hahaha, she was asleep in the Park for one month, because she took to much smack and didn't wake up until after 30 days straight kip

  • 270ml a day, lucky bitch

  • Holy crap, she is on 270ml a day, that is a lot, a way lot, far too much.

  • I have been on methadone for 2 years and hate it...I am down to 40mgs a day and trying to slowly wean myself off. I got fat, can't get a hard on and sweat like a fuckin pig..I hate it personally, but i suppose it beats the alternative.

  • @johnend2end if you get fat, eat right and exercise. that is normal. if u sit at home doing nothing you will get fat, i did too when i started on methadone, but then i ate right and started exercising. I use 100 mg and i can get a hard on no problem, Viagra?? maybe there are some other issues with your genitals. The sweating is really crappy but i got some medecine that keeps me frim not sweating like a pig, works like a charm. talk to your doctor

  • MOM!

  • Hey thanx for making the video. I had some questions I take Methadone for chronic pain(15 mgs) along with Vicodin. I know how hard it is to quit a drug, though; I stopped Oxycontin, 160 mgs daily for 2 years and a lower dose before that cold. So it can be done. I wish anyone who wants to get off the best of luck. My inbox is always open!

  • my friends mom dated this older man - they called him methadone dave- he was painter and an addict. he would come home to my friends mothers house and lay on the couch : The whole room smelled like a giant butthole. he would never take showers but would work and do methadone. grossest guy iv seen in the history of my life. she eventually left him - his glory ran out

  • Hey man I really like your interviews and your work.

  • have you used round the clock magnesium/calcium?gives back the minerals to nerves that drug took out-it relaxed so LESS CRAVINGS-hope u do well-keep on-no withdrawal cramps-b/c magnesium RELAXESmuscles-a study used magnesium/calcium-to stop suicidal compulsion IN ONE WEEK-patients felt relief-happier-is there interest among your friends for this type of nutrition project?also mag/calc will help even when using-especially cures constipation-it takes the drug poison out of the body-TRYIT

  • Actually, methadone help several peaple... but, the Fucking Withdrawal is worst than heroin :(, kiss from France

  • @gregryf...Staying clean on methadone is a ligitamate statement. Methadone does NOT get you high when you are on a STABLE dose. The people nodding all over are on xanax and other benzos and psyh meds. It is just as hard to stay off of heroin, cocaine benzos weed and alcohol weather you are on methadoe or not. Dont let certain idiots rob your niece of all her hard work

  • fuck in the uk your lucky to get 50ml

  • i dont get how ppl use for 22 years.

    10 was anough for me and the last few years wasnt about getn high....it was about geting better....cos after awhile the drug does NOTHING....its a fukn waste of time.

  • Yesterday I was driving down the road and saw a familly eating the grass on the shoulder. I asked the father why they were doing this and he said they were so poor that they couldn't buy groceries. I felt sorry for them and told them to come with me and I would give them all a full meal. We went to my house and I took them to the back yard. I said "I haven't mowed the yard for two months and the grass is up to your knees." "Feel free to eat as much as you want".

  • how does the methadon look over there?

  • At one time my niece used about a gram of H a day. Her boyfriend drug her ass to a methadone clinic and now she has been clean for about two years. She stared at age fifteen and now she is twenty eight. METHADONE WORKS if you stick with it and follow the program

  • @gregryf

    With all due respect, being on methadone is not 'staying clean'

  • @MisterBorg9 You are absolutely right. When I said she has been clean for about two years, I meant that she has been off of methadone for about two years and is free of all drug habits. She got into a good program, stuck with it and weaned herself off of methadone.

  • @gregryf That's good news. You must be very happy for her.

  • @MisterBorg9 I guess you are the father of soberiety and only under your guidlines can one say if and when they are clean. A meth patient on a stable dose does not get high. therefore it is just as diffulcult for that person to stay off drugs and alchol as it is for a person in AA or NA or someone doing it using antabuse or soboxone or religion or outpatient programs. Its 2011, through research and broader thinking we come to realize sobriety can be obtained through many viable options.

  • Can I ask a serious question? What experience do you have regards opiate addiction apart from interviewing these people?

  • @fleontrotsky twenty five years cocaine /crack, four years heroin /methadone, 200 friends in and out of addiction i also run a recovery house for the last eight years these interviews are about the people in vancouver things may be different where you live

  • @richardmclaughlin007 Thanks. I'm sorry if the question came across as combative. I was just trying to gain more perspective on the video.

    Things are somewhat different where I am, but is are still a large failure rate. You don't really hear about success stories, because the stigma of methadone could threaten their 'success'

  • @richardmclaughlin007 NOBODY on 270mg of methadone is doing dope. Above about 50mg, there is no amount of dope you can shoot that will you high. You might feel it a little for a minute or 2 and that's about it. Methadone has a success rate of over 85%, nothing else even comes close in addiction treatment.

  • @christo930 Ive been a heroin addict for 11 years.An methadone worked,but im a roofer an the lines could be up to an hour wait so i had to stop..So i tried suboxone,it didnt work ,it didnt block it just sucked..What really pisses me the fuck off is america hates drug addicts so much they wont let my doctor prescribe me methadone..So now i have to spend my hard earned money on heroin..Ive tried being sober i didnt feel like myself for a month.

  • @BizzareCorpse Depending on where you live, getting caught with even 1 bag of dope could get you state prison time. If you live in a large crime ridden city like Philadelphia, you would probably get probation and fines, but further out it's jail time then prison time (for small rural counties. Be careful.

  • @christo930 Ive only been caught once an i got 6 mos ARD probation an 180 dollar fine.All i had to do was not get arrested for 6 mos.But my p.o never called me an never had to do a piss test.Im sure where i live the county outside philly i wouldve got a year probation an more supervision.But i dont see a 1st offense anywhere in the U.S doing time.In philly it was a total joke.But it was a pain in the ass going to court.I had to go to court once just to get another court date.

  • @BizzareCorpse You lucked out getting ARD, even in Philadelphia. I don't know what county you live in, but I know people from Montgomery, bucks, Delaware and Chester county that all did jail time for a couple bags of dope. By the time you get caught, you are usually shooting multiple bags a day and getting caught with 5 bags and needles (unless you have the needle card) will get you jail time in most of the counties.

  • @christo930 But also where do you live ?? I mean in P.A u only get sent to a state prison if ur sentenced to more then a year..An i dont think theres alot of heroin or hard drugs in very rural areas..I cant imagine state time for first time drug possession ive never heard of that.

  • @BizzareCorpse I live in Philly, never been arrested, but I worked at a large (the largest) methadone clinic in Philly and I have talked to dozens of people. There is dope in the rural counties. They drive down to Philly, but a brick ($500, 60 bags) and sell them for $30 a piece. In PA you go to state prison for anything above 23.5 months. I know a girl who did time in Lehigh country and celled with a girl who got caught with 1 bag of dope and got 11 1/2 to 23, just under state time 1st offense.

  • @christo930 Really,my friends have done time an i thought if you were sentenced to over a year you got sent upstate..But i guess if its not much over a year you can serve it in county jail.An they wanted to serve there time in county jail cause you get to be close to home..Now,my x did time for drugs in northhampton county but she was selling cocaine she bought in bulk from philly..An was making a killing..Its 40 bucks a bag there which is two hours away..

  • @BizzareCorpse In PA any sentence larger than 23 1/2 months is state time and anything 23 1/2 and less is county jail. There are benefits to both. You can't smoke in the county and you can get medicated in the county, even after you are convicted as long as your sentence is 23 1/2 months or less. Once you go upstate, no detox, just a cold cell and cold turkey detox.

  • @christo930 But when i went out with her she told my dealer they pay 40 bucks a bag..He brought about 30 bundles an we slept at her house for a week an he was makin so much money he just got me high everyday as much as i wanted which was about a 12 bags a day..I lost tough with him but im pretty sure he goes up there rents a shitty motel an makes a killing..They were so happy to get a bundle for 200 bucks..

  • @BizzareCorpse They are paying $40a bag for $10 bag of dope? WOW. I though $30 was bad. Oxy's go for 25 in the inner city, 40-45 in the NE and Manyunk and $80 in the counties and S. Jersey.

  • @christo930 Yup,theyll pay 40 bucks a bag in northhampton county,its about 2 i/2 hours away..My dealer went down made a killing an got me high as hell everyday..I do dope,but im sure i could get oxys..They got them all over the place on kensington ave..I think thats the new 17th an jefferson..I like mixing dope with xanax but i try not too,,i blackout really bad..Totalled a few cars that way too hehehe..Anyway heroin sucks..I just cant kick it..I would if i had to pay 40 bux a bag tho..

  • @BizzareCorpse You go way back huh? 17th and Jefferson has been closed down for years from what I know. Be careful down somerset, once in a blue moon some asshole starts putting fentynal in heroin and addicts line up around the block to die. There was this shit called white powder a few years ago killed like 25 people in a month. You really shouldn't have too much problems getting done on the streets around somerset, cheaper than dope and lasts a lot longer.

  • @christo930 6 ppl just died an plenty sick from that in camden..So ive been scared it might be in philly..It came here in the summer of 06" an 3 of my friends died from it..I got it once,an know it was fentanyl cause what addicts dont know is it basically doesnt get u high..I mean i just remember shooting it up then waking up on my bathroom floor with the worst headache ever..Dealers do it when there heroin sucks so addicts think its really good dope..

  • @BizzareCorpse Fentanyl is also unpredictable and has different effects on different people. I also read the fentanyl has derivatives that an amateur chemist messing with it can accidentally make that makes the fentanyl hundreds of times more powerful than morphine, compared to it's normal 80x. Even heroinhelper com recommends you stay away from it.

  • @christo930 I havent been there since 96' back then u didnt have to get out of ur to even cop..The cops didnt give a shit about drugs from what i saw..I was only on oxys b4 it became so expensive i tried heroin an 10 bucks was like doin 3 /80mg oxys,..It was heaven till i learned ur tolerance doubles in a week or two..

  • @BizzareCorpse Tolerance increases incredibly fast. I have heard of people picking up after years of sobriety and within a week are doing 5 bags a day and two weeks or so and it's a bundle a day. Heroin lies in every conceivable way. It tells you it's cheap, when it's expensive, it tells you it feels good and then makes you feel like shit every day and becomes a full time job, Heroin even lies about what it is... Heroin is a pro-drug, it is metabolized into morphine before it hits your receptors

  • @christo930 I guess what pisses me off is the scumbags who abuse methadone,take xanax with it an die..Ya know what fuck them,its no excuse why people who want to resume a normal working life shouldnt get it..I didnt do any other drugs on it..I was on 90 milligrams for a year an half.Its a miracle cure..Why not be prescribed it ??,its cheap,its like 15 cents for a dose..But addicts have to jump through hopes to get it..

  • They're talking about methadone and heroin... as she's smoking a cigarette... wow.

  • I would like to see more of this kind of video! thanks so much

    

  • Theres no other methadone users, wtf. There are many programs out there where its free and you can get on suboxone. In los angeles get got a few free programs going and it works if you work it. ez

  • you all guys are dumb stupid, just buy a quarter gram of brown raw heroin get a syringe put about 35- 40 units of water in a spoon, mix heroin with the water then flame up a lighter under it until the heroin dissolves, throw a cotton ball in the mix put the syringe on the cotton then wrap your arm with a belt of exercising band and then put the syringe in your arm going towards your and then draw back the syringe till you see blood, then BAM slam that shit in and wait about 10 seconds n wait.

  • I love how you picked the lowest functioning client in the program to interview. How about doing an objective interview with the hundreds of clients who use it and it works for them.

  • @mentaller1 these are the "highest functioning clients" in that neighborhood

  • @richardmclaughlin007 They aren't "clients", they are patients.

  • @mentaller1 Works for them ?, that's a new one. I havent yet heard of anyone in the entire history of drugs who has used meth recreationally and not ended up like zombified human wrecks. If you're thinking of mushrooms or pot it's another story of debate i guess.

  • im on 4mg of methadone now. i shoudlnt transfer to suboxone now should i? im doin ok on taper right now,hope to be off completely in a month or two.

  • God i wish i could be on the pill form .. at my clinic they have the shittiest clear liquid and it does not last .. i have to do 45 of the liquid but with the pill i have to do 25 .. its bullshit

  • these aren't your typical methadone patients, these are homeless people who were on drugs for a really long time.

  • Very well said, downfan1.

    Now that I am being judgmental or anything, well at least for the most part.

    The woman in this "interview" seems like she's been a junky for many years. She doesn't seem to be very educated- and seems to have poor hygiene. However, that's not the case for most methadone patients.

    Most of the patients at my clinic are clean cut, nice, good looking people. Of course, you do have some of the others. No hate.

    This is just a bad depiction.

  • not typical?

    tell that to the hundreds who line up at these clinics in vancouver's downtown eastside each morning, all in the same wretched condition

  • Everyone in vancouver could be described as wretched. Fact.

  • scabbing off the taxpayers money

  • most clinics are pay from the pocket. Why get upset about your tax-dollars any-ways you can't do anything about it.

  • @richardmclaughlin007 you're just better than everybody,aren't you?i hope this makes you feel better about yourself.you're clearly patronizing these poor people.you know what?fuck you.you need to be fucking slapped.

  • what kind of addicts go to your clinic? clean,good looking people. the only way you should be on methadone is if you had a really bad habit. and if thats the case,you aint gonna look after yourself.

    theres kids who go to my clinic who were addicted to percocet. and now they are on methadone. i feel real bad for them if they think getting off this shit is easy. and going on it for percs. fuck me. oxycontin too. you cant compare oxycontin to methadone.

  • Yeah- just as you can't compare heroin to methadone either. Realistically, even if you were on heroin for ten years, methadone is still stronger and harder to get off of.

    I used to go to the clinic but stopped early February to get on Suboxone. Now, I'm free from the clinic, don't get tired mid-day and fall asleep, have energy, and best of all, like I said- no more going to the clinic. Freedom at last!

    Yes, most people that went to my clinic were dressed nice. But it's a business-based town.

  • isnt suboxone stronger than methadone? or just about equal? isnt it going to be a bitch to get off suboxone? my doc wanted me to switch to suboxone when i got down to 30 mg at my methadone taper. i personally think it was for money. i have coverage so they can bill more for the suboxone than the methadone. the clinic i go to really has no interest in helping anyone that wants to get off the done. its either stay where im at or go up in your dose.

  • Is Suboxone stronger than methadone? HELL NO.

    Methadone- is a full agonist, just like heroin, oxycontin, ect...

    Suboxone- is a half agonist- which means it's only part opiate.

    Methadone fills the whole opiate receptor and does the same thing heroin and pain-pills do. Suboxone only partially fills the receptor so you can start making chemicals again and feel life without opiates somewhat.

    I've seen many people come off Sub and get clean. I never have for methadone.

  • Now, I'm not against either. I've used both.

    In the morning- about an hour after my dose of methadone- I'd get a slight buzz/glow for a few hours. But with Suboxone- I don't get that.

    Suboxone is more expensive if you don't have insurance that covers it. However, if you need help paying for it- contact me and I'll get you some info on medical assisting programs. Okay?

  • @cobb864 I'm in college for drug counseling and a recovering heroin addict for 15years ( i started using dope real early as a kid). Methadone certainly does work and millions of people have used meth to get off drugs and stay clean. Educate yourself on the harm reduction statistics that methadone produces. ALL OF YOU ARE UNEDUCATED IDIOTS WHO KNOCK METH.

  • @EdinAmmar

    Wow, I never said anything bad about methadone. I was on it for years- I definitely agree it's a great tool and know everything there is too about it. But maybe you misread the post.

  • @EdinAmmar You r right I hate people who hate something because of what they think they know about it. For every tax dollar spent on methadone treatment 4 tax dollars are saved in money that would of been spent on treating a heroin user, in Jails hospitals detoxes courts and thats not counting costs saved in property loss because treated addicts who are no longer dope sick dont steal for heroin anymore. Also many clients are self pay because they became well enough to get jobs and pay taxes.

  • @downfan1 these are your stereotypical methadone patients but not your typical patient. This dude found the most obvious person to interview to reinforce the stigma and sterotypical people with drug problems. It was the most biased non objective patronizing interview I ever saw. I guess thats why its on you tube and not tv or in a newspaper or magizine. My 12 year old niece could of found this obvious looking person and asked the same stupid questions

  • @downfan1 this is your typical methadone patient--your STERO- typical patient. Most clients look nothing like she does. This dude found the most obvious person to interview to reinforce the stigma and sterotypical people with drug problems. It was the most biased non objective patronizing interview I ever saw. I guess thats why its on you tube and not television or in a newspaper or magazine. My 12 year old niece could of found the most obvious looking person and asked the same stupid questions
