Methadone is more available because of prescription drugs like Oxycontin, & opiate painkillers that doctors are writing for pain -not heroin addiction. If doctors were more responsible ,m*done would mostly be drank in front of a nurse at a clinic not brought outside to sell. The T*H*B,s heroin addicts receive arent the problem, its the scripts un-informed(greedy?) doctors are writing to kids who probably should be taking a much less potent med for pain.

Methadone keeps down crime!

[melis11577]

yea! I can see that from the video

I agree the going on's out side this clinic are horrible to see. However, methadone clinics themselves are 98% of the time doing the right thing.

275 mgs a day for 7 years and clean for nine

so sad....

[israelihitman]

Wow we always had to go to alot of trouble to sell our take homes back when i was on it. If one person was outside the clinic the cops were there instantly. You couldn't sit in a car outside of the clinic or anything. Who would want to get on Methadone? It's the most horrible shit ever

[jackmo23]

Anyways, the doctors put me onone thingafter another for tha pain, eventually trying methadone bc nothing really worked. I am now a 21 year old methadone addict who NEVER signed up for tha part. So please people who dont kno about this struggle or lifestyle, stray away from criticizing us bc everyone that takes methadone isnt a JUNKIE...alot of people are on it bc of instances like me or for chronic moderate/severe pain....

[jackmo23]

I have been on methadone for about 3 years now and I am jus barely 21...Wen I was 18, a man broke inside my apartment and came upstairs and beat me in the head with a steel maglite, while still asleep in my bed, beside my g/f.

I have a sister who is on methadone. Yes it is harm reduction and it initially helped with the heroin problem. However, not with the crack addiction. Altho I don't have first hand experience with methandone peronally, I do understand that there is little assistance to get off of methadone. Of course there is money that is being made from having people on methadone and I would question if this is a reason there is very little assistance for those wanting to wean themselves off?...

Methadone 10 years?. come on at some point your supposed get off it! my girlfriend is on it and i HATE IT!!!. always moody and is not the same person that she was.she started at 85mg 2years ago to get off pills and is down to 25mg but its bin a fight and even when she told the clinic she wanted to go down they try to convince her "SHE SHOULD NOT DO THAT" there the fucking drug dealers. Good luck to all of you trying to get off of that stuff.
