Thanks for sharing. I too get depressed, hot flashes, body pain - the air hurts! It's horrible. After 6PM. I was hoping adderall taken in the morning would help while not keeping me up all night. Are you able to sleep taking adderall at 5 or 6 PM. Methadone saved my life. A lifetime of addiction, 10 years in prison and a 3 time looser. I got on methadone, started going to AA, got medical treatment for my anxiety, went back to school and got my degree in computer programming. (I already knew how, just no degree) got an insanely awesome job right out of school. They know my past and because of my years in AA gave me a chance. Been there 3 years now and my income more than tripled over night. Bought my first home, happily married. Just sucks I get up and work until 5 then the pain and depression start. I'm tapering off of methadone. I was at 250mg per day (fast metabolism and liver issue, hep c - and after $90,000 treatment thanks to my health insurance new antiviral medicine Zepitier recently cured me). Down to 95mg per day.

regarding methadoene and xanax together i had a doctor give me methadone for 120 mg pluss xanax at the same time and i peed the bed and could not do nothing and when i feel asleep i peed the bed more than one time and i stopped taking it and i told him my friends think you are kiilling me doctor AND I could die and he said the only way i could die is if i take it differently than how he said to take it, but anyhow i did see at the methadone clinic when i was there like there were people who died while i was there and i asked to see the cards of people who died and there was a big box full like over a hundred for just that year who died and i was scared and even i hate my methadone but it seems im stuck. it is so hard to stop taking it and besides i cant hardly walk and i did notice after i started taking the methadone my legs got so so bad and then i was using a walker. now a wheelchair. i need two knee replacements and i have five buldging disks in my lower back. i wish i never was in pain ever and never started it. i have been on pain killers for 26 years straight and yeah it's a trap. that is scarry stuff man and im stuck on it due to pain and in order to move i must take it, but i notice when i just took any pain med except methadone i had alot of energy and can clean and move everything but with methadone it does not give me that energy. i just im a hot mess and my house gets a hot mess being on this crap, but i cant quit it. seems i dont want to die on these pills but it has a hold on my life. do you all feel me? do you feel the same way? anyone out there been on pain meds for over 26 years? and im still alive. if any of you just started methadone quit while you can because it's a trap. you will be on it forever and it sucks and it makes you gain weight. this is a fact.

Hello. I'm currently on Methadone 57 mg. I've been on it 6mos now. I became addicted to opiates 4yrs ago after back surgery. Anyway, my doctor is thinking about putting me on Adderall for ADD. He says it's very safe to take the two together. I am just looking for other opinions....thanks.

Ummm uncomfortable? If you are just feeling "uncomfortable" from methadone withdrawal you must not be more than three days into it bcuz methadone withdrawal is an effing nightmare!! Hot flashes feel euphoric compared to the hell you are going thru now. The only thing that I can think of to take the hot flashes away is MORE METHADONE! Unfortunately I'm a lifer....

Methadone shouldn't be taken with any sort of "Benzo".

You may be right. In on 85mg of methadone, I've been voluntary detoxing from 100mg becuz wen im not working, I start nodding out. Not a gud thing to do! But I had never took Adderall, but I'd heard of it. My friend is like, "man, once you take it, yull be asking yourself "where has this been my whole life!"! So being an addict, I was more than ready to try it. But I didn't really feel much. I took a 20mg capsule, and I got a lil rush at first, but it was short. Methadone makes your brain flood with dopamine and endorphins... U know, the feel good chemicals. But Adderall does the same thing. Your brain can only handle so much at one time. So u may be on to something. Phyzer needs to get on the research!

God has been taking good care of you. You're taking deadly combinations. I've seen people drink liquid methadone and outside taking xanax walking a few blocks sit down and die or just lay down on the sidewalk all messed up. Please be really careful.

They're not self medicating. I get methadone from the clinic and I was prescribed adderall. As most of these people are. They are wondering other people's reactions. Mine was awful and scary. We would be taking illicit drugs if we were self medicating. So before you comment, read what people are actually saying. Not just the negative thoughts that come to your head.

Omg. I take 60 mg of methadone. Didnt take it yesterday because I thought id be fine because usually am without it for up to two days then start withdrawing. Well lastnight I start.getting aching kneez and could not sleep, took my methadone and ibuprofen at 5am and around 6 I was finally able to get comfortable. I thought the adderal would help because ive heard.ppl say they took it and didnt withdraw from.methadone but im pretty sure thats why my knees were aching and I usually have.no withdrawl symptoms at all the first day without it.

I have been on methadone for years after a bad pedestrian vs Chevy truck wreck. ( I was the pedestrian) And methadone stays active & actually increases levels in your body for 72 hrs from one pill. And unlike any other opioid will not cause actual physical manifestations of withdrawal symptoms until over 7 days because it stores up in your body. Alot of your manifestations of withdrawal symptoms are mental from anxiety not from withdrawing. You have to mentally prep yourself & tell your body that you are alright & will be alright for days. Just relax & keep saying it. Your mind is a powerful thing. Your must learn to put it in your corner & let it have control of your body in a positive way & leave anxiety at the door. You can actually trick your body into physical symptoms when they are not even present. You are being your own worst enemy. The most powerful drug I known to man is made naturally in your body called endorphins which are released when your are happy. Out bodies are designed to heal themselves, to learn,& to evolve. Let it work for you not against you.

Are you stupid? You people need rehab. You don't mix benzoyl and methadone. Go to the Dr and quit self medicating.

I had, without a choice tapered from oxy 30mgs 10 a day down too zero. That was the hardest. Then 80mgs methadone. That was long. I had to do it really slow. All 4 year after major surgeries. The one thing that really helped was having someone around that cared for me. Getting sleep was the hardest part. With you having a family kids etc.. It should help you through, if your still in that position. Its also very helpful to have a g.p. give you medicine to help you relax and keep you from flying off the handle.

Ummm quit taking the adderall or lower your dose dramatically. Methadone is a downer, adderall being an upper, the 2 together... you get exactly what your experiecing. It's one or the other ... or take a low dose of Addy when your tired one day. Quit going over board. I'm on 100mg of methadone and I am fine besides sleepy which is a side effect of any type opiate.

Everyone is Different when it comes to any and all drugs. one person may just need willpower, and another could take that advice and believe it to be the case for all, And it could be too much on their Body or their Heart and that person could die, People, when reading things like this please take into account that everyone has their own opinion and their own reaction to any and everything we take into ourselves.

You use to be Unsocialized too? How do I snap out of it? And will adderall really help this case bc I get nervous and sweaty being around other people that I'm not comfortable being around with. Why is that though? I use to not be like this until here recently about two years ago. I lost self confidence and I don't know what caused it so I'm trying to compare my situation to yours. Please tell me..
