I never got really sick like those made-for-TV movies(Lady Sings the Blues etc.). I was jonesing for couple weeks. Weed helps TONS. Pain and withdrawal symptoms.
But I still hurt, so would I take oxy if it were available?. yup. Can I SURVIVE on weed only for pain?.....I have for 2 years....
I can't tell you how encouraging your note is to me I am starting to detox off methadone right now (I take my meds at 2:00 AM). I am goimg to cut back somewhere around 10 mg every few days. I feel free already with this shift in my perception of my situation. ALso, I feel like I am no longer under the thumb of my meth clinic.I am already free because I am free in my mind!!!

Thank you sooo much.:hippy:
