weight gain, hair loss, I feel tired all the time. I have lost interest in doing anything. Nothing excites me any longer. It is like I have lost my passion for life. When I first got on methadone it gave me energy and wieght loss but now it is the complete opposite. I want off this drug and was having the Doctor bring me down 5 mil a week and when I hit 20 mil, I got very sick and they had to raise me up to 40. They said going down 5 a week was way too fast. I don't know what is right. But since this drug no longer works for me, I can't see any reason to be on it. It is a waste of my money.

weight gain, sweating, craving for sweets, loss of sex drive, no passion for life. Can't concentrate and have became a hermit. I never even want to go outside, let alone meet people or even visit old friends. Feel like I could be in a cave with a boulder over the entryway and I would be just fine. Was taking over 100 mg a day but am now down to 15 mg!! It has taken me a year to get here, that is how bad the withdrawal is. This drug has seeped into my very soul. I am afraid that I will not be able to get all the way off at this rate.
