Opiate Withdrawal
"I have been addicted o opiates for 8 years, so bad that towards the end I was doctor shopping. The fear of getting caught led me to research methadone treatment. I&#039;ve been going to the clinic for almost 2 years and I&#039;m so proud to say I&#039;ve been clean this long. I haven&#039;t had cravings for opiates, nor have I thought about relapsing. I am finally able to take care of my son, take care of my responsibilities, and live my life. I can honestly say, it saved my life. My family was against it at first, until they saw the major change in me. Now, they are more supportive and they agree with my decision. Without methadone, I KNOW I&#039;d be dead from an overdose or in jail."
