Guest guest Posted October 12, 2005 Report Share Posted October 12, 2005 I have seen it, it's a dark documentary but very well produced. I know of one person who was treated with methadone for heroin addiction and unfortunately, she didn't make it. I don't know a lot about it but the addiction to methadone doesn't seem much better than a heroin addiction except you can get it legally, jmo. In a message dated 10/12/2005 2:24:08 P.M.

Guest guest Posted October 13, 2005 Report Share Posted October 13, 2005 I watched this documentory and found that it was fairly accurate in its portrayal of the '...dark side...' of opiate drugs. I base this opinion on years of drug counseling experience. I refer to them in this context as drugs instead of medications, as I feel that the term medication should be used for proper medical use of these pain relieving agents. Any way, I have been taking Methadone as part of a Pain Management program for going on two years. It has been doing a good job with long term pain relief. I have also been taking Restoril for the same period, for sleep. I have never experienced any '...high...' feeling, as the Methadonia program indicated, with the restoril. I take both medications as directed by my physician. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
