Question by Heather: Will the pain of the talking for methadone cold turkey ever end?
I I am on 7 day detox off methadone. I had .to go cold turkey because I moved from New York to Ohio. I’ve been on 150 milligrams for four years now and did not meet the transfer requirements for this clinic in Ohio. I had to move here because I lost my house during Hurricane sandy I had no other option but here. I have no help it’s horrible I do not suggest doing it cold turkey. but in the same breath I know it can be done cause I’m doing I have two children a.m. for the husband I can barely do I have to get a shower and a week and I can barely function but somehow I manage. my mom has been a support system for me my husband um had lung surgery so he had to stay behind I think getting into client we more right for out of state travel for natural disasters to help with the process. I didn’t have a choice I had to do it was no other option I took my last till April 22nd today table 29th hopefully today will be better than yesterday. I’m going through once and had diarrhea everyday but the pain in my back in my stomach is the worst. hindsight is always 20/20 I wish I never went on the methadone program but what can you do I had major surgery and lost my life about me that I had major surgery so I was on very high pain killers by the time I get home and didn’t have no more already too far into the opiate grip. I just wish I knew then what I know now and I would have never gotten a program or I would not want to live in 15 or grants for four years because a disaster like but I don’t have a choice so I got to keep on going to my kids especially they need a mother back.

Looking for a Drug-Free Psych Doctor for My Son.?

Question by Dawn: Looking for a drug-free Psych doctor for my son.?
My son who is 22 has taken long-term medications for his OCD, one anti-psychotic for nearly seven years! In the last few months, his Psych. doc has had to change his SSRI medication over and over, due to side effects as well, but these seem to be causing more side effects and problems. He is either manic or can barely keep his eyes open. I am seeking a Psychiatrist who can wean my son off of all of his meds under supervision (my son’s desire as well) and treat his issues drug-free if possible. Prefer a doctor in Washington state (where we live), Oregon or Northern California. The Psych docs here (we are in a small town) in the last few days, have only wanted to sub new meds for the old, many of these drugs have long-term serious health risks. Please help us if you have any leads for us. Thank you all so very much.

I’m doing a research paper on this and I’m having trouble finding these statistics.

Answer by Max Hoopla
You would have to find it on a state to state basis. The need is higher than the population in general because the type of people who become prison inmates abuse their bodies with high drug, alcohol and tobacco use combined with general neglect. On average they have a life expectancy about five years less than normal people.
