If you have chronic pain as I do, it should be treated. For people like us that’s really F’n tricky. I’ve been on Methadone for pain for a decade, am I addicted? Yes. Is it legit with years of diagnostics to back it up? Yes. Do I wish I was healthy and could go off? 100%. And I tried when I got sober but I can’t for medical reasons.
I know some people are against methadone, I was never an opioid addict, I was a drunk, so it’s not for maintenance it’s for medicine. I’ve been sober for 2.5 years while continuing my pain management.
Try your best with a LEGIT pain management dr. And be honest about your prior addictions. I’m pee tested each visit which encourages me not to use ANYTHING that would disrupt my treatment.
It’s tough, good luck and best wishes. Pain is still better than being a slave to the dope.
Saaaaame!
