The Dangers of Methadone

Thursday, August 13th, 2009

I have been taking a high number of calls recently from people wanting to stop taking methadone.

I know I read and see things on the news about a methadone clinic being a great help to cleaning up the drug community. They are praised as being helpful to the addict.

Well okay, however they are still drug addicts. Some of them sell their methadone so they can get the drugs they really want. Some of people are used by others to get the methadone for them.

It has a high street value and I have spoken with long term methadone addicts who only buy off the street, they have never been in a clinic.   Some likely live a more normal life as they might not have to be involved in criminal activity. However they are still addicts.

All this is is trading one addictive drug for another addictive drug. Do you know methadone is far more addictive and harder to get off than heroin?  Why do this?  Going to methadone for an opiate addiction can a long term commitment.

Do you know that methadone is the umber 2 Killer Drug in the United States?

One has to go to a medical detox to get weaned off the methadone once you know you are addicted.

Am I REALLY “Bipolar”?

Thursday, August 6th, 2009
I was diagnosed “BiPolar”  by my doctor, after talking to me for about 10 minutes.  I was stunned and he gave me a prescription which I guess was designed to help me over this condition.  Before I started taking the prescription though, I did some research and i found out that the FDA and the mental health authorities all agree that medication doesn’t really cure anything -  the medications are strictly designed to merely help control the symptoms of my disease - and I find that a really unsettling thought.  Does that mean I have to be diseased like this and take medicine for the rest of  my life? Is BiPolar an “INCURABLE DISEASE“????? 
Wow,  that question  REALLY  made my anxietey shoot through the roof to an all time high!!!!    So I did some more research and I found out some really interesting things about this disease called “BiPolar”.  I found out that in fact not everyone considers it a bonafide diagnosis.  In fact,  some doctors out there like Dr. John Breeding,  who has great clips on youtube on the subject,  thinks there are tons of better ways to handle stress or symptoms that come from stress, whether it’s mental stress or physical deterioration or food allergies,  or heavy metal toxicity or any of the things that can cause “symptoms” like I have,   and this changed my whole outlook on my “disease”. 
In fact, now I don’t really think I have a disease. What I think I have is “symptoms”  and now I’m searching for ways to find out what is causing the “symptoms”.  Already I’ve discovered I probly need to have my mercury fillings removed (safely) because I tested positive for mercury at toxic levels !   And my naturopath thinks  this might improve my general health to the point where I am not always grinding my teeth and tensing my jaw,  and I might start to sleep better.  So,  AM I really “BiPolar”?  
At this point,  I am going to stop worrying about whether I am or not,  and I am going to be pro-active and get my body in better shape and then I will see if I have made any improvements in my general health and well-being.  If the drugs don’t cure it anyway,   then I don’t really see that as a logical route. I am really glad I did the research,  because apparently once you start on these drugs,  they can be really hard to come off of ,  to boot.  I think the logical route for me right now is to try and find out what is causing the tension in my body and my restlessness at night. Just knowing I don’t have to take drugs for the rest of my life is already making me feel a LOT more at ease.
