I agree with you Misty thank you for taking the time to back people up. Not only are these people trying to get off of possible worst medications or trying to have a normal life its sad to see people bully others because they don't in fact know the entire story!
Just because someone is on methadone doesn't make them an addict or Junkie. I was on prescription medication for 9 years from a bad boating accident. I decided to stop taking opiates and my doctor had advised me that methadone was the best way get off opiates. I'm not an addict, junkie or whatever you want to call it. Has nothing to do with addiction but rather a safe way to get off opiates.
Don't be so quick to judge methadone users.
Can someone please answer the question as I am in the same position. My GF does not do any prescription drugs or drugs/alcohol. I'm on methadone and wondering what can happen.
Obviously think all addicts are bad people. I was on methadone and my partner fell pregnant, was on 15ml when he was born and been off it 6 years. Never will I go back on drugs know matter how desperate I am. If you wanna get clean and sort your life you an addict will, if there not ready or just don't want to then they won't. I kept any medication in a safe in a locked cupboard.
Some men on methadone, a friend of mine included, got addicted to oxy's because it helped him stat awake while working. They get addicted and then, all goes wrong. I myself am an addict of tobacco, doesnt make me a bad person. My friend has been on methadone for awhile now and he is the best person ive ever met. I trust him fully with myself and my 3 children. He is not on a high dose as he has been slowly getting off. But you should never judge, maybe this guy did the same thing, wanted to be able to work to his full capability but couldnt because of lack of sleep or some pain. Please dont assume because someone is on Methadone that they are bad or awful people. They are human like we all are and we all make mistakes, some more than others but, who are we to judge? Im not GOD, are you?!
How negative!! I think you need to scroll a little more and see that you dont have any rights on this earth to judge a person for any reason. We could all call you names, but it won't solve any thing! Think before you act, you might learn a few things!
Wow bro.....im speechless on how selfish amd ignorant that post was. And by ignorant i mean it in both definitions, the way your coming off against addicts and also the fact that you sound extremely ill informed. You said you were an addict yourself, then why speak so badly about the group that you yourself are apart of. Just cuz someone has that label doesnt mean their going to be a piece of sh*t father, person, hunsband, Boyfriend, son, etc...also, you should go back and reread the post yourself, she stated that he is on methodone, which doesnt necessarily mean he is in active addiction anymore. Of course she's worried about him going back to his old ways of course all those questions and worries go through her head daily, why wouldn't they?! And one more thing, the statement you made about "is she worried that he might still be an addict." Of course he's still an addict, he will be an addict for the rest of his entire life, just cuz you stop using doesnt mean you lose the label. A great many addicts are amazing parents. Maybe you're going off of your own experience with all these off-the-wall questions and statements you're making, and in that case, you have a lot of work to do on yourself. And as for the original poster, I'm sorry about the rant and I'm not that educated on the question you asked. I only ran across this post because I myself and looking for the same answers. But best of luck to you
Hi I was just wondering if your husband was on Methadone when you had your children? The only reason I ask is that my partner and I are trying for a baby and he’s on methadone and I’ve heard it can cause infertility?
I had sex while I was ovulating. I had it twice. I was at a festival and was on a lot of drugs and alcohol. If I were to be pregnant, do you think that my partying will affect it?
