I know that there are questions approximately detoxing off meth but i really havent found any other boards to be helpful.
My situaiton is this. I am currently involved with someone who is a heroin addict after being clean for 5 yrs he got caught up using again. Well after being in and out detox after detox after rehab after rehab he decided to go on Methadone for a while. Well he was at 60 then went up to 80 then went back to 60 then to 40. He has only been on the meth for 4 1/2 mos. He decided since he is approximately to have a child and has not worked that he would like to get his life back on track. He asked his dr to ween him off the meth which was apparently being done.(2mg a day) Well he took it upon himself to stop taking the meth and start doing H again just so the detox off meth wouldnt be so bad. He did the H for 2 weeks and saved his Meth. Well he has not gone to go get his dose of Meth in lively a week. But again he did have his backup. He weened himself off apparently just like they did in the rehabs. Well he has the normal kicking symptoms, insomnia, cramps, and he just started to vomit, once but enough to get his symptoms of kicking off and running. We have read that Buprenex helps someone kick Meth. Is there anyone out there that can help me help him. His family is supportive of him coming off the meth. FOr the last yr i have stuck by him as he has stole from his family, and spent whatever money he got on drugs. I have told him that there is a line that is drawn. He tends to think and tells me that is you love someone you are to stick by them no matter what, no mattre how many times they screw up. I disagree to a point. But he is dealing with this and i am extremly proud of him. I want to help him finally come over this hurdle. HELP!!!!
