Atoz....don't give up. I think the aa and na is a great idea. Please go. I had the hardest time admitting that I needed those rooms, but you will feel a sense of relief.
I have never taken methadone, but I know when I was in withdrawl, I would have taken anything to feel better. It is so hard to go that length of time feeling that way. Have you considered inpatient? I swear, I am greatful that I got to do it that way.
Please don't beat yourself up. Go to a meeting, there is a solution and you don't have to feel like that again...

Hey Johnny;
The way I see it, it takes courage for you to come on this forum and admit to being human. I've been angry at myself too when I would relapse, but then I get over it and start again. So today is a new day, and a new lesson has been learned, right? Time to re-focus your energy to the positive aspects of recovery. You continue to be a tremendous source of inspiration to many others here. It's all about progress, not perfection.
Stay strong;
Jim

don't be to hard on yourself s*** happens it is what you do now that you had a set back thats important most of us are going to be dealing with the pain prolbems we just have to look at every option thats available before even thinking about going backwards stay strong we all can do this get back on and post let us know you are ok
Atoz,
If we didn't make mistakes in our lives then we wouldn't be human. It took a lot of guts to admit you fell back ever so slightly so be proud of yourself instead of down on yourself. Mistakes are made in our lives so that we may learn from them and understand how we made them so that it doesn't happen again.Please do not be hard on yourself and keep pressing forward with your recovery. Find strenght in the big man upstairs and just know that this crap can be beat. Also remember that you control your mind and not the other way around.
Again, be strong and resolute to what your goals in life are and just know that any road taken has its ups and downs and that you will be just fine.
Take Care,
TH

ATOZ,,,
I am still on day four of no Hydro....sorry to hear about your relapse with
Methad.....If my husband came home with a bunch of hydro....I know I would be weak and give in. He doesn't even know I have this problem.
Now you have to start at the beginning .... you can do it. Take care.
