back to back pain

bounce, romp, lung, step, and scream. thats me coming down the steps until, as i hit the floor, i pinch my sciatic nerve and i crumble into a jumbled mass. oh yeah, thats why i started taking methadone......the chronic pain.

so what happens when i am done taking methadone and i am in terrible pain? maybe i should just stay on methadone? maybe i am the perfect candidate for being on a daily dose of the junk?

shall i thank Hitler for such a grand sceme of pain psychosis?

Methadone, a History:

Methadone was first synthesized by German scientists during World War II after the United States and their allies cut off the opium supply to Germany. Methadone was not the only drug that was synthesized at this time. The drugs demerol and darvon, both similar to methadone, were also developed during this time. Once common misconception about methadone, or dolophine, was that it was named after Adolf Hitler. This is untrue. Dolophine was named after the Latin root "dolor," which is used in medicine to measure pain, 1 dolor=1 unit of pain. Methadone was found to have quite the same affects as Morphine and Heroin, although it was much different chemically.
Methadone was brought into the United States in 1947, and has been used primarily as a treatment for narcotic addictions, primarily heroin. Methadone was soon found to have a much longer effect than morphine drugs, it's effects lasting up to 24 hours. This constraint was taken into great consideration by heroin detoxification and maintenance programs, and the administration of this drug is still only allowed once a day.
Methadone was later found to be equally effective when taken orally or by injection. Along the years a few not so great affects of methadone were discovered. First, quite like heroin, dependence can develop, and withdrawal symptoms can occur when the drug is not received. The dependence was found to form much slower than that of heroin or morphine, and the withdrawal was not as severe, but was much more prolonged than that of heroin or morphine. Due to these affects, methadone has been sold illegally, and has been associated with many overdose deaths.
Today methadone is still used as a treatment for heroin addicts, and by law:
Methadone is DEA schedule II. The Federal definition of a schedule II substance is:
·Has a high potential for abuse.
·Has a currently accepted medical use in treatment in the United States, or a currently accepted medical use with severe restrictions.
·Abuse of the drug or other substance may lead to severe psychological or physical dependence.
