You usually need to wean off of this med--slowly decreasing the dose. Sometimes, if you just can't do it, you may need therapy--other meds, or even inpatient care, for a while.

Get into a treatment program for getting off methadone -- don't do it yourself, get into treatment... and do whatever they tell you (or whomever has this problem) no matter what they ask of you (or whomever)
