Will I start to loose all this weight if I start to decrease my dose from the methadone clinic?
Ok I have been going to the methadone clinic for 2 1 2 years now. I've been really depressed because it has made me gain weight real bad. I know it's the methadone cuz I hardly eat. I weighed 140 when I started and I now weigh 175. It has wreaked my sex life with my husband. He thinks I am out cheating but I am too ashamed of my body and have no desire to have sex. He is also on it and has only gained 5lbs. He's been on it the same amount of time as me. I am going to start to decrease my dose this week. I am at 100mg. My question is will I start to loose the weight once I ween off of this? This has really been making me sad. I don't want to go anywhere. I wear baggy clothing now and I use to wear cute, tight clothes. It seems I am gaining 5lbs a week. Can anyone help me? Does anyone have the same situation? Please let me know. Thank you.

Is someone who's been to a methadone clinic precluded from being licensed as a RN?
I have a friend, Sue, who was trying to become a physician assistant, and was ready to enter a program this fall. Then, another PA told Sue that she might couldn't get a license b c she had been to a methadone clinic in the past. The state board of medicine WV said that it was possible that she could find herself unable to be licensed after graduation. So, she decided to apply to a nursing program, but has not been able to get the state nursing board to answer her question. Also, I don't know if it matters, but Sue does have a medical condition for which she was prescribed narcotic pain relievers. She sought the help of a methadone clinic after developing a dependence on the pain pills, and then entered a Suboxone program to get off the methadone. She's very distraught that she may have irrevocably ruined her life by trying to get help, and needs to know ASAP whether she can enter a nursing program or not.

Are needle exchange programs and heroin/methadone clinics morally wrong?
I was just reading an article about the lack of federal funding for needle exchange programs in U.S., and one part caught my attention that many people oppose needle exchange programs on the basis that it is morally wrong.I personally think that is ridiculous to not give out needles to addicts. The only considerations that apply here are the practical ones. People who are already shooting up will shoot up with whatever they get their hands on. If we can give them clean needles, then they will be less likely to transmit diseases through needles. Which means that less diseases will be transfered, period. And even if you don't care about junkies, you have to realize that not all junkies look like junkies and that said junkies can transmit diseases through other means, as well.Similarly, I don't see what's wrong with heroin or methadone clinics. They have been proven to be very successful in many countries, yet we are very opposed to them here in the U.S. We have some methadone clinics, but heroin clinics are like a taboo. However, they've worked very well in other countries, like Switzerland.So, in summary, can anyone here rail against needle exchange programs and heroin or methadone clinics, based on morals alone? If so, then how what are those morals formed?Sources time.com time nation article 0,8599,1898073,00.htmldrugpolicy.org library tlcnr.cfm
