Methadone & Suboxone
Finally off methadone after 8 years

Eight years on methadone maintenance. Every time I tried to taper the withdrawals were brutal and I'd go right back up on my dose. My methadone clinic wasn't exactly motivated to help me get off it either. MindScape deve...

Opioids, benzodiazepines, cocaine, alcohol. I was using everything to manage everything. Traditional rehab centers didn't know what to prioritize and I'd always relapse on at least one substance. MindScape developed a co...
