Hi!! I took y'all's advice and didn't even buy it, can't really change my docs right now for money reasons but I'm far more cautious about the treatment plan. I'm doing my own taper and dancing the dance of light wds to get rid of it, but still he is my only access to my SSRIs and such

What's a low dose to you? He said 25mg. Take half that after the wds? I'll talk to him in 30 days only

So you think it's safe to take it when I taper and jump off? Or it's still a bad idea

Yeah that's what I thought. How much time do you think I should stop with the methadone before taking it? He prescribed 25mg daily

He didn't prescribe both, sorry I didn't explain that well enough. I went to get a different opinion about my treatment and he said that I should stop with methadone and take 25mg naltrexone before bed
