[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 647818, member: 1550"] Methodone is NOT a safe alternative. Yikes! You do not know if he was clean or not or if he was using something else that made him seem like he was clean. I know methadone (not the Meth you are thinking of) has been used forever. At least I don't THINK it's meth, like the meth my daughter used. He keeps going back to heroin because his body craves it. It isn't to be mean or defiant or irresponsible. It is so highly addictive that it gets into your blood, and it is more powerful than his family or his job or anything else. Heroin changes the brain. Rather than another rehab, have you checked out particular doctors who may specialize in drug addiction? Medical doctors, like therapists or counseling. I don't even know if such doctors exist, but I always think outside the box for solutions. It can't hurt to ask. SOMEBODY is monitoring these people when they detox, and many times medication is prescribed to make it bearable. [/QUOTE]
