Overcoming methadone addiction requires a structured and supportive approach. Traditional therapies like individual and group counseling help men understand and manage their dependence. At Sacred Journey, our addiction recovery programs enhance this process with experiential therapy that connects physical movement and emotional awareness. Outdoor and interactive activities help men express emotions, build resilience, and strengthen recovery through real-time experiences in nature.
Methadone, or as it’s often known on the streets as Done, Methadose, Dolls, Fizzies, Wafers, Juice, Green dragons, Greenies, 40s, Green apples, is often used to treat opioid dependence, but it can become addictive when misused. Dependence develops as the body adjusts to regular use, causing withdrawal symptoms and cravings when doses are missed. Over time, methadone addiction can impact a man’s physical health, emotional stability, and daily responsibilities.
Common signs include using methadone outside prescribed doses or without medical supervision, feeling unable to stop despite adverse consequences, and experiencing withdrawal symptoms such as muscle aches, anxiety, or restlessness. Many men begin to prioritize methadone over relationships or work and require higher doses to feel the same effects. Early treatment can reverse many of these issues and help men restore balance, health, and stability in their lives.
From the first day, clients join a community focused on healing and personal growth. Every part of treatment is structured to restore confidence, health, and purpose.
