    You find it hard on methadone because you might not been receiving enough dose to block all the opiate receptors in the brain.

    Many people function normally, with good level of social and employment stability while on methadone.

    Its very important to agree (with your key worker) a care-plan with clear targets. Its very important that you find some sort of activity/employment to keep you busy all times; this would help to reduce craving by reducing the free time and bordom which leads to increasingly thinking of drugs > craving > lapses > relapse.

    Dont hesitate to ask me more questions on this forum. Good luck.
