- Methadone withdrawal is so difficult to endure that users who are dependent and addicted often think that they will be on it for the rest of their lives, or at least for many years.
- Large amounts of dopamine in the brain as a result of a methamphetamine may lead to irreparable brain damage, because the drug destroys natural dopamine production sites.

- The U.S. has recently experienced an increase in the number of marijuana plants which have been destroyed, particularly those being grown on public lands by foreign criminal groups.

Methadone detoxification can be a very uncomfortable and difficult experience. Withdrawal Symptoms usually begin between twenty-four and forty-eight hours after the user's last dose of the drug. Common symptoms include: stomach cramps, nausea, sweating, tremors, extreme opiate cravings, sneezing, irritability, fever, chills, vomiting, paranoia, fuzzy-headedness, hallucinations and clinical depression. Additionally, these unpleasant methadone withdrawal symptoms will last much longer than heroin withdrawal symptoms. Depending on the dose of methadone and how long the person has been using methadone, the symptoms can last for several weeks to several months. Professionals in the field of methadone detoxification share that it is important to gradually decrease your dose of the drug over a period of time instead of stopping all at once.
