Methadone clinic - Community must speak up on issue

[curious1]

I do have info to contact them, just give me some time to find it and get it together. I'll then post it on here so you can get it but if you search them it may be quicker. An online petition may turn out to be beneficial...

Hello please wake up from your coma!

I could agree that these doctors have no other skills that apply anywhere else in the medical field, however, you need to research what the medicine was created for and how it is suppose to be used or distributed. It isn't the makers or takers issues if their counselors or doctors aren't regulating it the way it is suppose to be done. Nor is it the ADDICTS fault if they don't understand the full process of it. They are addicts. And as far as a drug helping people come off drugs, trust me, this is miracle medicine! I would much rather have someone take a suboxone when they get up and be able to function normally without the constant chasing of their addiction than for them to get up and start chasing and continue chasing all day, then do the same the next day plus have all the other concerns follow...maybe like putting their families in danger cause they really can't afford their addiction and owe an outrageous amount to their dealer...they flip out and take it out on the ones they love because they can't get their drug. And no amount of love they have for someone is enough to make em quit, their bodies come to a stage that they have to have this or they will die! You need to do some research before you get on here telling people to wake up from their coma...are you an addict? Do you have a loved one that's an addict? Wouldn't you want them to take a medication to where they can function daily or would you rather have them steal cheat lie and even do it to you just to continue chasin'? Talk about something you understand and don't go judgin' less you been there.

All across the appalachians these for profit carpetbaggers are trying to force their businesses into our communities, they're trying to open several here in Kentucky right now. Do whatever you have to do to send these criminals back to their failed businesses in the cities on the east coast they're trying to escape from, so they can stay in business on your dime.

Dear Wondering,
Why dont you wake up from YOUR OWN COMA and educate yourself on a topic before you comment on it. Methadone was created for a purpose, and that is to help people get off of drugs. It blocks out opiates, and prevents a high, you dumbass.
I really hate stupid people!

I have 9+ years clean and sober. I know what I am talking about. Even the manufacture of Methadone says that no one under any circumstance should take this for more than two weeks. It is more addicting then any other drug you can take. Please take your own advice and research the topic and exactly what Methadone is and the proper way to use it. No one needs to take a drug everyday to keep from taking drugs. How in the hell do you even make since out of that. Take a drug to fix your drug problem. Common Sense is lacking here.

Why don't you go back and read my 50+ posts on this thread. Then you might be able to talk to me. I have 9+ years clean and sober. I have sponsered over 30 people in the program. You know the program that gets people clean and sober. A Methadone clinic is not a program to get you clean and sober. Just a program that gets you addicted to a drug that is more addicting than all other drugs. I really do not think you want to challenge me to a "who knows more about addiction" trivia quiz. You would lose. I am a recovering addict dumbass! I have lived the on both sides of addiction. Have you?

Dumbass, you say? Well, I guess I'm the dumbass that has never done any type of illegal drug....therefore I've NEVER been an addict, like yourself. Wow, I guess that makes you the dumbass afterall. Dumb enough to start doing drugs in the first place.
Oh and btw, I'd be more than happy to take the addiction trivia quiz with your "dumbass." You see, I graduated from WVU. I have 3 different degrees. And I'm sure you're the guy ringing my groceries up at Walmart, or maybe even the guy that picks up my trash. Either way, we both know who the dumbass is here. Why don't you go on now and take another hit, or do another line (you know you want to), and leave the people that have a successful life alone.
Idiot.

ok ur such a reeeee to the tard.ill tell you what put your real name on here u wimp ima put mine ill beat the breaks off your trashy ass you god da*n raggady mouth biioooootch...yea i said it u silly goose

[coconuts]

re to the tard is pretty original! abcdefg, while yes, it is the smart thing to have never done drugs in the first place,(I haven't either, for the record), who are you to judge somebody?! You never know what someone could have went through in their life that led them to drug addiction. I'm happy you have your three degrees from WVU (I graduated college with honors myself, but does that make me any better or worse than anybody else? Nope), but apparently you didn't learn that much if you are so immature and mean-spirited to try to tempt a recovering addict into doing drugs again (do a line, you know you want too--Really?? That's what your education taught you?!) Honey, those three degrees are not a pass to look down on people who haven't been afforded the same opportunities in life as you. Those three degrees do not make you any more significant of a life in this world than a "garbage collector". At least Walmart cashier and garbage collection is a respectable paycheck. And you should be grateful that you aren't in their position rather than looking down on them, because karma is a beast and will knock you down FAST!! I am a C.O.O., but I respect the man that picks up my garbage, I appreciate the waiter or waitress that serves me at a restaurant...If the frycook at McDonalds is happy and kind, they are 100 times more successful than a rude person with a doctorate from Harvard. Those degrees need an etiquette course certificate added to them.

ANYONE HAVE INFO wrote:

Does anyone have contact information for SHAMSHA? Is there any information on anything tat could be done to report the Beaver clinic? How about a ONLINE PETITION ?

Don't waste your time. SAMSHA is a joke. So is Merrit Moore who licenses the methadone clinics in WV. His contract policy allows them to only verbally offer to detox someone once a year. WV loves the TAX money from CRC. Don't waste your time, this clinic won't close. The Raleigh Co. Medical Society and the WV Medical Society are your only hopes. Contact them. Have them lobby for a change in the WV Code.

I know my spelling don't verify most of it, but at my age the mind slips a little thats why most smart people carry a small tech book in their pocket for reference.
Now!! It isn't a disgrace to me on drugs,, but it is a disgrace to stay on them, after loosing home Car money Job ect so on and so forth.
But the person you replied to is surly well educated on what she or he is posting,,.

Wow! You spent all the money and time to go to college and get three degrees. Didn't help at all now did it. The drugs are my past. Just remember drug addicts always get what they want. Normal people only get what they do not want. So enjoy your little life. I will always have more experience doing everything. You have nothing except your little world revolving around your BIG HEAD! Enjoy it while your little universe still exists. Oh Yeah I have a great job with all the perks. My life is way more full then yours will ever be. Goodbye....

Thanks. In 14 years of Management I have had quite a few arrogant college educated people work for me. They usually do not have enough common sense to do the job. I now work in Bankruptcy Law, trying to help those who have had bad things happen in their life and are trying to get back on their feet and keep what they worked so hard to have. Again...Thanks for the support. My support system is what got me to where I am today. Could not have done it by myself. Have a good day.

So how is everything in Dunbar these days? I still remember paying 10 cents to cross the Dunbar bridge with my bike when I was young. My that has been awhile ago. Thanks for the support and the back up. I really do appreciate it.

Dear Dumbass..
Get a life, seriously. I find it very amusing that you are threatening me with bodily injury. I'm sure you just want to come through the computer right now...LOL. If you're so offened by my comments, why dont you stop logging on. It doesn't take a genius to figure that out. You see, no matter what you put on here, I will always out smart you. So just get over it, and find something else to occupy your time. I'm sure you have some food stamps or a welfare check to go spend.
Have a nice day, Dumbass.

First of all the METH clinics are supposed to help drug addicts. Many of them maybe do participate thinking it will get them off drugs - well it very well may take them off the drug of their choice BUT WHOA - then they realize they are hooked on the meth. Each day a "patient" goes for their high they have to pay SO WELL - here goes crime rate - THEY WILL CON, LIE AND STEAL to get the money to go to the meth clinics (I've had people I know lie and ask me for money for something AND OFF THEY GO LAUGHING TO THE CLINIC, ugh DISGUSTING. The addicts need LOCKED AWAY FOR QUITE A WHILE and to be slowly "weaned off their drugs like alcoholics are weaned from their drink". A little counseling could not hurt anthing but the main thing is the ADDICT has to want to quit...

If you want off, its up to you to get off...say you don't want to do it anymore and then you don't do it anymore. You set your mind to it and you fight it yourself and do it. Only you can control your own life.

Its not that easy for some baby girl.

This is quoted from the Register Herald from 11-12-09: " Deon Nicole Toler, 25, of Pineville, was charged with DUI causing death as a result of the wreck that killed Stacy Wayne McLamb, 31, Staton said. The wreck occurred Oct. 13, near Pineville.

Toler’s vehicle reportedly veered into the left lane, striking McLamb’s vehicle head on, according to authorities. Accident scene analysis also confirmed she was traveling at a high rate of speed, Staton said.

Toxicology reports indicate Toler had levels of benzodiazepams and methadone in her blood at the time of the wreck, Staton said."

I realize that a person can get Methadone from a private doctor for pain purposes. I do not know where Toler got her Methadone or if she was a patient at the Beckley Treatment Center. Maybe a reader of this forum is privy to this information and can share. How did this moron get her methadone, and tranquilizers? Who ever assisted her should be charged with accessory to murder.
