You'll get there. I still don't feel like myself (though I am still on a low dose of oxycodone.) I think some people seem to get more affected by these kind of side effects than others. I feel like Fentanyl just didn't agree with my system. It changed my tastes completely. I've had trouble with motivating myself since I was on it as well. For me, I feel like it somehow changed my brain chemistry. I was always very busy, very organized and had a great memory.

ve seen of fentanyl detox and my own year long, slow methadone recovery, I think fentanyl and methadone are only different in dosage. The full synthetic nature and side effects of both methadone and fentanyl make them very close tie for the worst detox ever. As I vomit and shat myself in my yard from methadone detox, I remember wishing I was a heroin or any other kind of addict. Anyway, mute point, but wanted to share.
How much and how long methadone use have you got under your belt bullseye?
If its not the Rebif, it could very well be that you are reacting to your own situation (situational depression) or to the physical effects of the disease (chemical depression).

I have suffered through the fever, the body aches, let me make that severe muscle pains, abdominal pains, and the list goes on. The one side effect that is really worrying me is the depression. I have never been so depressed in my life. In fact I have never been what I would call depressed. I've have some really hard times but I've always been able to push through. Now I can't even get up to go to work. I cry over everything. I'm not a crier.
My pain meds stopped working their magic, especially the boundless energy and enthusiasm I would get from them. They did still help me with my back injury pain, but the meds side effects finally outweighed the benefits that I was getting and they became a monster in my life. They had to go, and they did. I've learned to live with my pain in various ways. How is your pain, or, what happened that got you started up on them 3 years ago? Can it be dealt with in other ways?
Because If not I might as well just quit now and remain putting up with major anxiety and depression. That side effect will make me depressed if it doesn't go away.

I am wondering if anyone on high doses of fentanyl 175mcg for extreme pain has died going cold turkey and this doesn't mean the side effects which are like death so i have read. Or has anyone who used fentanyl for extreme pain committed suicide due to the withdrawal.
t feel like crap for a few days after you come off Sub from the residual effects of Fentanyl withdrawals and from just having been on Sub, you're liable to feel the effects from being on any drug for any length of time as it leaves your system, but it would be a lot less than if you just went CT or if you stayed on Sub long term.
What are you going to do for pain after you come off the patches? Whatever you decide, good luck.
I started to work out, dropped all the weight gained from the Fentanyl and the other 8 meds I needed to take due to the side effects of the Fentanyl, and now am on two patches (50 and 12) and on a razors edge as pain goes. Recently had heaps of dental work done. Crowns replaced, amalamates removed etc and my THS went through the roof. The hospital over-seer will not approve my back surgery ( all cardio bloods etc are EXCELLENT) and everyone is amazed I am 65 years old. What is going on?
