Hi there ~
I understand your situation. Any kind of methadone is not good for you. You need to see a substance abuse counselor for the same. I am glad you are seeking help. The best way to find help is to walk into the emergency room and let them know that you are in need of help for substance abuse for methamphetamine. I am sure it will take a lot of courage and I am sure you have enough of it.
Take care and have a lovely day! Wish you good recovery!
