"Some combination of dopaminergic drugs is quite likely to effectively replace the dopaminergic effects of opioids, but unfortunately not the analgesic effects. Or did you find the dopamine agonists to be effective pain-killers?"

That is exactly what I had hoped for.

My fear is that I increase the Methadone back to 50 or even 60 and then develop tolerance to that without my depression getting any better in the long run.

I have lost hope with SSRIs and SNRIs and I think the increase of anhedonia is at least partially due to them especially Paxil.
