i need some advice im looking for home remedies to relieve the symptoms of heroin withdrawls, ive been on about half a bag to a whole bag of tan powder a day for a couple of months.

ive tried to kick a couple of times recently but gave up after a couple of days, i need to kick it now though as im going away for work in four days time. ive got 3 days left at home then il be leaving early morning on the fourth day. i havnt had any gear since yesterday.

do you guys think i could be well enough to go away by the fourth day? i really hope so :( ive got some weed to smoke and im going to get some immodium is there anything else i can do to help myself?

please i really need some help and advice here as i havnt got much time
 
Safe bro are you from the uk ? cos if u r io might have a few ideas .
Ass it stands one of the best things i can suggest is to eat a well bALANCED DIET even if u are feeling rough in my experience food has helped me more than most things and cos u got some dope that should give u the munchies
If u r from the uk pm me and we can have a chat otherwise all the best mucker n just try n focus on the good things , i haven't worked 4 over a decade due 2 this shit
PEACE BRIMZ
 
I've never done heroin, but have withdrawn from opiates many times.

Can you get a hold of any prescription medications? I suggest either Lyrica, Neurontin or Seroquel to help with the withdrawals. Also, try to get a hold of some benzos, preferably Clonazepam (because of its longer half life). Trazadone for sleep, works well. And a muscle relaxer such as soma, robaxin or zanaflex.

Over the counter: Ibuprofen, immodium, Advil PM (if you can't get prescription sleeping pills).

Other than that, get some Boost, which is a nutrition drink (because you probably won't be hungry). Stay hydrated with gatorade and drink lots of water as well. Some used to tell me to exercise and take hot baths; however, when you are in bad withdrawals, for me those things were impossible. Just get some rest and ride it out.

Opiate pill withdrawals last about 3 days. I heard heroin can last a week, but don't quote me on that.
 
il try and eat im going for a meal with my parents later so im going to have to, stomach cramps are one of the main things i get when withdrawing though so its hard.

im from the uk yeah what do you have in mind?
 
the only prescription med availible to me is mirtazapine which i will use to help me sleep if insomnia gets too bad.

the benzos im afraid are a no go as i get terrible depression after using them, although i could get hold of some diazepam if i really needed to.

thanks for reaplies so far :)
 
can you go to a sauna? i was blessed in kicking heroin in that i went from a cool place (colorado) to an excruciatingly hot place (louisiana) and sweat it all out. Tons of fluids, tons of fluids, sweat it out.

i wish you the best of luck.
 
what do you guys think about the amount of time i have? could i be well enough to work on the fourth day?

Since H is chemically similar to Morphine, I do believe the absolute worse will be over after three days. Now you won't feel great, but you should be able to function day 4-XX.

Best
 
Oh, and you always gave up on day 2, the hardest one. You will have to get through that one, to get clean.:)
 
personally I find theres no reason you should not be able to go to work. It might not be comfortable and you may be in a bad mood, but you can just suck it up, wait to get out then be miserable without anyone seeing. Just pretend you have the flu.

You may not feel great, but with just OTC medicine you can go a long way in seeming better

the first time it was after three days, i started to feel better so thought id beat the addiction and went back on it (yes im an idiot)

i think the withdrawls will last longer this time though as ive gotten a bit deeper in.

i feel ok at the moment just depressed and lacking in energy i think itl be later tonight when things start turning sour. im usually ok day one until the night time when the goose bumps, RLS and insomnia all hits
 
1st the amount you do is next to nothing you should be able to walk away from that.Its in your head right now when you get over that you will be fine
 
Everyone is pretty much righ, you won't be feeling amazing by the 4th day but the worst of it will be over. I went 4 days cold turkey, i felt pretty rough still. Benzos if you use them properly can help ease the pain a lot. I took them when i needed to sleep and my body wasn't letting that happen.
 
so yeah im near the end of the second day, physical withdrawls arent that bad but im so depressed and its hard knowing i could lift my mood so high within two hours but ive got to try and stick it out
 
Get some clonidine........it really is a life saver for opiate withdrawal, and combined with the weed and immodium it should make it much more bearable.

While it is true to say that withdrawals are in your head it is a complete lie to say they are only in your head. Even the smallest of opiate habits can cause withdrawal symptoms, sorry I'm not sure exactly how large a "bag" is but according to gatman its next to nothing. If this is the case then the withdrawals shouldn't be too bad and by day 5 you'll be well over the worst physically. Then all you have to do is deal with what ever cause you to use in the first place. Thats going to be the real hard part. Don't let your self pride at being able to kick it cloud the other issues in your life. I'm not saying that kicking isn't something to be proud of, it is and well done to you but if you want to stay that way getting past the withdrawals is only the start.
 
well its day three i hope this depression lifts by tomorrow i cant even muster the energy to get showered at the moment, ive been thinking about getting some gear when i come back from work on sunday night since i still want to use to some extent i just dont want a habit again.

do you guys think if i had some smack on sunday night or monday my withdrawls would just start again or would i be clear enough then to smoke some without the kick starting again?
