if you ate or banged the pills than the wd should be easier, if you chased it the pain will be worse. The 1st day is pretty bearable. 2nd day is when you usually go back to doin it. The physical pain lasts 3-4 days. I know its left my body when i get the 2 shits, and they are massive shits, usually clog up the toilet, the 2 shits happen within 30 minutes of each other. They are the biggest 2 shits you will have in your life. around 48hrs to 72hrs, i take a dose of methadone and feel great, i do one more dose of methadone 24 hrs later and no more doses again as you could get hooked on that, and thats it after that you get the 2 shits around the 3rd to 4th day, and that means you have been released fr4om her grip. i use this method for my last few withdrawals and its been the smoothest way out, literally feeling good out.
i also have used ghb when i didnt have access to methadone, where i would g myself out (5ml g's me out, body weight 180lbs, you'd need atleast 150ml for the wd) every 4hrs, as soon as i'd wake up, i'd oral syringe 5ml to 6ml and within 5-10minutes i would be asleep for 3 to 4 hrs. it was tough, as i was 7mnths straight 1gr a day of chasin' brownsugar, sometimes a kodak(17.5gr) every 3 days, 1gr was to pace myself as i would do more a day if i had more around.
You have great lucid dreams in 2nd and 3rd days when you do manage some choppy sleep.
If you don"t have access to either methadone or ghb, and go cold turkey, that is really tough, time goes super slow, best thing is to force yourself to be busy, quite impossible unless you have a physical job with no people around( i was senior loader as a forklift operator in an ltl crossdock enviroment, so there was no fashion show on how i looked and felt in that kind of environment). Another time i did it cold turkey as i got busted after 1 yr of chasin sugar, and that was just 7 days of horror, what i learnt there was that people literally walking on my whole body back and front, jumping up and down with their heels would cause a pain that would compete with my pain, so it helped, moaning and groaning helps too, you will be shaking your feet as you lie around, that too is a kind of relief, you will overheat and than freeze within minutes of eachother, people would walk all over my back and i would overheatfrom it, and than after they stopped i would start shivering and i'd have 5 blankets thrown over me, and than slowly i would overheat again.i don't advise alcohol as you are doin your head in already and if you drink you start behaving irrationally, and might have actions committed that were not intended, specially if you live with ppl. weed makes you feel the pain more, so i dont advise weed either. Never been much of a benzo user as i always feel groggy when i wake up and feel worse than if i didnt use them at all, but in the 1st and 2nd day they are helpful. the point is the fight is for 3-4 days physically, the metal part is hard if you live in the same room after the wd, and see the same ppl and that is when you relapse, so if you can change those habitual areas and ppl do it.
the pain is gradual and goes to your extremities such as hands and feet when you near the 2 shits. if you using laxatives than you don't get the 2shit as a sign that shes left ya. goodluck and be aware that you usually do your own head in with non rational behavior(like arguing over anything, cutting corners on doing things, thinking that the world is your enemy, seems like murphy's law when it rains it pours with bad luck), if its your 1st withdrawal, its like a bad trip on acid but with lethargy.
