How long will I have to deal with the depression/low energy? I can barely get out of bed to use the bathroom or let my dogs out. I just want to lay here and sleep (ha, or try to sleep). I was using acetyl fentanyl and butyrfentanyl - mixed it with 250ML water and used it with a nasal spray bottle. It's been at least almost a year...maybe not that long. Longer than 8, shorter than 12. I'm taking Clonidine and that works for the shakes and sweats. Ondansetron for nausea but only taken one so far. Already on Sertraline as an antidepressant and Atenolol as a beta blocker. My hubby on the other hand never seems to deal with withdrawals the same way I do.

Congrats on your decision to quit.

You are looking at another five days...however because of the short half life of fentanyl you probably have another couple days of the extreme fatigue and dysphoria. Once you can manage to get out of bed, you should go for a walk and get your body moving a little, it will help you feel better.
Trust me. You are making an amazing decision for your life.

Yea as chef said you'll feel much worse for a day or two and then begin to feel much better fast. I'm speaking from experience with a big intranasal fent habit, although what improves fast is the physical symptoms. The depression and malaise will last for at least the normal seven day's I'm imagine. The shorter acting opioids are blessing and a curse in this regard.
Thank you everyone for the support! I'm glad to hear it will be around a week (I know maybe more) before I feel normal. I just miss that sniff bottle and the habit of using it every 30 to an hour. I feel a little better today but didn't sleep well last night. I didn't feel the need for clonidine when I woke up so that is a good thing. Thanks again everyone!
