I've seen tons of threads on here about using loperamide for withdrawal which I agree 100% it works, however I don't see many on the withdrawal from loperamide itself. I've been a long time opiate user with pretty much any kind of opiate imaginable. Recently I started using loperamide because I lost my job and barely had money. I enjoyed it to start but eventually I was just maintaining. I was using far less than some other people who have posted here, anywbere from 50-100mg a day. I recently tried quitting cold turkey and it's awful. Like worse than all other withdrawals I've had. I'm on day 5 and it just seems to keep getting worse. Ive never withdrawled from methadone but I hear it's similar. I'm taking clonodine and gabapentin which help a ton but regardless I still feel like absolute shit. I would do anything for something to help me sleep like benzos but I that's not in the works. The clonodine was helping me sleep at first and now it just makes me dizzy. The gabapentin actually makes me wired. I would trade regular H withdrawal for this any day. I just hope I'm close to being on the back end of this. I cant imagine how bad some of the people taking way more than I was must have felt. Stay far away from this shit. I didn't even touch on the shit it can do to your heart. Just not worth it.
