Hi im new here, im starting my detox in the morning from heroin, been smoking 3-4 bags daily for just under a year now. Kickstarting with a night on amphetamine tonight as I know in the morning ill wake up normal instead of the usual aches and pains (no idea why amphetamine helps with my withdrawals so much it just does!) And ive got a stock of mirtazapine and amitriptyline to help with the anxiety further on.
well ive joined looking for a) a little support as my friends/family dont know im on any opiates nevermind starting my rip! and b) anyone In the same position so we can try and keep each other motivated

Welcome to the site

I'm curious as to how a come down from amphetamine will help your detox from Heroin ? The come downs from stims can be pretty brutal so I cannot imagine that added to WD from something like Heroin?

If your adding to the mix of wd with Amitrityline then I have to ask - who advised you of this detox? It just sound horrendous.

If anyone reads this post then I would never, ever suggest this as a detox or a taper schedule.

I have absolutely no idea why amphet helps me so much! It seems to cut the pain in at least half, and keeps my mind occupied elsewhere so I dont sit and obsess over going to pick up a bag. Ive had a few friends in the past who have done a complete detox on amphetamine alone. And I suppose that a comedown would be pretty brutal on top of wd but the trick is not to take too much phet so your twitchy as hell and not too little either.
the amitriptyline is for the anxiety. I know both these things help me when I wd. Don't know why and im sure they wouldn't work for everyone! I suppose we all just work differently. I wouldnt tell anyone that this is a cure all for them, just trial and error lets me know it will for me and selfish as it sounds thats all I care abt at the mo!
