So I'm about to try and finally kick my h habit. Ive been using a little under a bun a day for the past 2 months. I got clonodine, clonazepam some bud and some zofran? i think thats u spell it. anyways my question is this about how long do you guys think the acute withdrawals will last like the pains cramps and nausea because thats the hardest part for me. I've been dealing with insomnia my entire life and am pretty use to it so I'm not to afraid of that when going to work but i can't go back barely able move. i plan on taking kpins as needed along with the clonondine for around a week or two then stopping the kpins and switching to something like ambien if i desperately need sleep. (which i also have). also I'm heard loperamide the anti diaherea medicine is good for w/ds. how many mgs should i take they come in 2mg pills where I'm from. any help would be appreciated and hopefully ill get this monkey off my back once and for all this time.
 
About one week to 2 weeks then another two weeks of insomnia and anxiety. All in all about a month but the most sever is a week to 2 weeks after that you slowly get better.
 
for H? most severe is 7-14 days?? Maybe for a champion 2+ year habit. the worst will be over in a week and then another week to get to 90-99%.
 
Unless it's your first detox and you were doing a tiny amount, your detox is not going to be a one week wham bam thank you mam, I feel wonderful. It takes much longer than that. The acute withdrawal itself, wont even end for over a couple weeks, followed by another couple months of PAWS and some other lingering physical side effects like insomnia, sweating, etc.

If it was as simple as being sick for a week, then right as rain.. there wouldn't be millions of addicts out there struggling to detox and get clean.
 
Also, just to touch on the insomnia thong, just deal with it, I have taken copious amounts of benzos and sedatives during the acute phase but nothing works man. Low dose seroquel was the only thing that helped and even that was hit or miss...I suggest downloading a shit load of comedies and just ride it out...live in a hot bath if u need to for the first week, like everyone said.....about a month to get to about 80% after about 8-10 days u will start to feel more human a bit more each day
