What is the worst drug to have withdrawals from?

[Papaverium]

I ate all this food thinking it would make the restlessness go away... of course putting aside the awareness that the stomach cramps are a real thing by day 2. Good lord what did I get myself into this time?
I wasn't even hungry... I just wanted to eat to fill the void, and attempt to get my mind off cravings.

Clonazepam my dr changed my 25mg Diazepam dose over to Clonazepam without checking equivalence so 24mg daily 84 a week man I was fecked only when my regular Dr saw it helps was wtf is this after 3 months of 24mg a day I cut down 2 to 4 mg monthly then changed back to 20mg Diazepam now a year later I still get shocks jumping limbs feel not there i can take 56 5mg Diaz and no one would notice an I would just feel it an no more so going from evivalent of 480mg of Diaz back to 25mg of Diaz has been stressful suicidal absolutely hell I have thought on court action but we will see !!

I second the Tramadol...I was a codeine Addict for 6 years until i heard about Tramadol. (the fact it is a man made opiate should have set the alarm bells ringing) So i ordered some on-line..when i received them i only needed half a pill compared to my usual 10 Codiene phosphate or 24 Nurofen Plus a day And it made me feel fantastic plus it lasted 5 times that of Codeine ...After 2 weeks i ran out..24 hours later i was a mess..it was like being a 5 day old baby with the awareness of a middle-aged man suffering from every shit awful symptom known to man..3 days of Hell until my dependence dropped to a level that suited Codeine again.

For me the worst part of H withdrawal is the restless legs. I can handle every part of it, even the vomitting and nausea, but not those restless legs. I just pace back and forth for hours because I can't sit or lay down longer than 30 seconds. I've paced from 9 pm to 4 am straight once.

I agree, The Restless Legs Were Just Awful..Because it was CONSTANT.. Only a Hot Bath or Walking all day gave minor relief.

 

[cozzy1405]

Soniq...............I concur...Tramadol for me was Hell...HELL.

This time it was the sneezing and coughing. It was so bad my back and neck muscles were extremely sore. Shit sucks

 

[Blake777]

Worst part besides the horrid sweats and feeling of fire in your body, id say trying to find something to pass the time but at the same time not wanting to do a fucking thing.

Everything seams terrible. Then my gf trying to comfort me and me trying not to go the fuck off.

Its really sad

 

[kush]

Worst part is coming to terms with realityand having to accept that you fucked up, AGAIN

 

[dookiehowser]

In my experience, Oxymorphone has some pretty bad withdrawals.

But the worst I've ever experienced is the comedown from a few days of an Adderall binge. Not even meth gets to me like that stuff.

Ohh yeah I feel ya on that one.
Or attempting to come to terms with the idea that no matter how long you stay clean, you are still going to get cravings. For the rest of your life.

That thought alone makes me just want to stop trying to quit and just use. It's so depressing to think, I'm never going to have a day where opiates don't cross my mind at last once. Even if I do manage to stop actively use, I feel I'm stuck in the "once an addict, always an addict" mentality.

This touches home ^

 

[SluttyPeach]

Restless body.. Ugh. You feel like you're full of jumping beans. Also, anal leakage.

This touches home ^

Ugh...yea it does. Made me sad to read tbh lol...add to the fact that along with being on mmt I'm also addicted to xanax and boobies. Well the xanax anyway...or benzos I guess bc I'm rxd xan and kpin. The low dose I'm on still gives me insane wd when I stop. It's like my brain and adrenal glands go haywire..I'd gladly trade an IV smack habit for mmt and xanax..fuck that noise.. I feel like they are keeping me alive, and I want off.

 

[the_farklenator]

When I took seroquel it just made me so tired and unmotivated and I was taking it for sleep every night I'd sleep but then be so tired motivation wise during the day

 

[Sprout]

Heroin, as physical as it is mental. Uniquely torturous.

 

[JessFR]

This touches home ^

Same, I want to believe it's not true. The idea just makes me think how bad I fucked my life up and hope to god ill experience the mercy of dying young. But hopefully freedom from cravings is possible.

Worst part for me is the restlessness, and insomnia and general way in which time slows to a crawl when you're dopesick. Sure it does t last that long in days, but those days are agonizingly slow.

 

[belligerent drunk]

Even though I've never done benzos at all, based on anecdotal and scientific information it seems like hell. And it lasts forever too.

I've been through a couple fairly severe phenibut + alcohol withdrawals, with some hallucinations and all that fun stuff, so that wasn't cool. But luckily the tough part only lasted a few days and while I felt completely fucked in the head, I actually found some kind of motivation to do stuff and had a good mood for the most part. That kind of good mood when everything's pure shit but you know it has to end at some point.

Opioid withdrawals feel different. No mindfuck, but extreme depression is what gets to me. And it lasts quite a long time too. But I haven't gone through hardcore opi w/d luckily, just some strong-case-of-the-flu type of thing that ended pretty quickly.

I've been an opiate and benzo addict, I find physical addiction is more intense than mental.
Hardest opiate to w/d from for me was methadone, the only thing I can equate it to is breaking every bone in your body.
Hardest benzo was klonopin due to the half life, only thing I can equate those w/d's to would be a severe stim psychosis that lasts for weeks.

Detoxing from both is utter hell.
If you find yourself addicted to both, seek medical treatment.

I remember when tramadol came out, my dr tld me it was a non addictive opiod...
I personally preferred it over vicodin and it sent me back to the methadone clinic, that stuff is deceptively strong.

 

[stefx85]

Methadone for shure.. Makes benzodiazepine withdrawal look like a joke. Weeks long of bicycle legs no sleep for weeks..Makes you go crazy. Never ever want to do that again in my life! Even had a seizure from methadont..

 

[Blueser]

Someone a ways back said cigs and I'm calling bullshit. After smoking a pack a day for 4-5 years I quit and didn't touch one for 2 years.. now I just don't feel like quitting that I've started again. Smoking goes well with oxy use, which brings me to what I deem to be the worst WD in the world. Oxys... taking 3-4 30mg IR a day, then run out, or run out of money to buy a few off the street.. The physical effects: steady tears streaming out your eyes, runny nose, sneezing 8 times in a row, which may or may not lead you to shart in your sweated up boxers, diarrhea, dry heaving, get a disgusting smell stuck in your nose, wake up in the middle of the night gagging, insomnia, yawning constantly, no energy, restless legs, restless BRAIN.. a brain that starts thinking of all the screwed up shi* you're think you might be willing to do to get rid of all these WD symptoms. Then because you feel and look like hell you're not willing to go anywhere-- hope you've got a job that includes sick time, otherwise the next paycheck definitely won't be enough for that week's habit and then you're out hocking your valuables.. Don't act like it's not all part of the WD-- it is!
